Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Marble Hill, MO.

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of drugs, and you can choose to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Marble Hill offers medically supervised detox services, which is administered with the help of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, using medications to ease symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone quitting alcohol for example might benefit from particular medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur with serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to undergo medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For someone who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug recovery center to handle their addiction given that detox is not treatment in itself.
