Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Farragut, IA.

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you can choose to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Farragut provides medical detoxification services, which is conducted with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification more comfortable, utilizing medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. A person withdrawing from alcohol for example might benefit from particular medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur during serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might decide to receive medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are utilized to help them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For a person who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol recovery facility to work on their addiction due to the fact that detox is not treatment in itself.
