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

Detoxification is the first step of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you might make the decision to go through detox in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Truro offers medically supervised detox, which is performed with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make detox more comfortable, using medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone detoxing from alcohol for example might need certain medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur during serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to receive medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are detoxing 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 and/or alcohol rehab facility to handle their addiction because detox is not treatment in itself.
