Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Browns, IL.

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you can choose to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Browns provides medical detox, which is carried out with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make detox easier and more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to relieve symptoms and make detox safer. An individual quitting alcohol for example might need specific medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to take part in medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are utilized to help them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have subsided. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For a person who has been struggling 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 recovery facility to treat their addiction given that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
