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

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you may choose to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Macksburg offers medically managed detoxification services, which is conducted with the help of nurses and doctors who can make detox easier and more comfortable, using prescription medications to ease symptoms and make detox safer. Someone quitting alcohol for example might need certain medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur during serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to undergo medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to help them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For a person who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol recovery facility to treat their addiction given that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
