Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Galt, MO.

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you might choose to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Galt provides medically supervised detox services, which is administered with the help of nurses and physicians who can make drug withdrawal easier and more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. An individual detoxing from alcohol for example might need particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur during severe alcohol withdrawal. A person 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 used to help them through a very discomforting (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For an individual who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be a quick 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 treatment in itself.
