Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Newtonia, MO.

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of drugs, and you could decide to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Newtonia offers medically supervised detoxification services, which is conducted with the help of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification more comfortable, using prescription medications to alleviate symptoms and make detox safer. Someone withdrawing from alcohol for example may need specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that commonly occur with serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to undergo medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have diminished. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For a person who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, the recommendation would be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug rehabilitation center to treat their addiction because detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
