Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Eldon, MO.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting drugs, and you might decide to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Eldon offers medically supervised detox services, which is administered with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. An individual withdrawing from alcohol for example may need specific medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to receive medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to help them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have diminished. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

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