Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Idaho Falls, ID.

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of drugs, and you might choose to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Idaho Falls offers medical detoxification services, which is administered with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make drug withdrawal more comfortable, utilizing medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. Someone quitting alcohol for example might need specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to undergo medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to help them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People 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 type of substance they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For someone who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug rehabilitation program to work on their addiction given that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
