Detoxification is the first stage of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you may choose to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Hoxie provides medical detox, which is administered with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make drug withdrawal easier and more comfortable, using medications to alleviate symptoms and even make detox safer. A person withdrawing from alcohol for example might benefit from particular medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that are common with severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to undergo medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are utilized to ease them through a very discomforting (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall health.
For an individual who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug treatment program to work on their addiction given that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
