Detoxification is the first step of quitting drugs, and you can choose to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in La Salle provides medical detoxification services, which is administered with the help of nurses and physicians who can make detox easier and more comfortable, using medications to alleviate symptoms and make detox safer. Someone quitting alcohol for example may benefit from specific medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to take part in medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to help them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have subsided. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.
For an individual who has been struggling 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 and/or alcohol recovery program to handle their addiction because detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
