Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Freeport, KS.

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting drugs, and you may make the decision to go through detox in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Freeport offers medical detox, which is carried out with the help of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, utilizing medications to alleviate symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone withdrawing from alcohol for example may need particular medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to take part in medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to ease them through a very discomforting (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 gone away. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For someone who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug treatment facility to treat their addiction given that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
