Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - West Miami, FL.

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting drugs, and you can decide to go through detox in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in West Miami provides medically supervised detox, which is conducted with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, using medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. An individual detoxing from alcohol for example may benefit from certain medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common with severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to receive medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have diminished. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For an individual who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol treatment program to treat their addiction because detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
