Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Bloomsdale, MO.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you may choose to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Bloomsdale offers medically supervised detoxification services, which is carried out with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make detox easier and more comfortable, using medications to relieve symptoms and make detox safer. An individual withdrawing from alcohol for example might need particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that are common with severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to take part in medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have diminished. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For an individual 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 recovery facility to work on their addiction because detox is not actual treatment in itself.
