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

Detoxification is the first step of getting off of drugs, and you may choose to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Douds provides medically supervised detoxification services, which is conducted with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification more comfortable, using prescription medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone withdrawing from alcohol for example may need certain medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common with severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to take part in medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to ease them through a very miserable (but typically 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 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 a history with substance abuse issues for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug recovery facility to treat their addiction due to the fact that detox is not actual treatment in itself.
