Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Davenport, ND.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting drugs, and you could decide to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Davenport offers medically supervised detoxification services, which is performed with the help of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification more comfortable, using medications to ease symptoms and make detox safer. Someone quitting alcohol for example may need specific medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur with serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to receive medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to ease them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have subsided. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For someone who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug recovery facility to work on their addiction due to the fact that detox is not actual treatment in itself.
