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

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you could make the decision to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Qulin provides medically supervised detoxification services, which is administered with the help of nurses and doctors who can make detox more comfortable, utilizing medications to ease symptoms and even make detox safer. A person quitting alcohol for example may benefit from particular medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur during serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to take part in medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but usually 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 drug 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 an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol recovery program to work on their addiction because detox is not treatment in itself.
