Detoxification is the first step of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you could decide to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Owen provides medically supervised detox, which is conducted with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make detox more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to ease symptoms and even make detox safer. An individual withdrawing from alcohol for example may benefit from specific medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur during severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to undergo medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to ease them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have diminished. 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 a person who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehab facility to handle their addiction given that detox is not actual treatment in itself.
