Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Weirsdale, FL.

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you might decide to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Weirsdale provides medically supervised detoxification services, which is performed with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detox more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to alleviate symptoms and even make detox safer. An individual withdrawing from alcohol for example may need certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur during severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might decide to undergo medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to help them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For an individual who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug treatment center to treat their addiction given that detox is not actual treatment in itself.
