Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - House Springs, MO.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you could choose to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in House Springs offers medically managed detoxification services, which is performed with the help of nurses and doctors who can make drug withdrawal more comfortable, using prescription medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. A person quitting alcohol for example may benefit from certain medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur with severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to undergo 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) type of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have gone away. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For a person who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, the recommendation would be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol treatment center to handle their addiction given that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
