Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Granger, IA.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting drugs, and you can make the decision to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Granger offers medically managed detox, which is administered with the help of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to ease symptoms and make detox safer. An individual detoxing from alcohol for example may benefit from certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to undergo medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to help them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For an individual who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol treatment facility to handle their addiction because detox is not treatment in itself.
