Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Bismarck, MO.

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you might choose to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Bismarck offers medical detox services, which is administered with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to alleviate symptoms and make detox safer. A person quitting alcohol for example might benefit from particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might decide to undergo medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to help them through a very discomforting (but usually not life threatening) type 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 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 easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehab center to handle their addiction given that detox is not actual treatment in itself.
