Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Noble, MO.

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting drugs, and you may choose to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Noble offers medically managed detox services, which is performed with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detox easier and more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to alleviate symptoms and make detox safer. Someone withdrawing from alcohol for example may benefit from certain medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. A person 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 typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For an individual who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug rehab program to handle their addiction because detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
