Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Filer, ID.

Detoxification is the first step of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you may make the decision to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Filer offers medical detoxification services, which is conducted with the help of nurses and physicians who can make drug withdrawal more comfortable, utilizing medications to relieve symptoms and make detox safer. A person detoxing from alcohol for example might need specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that are common with severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might decide to undergo medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to help them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have diminished. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For a person who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol recovery program to work on their addiction because detox is not actual treatment in itself.
