Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Wildwood, FL.

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you might choose to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Wildwood offers medical detox services, which is conducted with the help of nurses and physicians who can make detox easier and more comfortable, utilizing medications to ease symptoms and make detox safer. Someone withdrawing from alcohol for example may need particular medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that are common with severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to take part in medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to help them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For a person who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol treatment facility to treat their addiction due to the fact that detox is not treatment in itself.
