Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you may decide to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Waterloo provides medically supervised detoxification services, which is administered with the help of nurses and physicians who can make detox more comfortable, utilizing medications to ease symptoms and make detox safer. A person quitting alcohol for example may need particular medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur during serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to receive medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to ease them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have diminished. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall health.
For a person who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, the recommendation would be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug rehab program to work on their addiction due to the fact that detox is not actual treatment in itself.
