Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Bevington, IA.

Detoxification is the first step of getting off of drugs, and you could decide to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Bevington provides medically managed detox, which is performed with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification more comfortable, using medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. An individual detoxing from alcohol for example may need particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to receive medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to ease them through a very discomforting (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have gone away. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For someone who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol treatment facility to handle their addiction given that detox is not treatment in itself.
