Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Fruitland, IA.

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you can choose to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Fruitland offers medical detox services, which is carried out with the help of nurses and physicians who can make drug withdrawal easier and more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to relieve symptoms and make detox safer. Someone quitting alcohol for example may need particular medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur with severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to undergo medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to help them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For an individual who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol treatment facility to treat their addiction given that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
