Detoxification is the first step of quitting drugs, and you can decide to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in La Grange provides medical detox services, which is conducted with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification more comfortable, using medications to relieve symptoms and make detox safer. Someone quitting alcohol for example may benefit from certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to take part in medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to ease them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have diminished. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are detoxing from and their overall health.
For someone who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehab facility to work on their addiction due to the fact that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
