Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Warson Woods, MO.

Detoxification is the first step of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you might decide to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Warson Woods offers medical detox services, which is administered with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make detox easier and more comfortable, utilizing medications to relieve symptoms and make detox safer. A person withdrawing from alcohol for example might need particular medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur during severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might decide to take part in medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain 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 physical and mental health.

For someone 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 detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehab center to handle their addiction given that detox is not treatment in itself.
