Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Lostant, IL.

Detoxification is the first step of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you could decide to go through detox in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Lostant offers medical detoxification services, which is administered with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make detox easier and more comfortable, utilizing medications to alleviate symptoms and even make detox safer. An individual quitting alcohol for example may need specific medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur with severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to receive medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to help them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have gone away. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For an individual who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug recovery program to treat their addiction because detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
