Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Davenport, IA.

Detoxification is the first step of getting off of drugs, and you could make the decision to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Davenport offers medically supervised detox, which is administered with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make drug withdrawal more comfortable, using medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. A person quitting alcohol for example might benefit from specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to receive medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to ease them through a very discomforting (but typically 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 drug they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For someone who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, the recommendation would be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug rehabilitation program to treat their addiction given that detox is not treatment in itself.
