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

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of drugs, and you may make the decision to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in French Village offers medical detoxification services, which is administered with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make detox more comfortable, utilizing medications to alleviate symptoms and make detox safer. An individual detoxing from alcohol for example may benefit from certain medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that are common with severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to take part in medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to ease them through a very miserable (but typically 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 type of substance they are detoxing 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 a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug rehab facility to treat their addiction because detox is not actual treatment in itself.
