Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Steinhatchee, FL.

Detoxification is the first step of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you could make the decision to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Steinhatchee offers medically supervised detoxification services, which is administered with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make detox more comfortable, using prescription medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. An individual detoxing from alcohol for example may benefit from certain medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to take part in medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to help them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have diminished. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For a person who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, the recommendation would be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug rehabilitation facility to work on their addiction because detox is not treatment in itself.
