Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Vanduser, MO.

Detoxification is the first step of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you may make the decision to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Vanduser provides medically supervised detox services, which is administered with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, utilizing medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone withdrawing from alcohol for example may benefit from certain medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to receive medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to ease them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have subsided. This could be anywhere from 5 days 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 been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug rehabilitation center to handle their addiction due to the fact that detox is not treatment in itself.
