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

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of drugs, and you can make the decision to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Fair Grove provides medical detoxification services, which is conducted with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detox more comfortable, using prescription medications to ease symptoms and even make detox safer. An individual withdrawing from alcohol for example might benefit from specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur during serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to take part in medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to ease them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal 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 a person who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug rehabilitation program to treat their addiction because detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
