Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Buffalo Grove, IL.

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you could choose to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Buffalo Grove provides medically supervised detox services, which is conducted with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, utilizing medications to relieve symptoms and make detox safer. A person quitting alcohol for example may benefit from specific medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to receive medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For a person who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug rehabilitation facility to treat their addiction due to the fact that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
