- Prescription opioids can produce drowsiness, constipation and, depending on amount taken, depressed breathing.
- Over 60 percent (64.6%) of emergency department patients seeking detox in 2009 followed up with some form of follow-up treatment.
Hospital Inpatient - Elk River, MinnesotaAny person who is severely addicted to drugs or alcohol will benefit tremendously by attending a hospital inpatient rehab program. These types of programs are focused towards physical health, mental health and medical stabilization. Recovering persons will have access to medication as well as medical staff around the clock. While not every drug addict requires this level of care, it is useful to those who have severe physical addiction problems to drugs or alcohol. Hospital inpatient programs often last several days to several weeks. Once the inpatient portion of their recovery is finished they may choose to participate at a sober living setting or transfer into an outpatient program.
