Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Dunnegan, MO.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you can decide to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Dunnegan offers medical detox services, which is performed with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification more comfortable, using prescription medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. A person withdrawing from alcohol for example may benefit from particular medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur with severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might decide to receive medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to ease them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For an individual who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, the recommendation would be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehabilitation facility to treat their addiction due to the fact that detox is not actual treatment in itself.
