Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Fair Play, MO.

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you could choose to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Fair Play provides medically managed detoxification services, which is carried out with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification more comfortable, using medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. A person withdrawing from alcohol for example may need specific medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur with severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to receive medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to help them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For an individual 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 detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol treatment center to handle their addiction because detox is not treatment in itself.
