Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Miles, IA.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you could choose to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Miles provides medical detox, which is carried out with the help of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, using medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. A person withdrawing from alcohol for example may benefit from particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur during serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to take part in medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to help them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For a person who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, the recommendation would be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehab program to handle their addiction given that detox is not treatment in itself.
