Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - South Jordan, UT.

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of drugs, and you could choose to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in South Jordan offers medically managed detoxification services, which is administered with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make drug withdrawal more comfortable, utilizing medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. Someone quitting alcohol for example may benefit from specific medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur with severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to undergo medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to ease them through a very discomforting (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For someone who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug treatment program to treat their addiction because detox is not treatment in itself.
