Detoxification is the first step of getting off of drugs, and you can decide to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Parsons provides medical detox, which is carried out with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, utilizing medications to relieve symptoms and make detox safer. An individual withdrawing from alcohol for example might need specific medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common with severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to take part in medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to help them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall health.
For someone who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug recovery program to work on their addiction given that detox is not treatment in itself.
