Detoxification is the first part of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you may make the decision to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Larsen provides medical detox, which is conducted with the help of nurses and physicians who can make drug withdrawal more comfortable, utilizing medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone quitting alcohol for example might need certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur with severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to receive medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to help them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay 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 a person who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug recovery facility to work on their addiction given that detox is not treatment in itself.
