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

Detoxification is the first part of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you can choose to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Buffalo offers medically managed detox services, which is administered with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, using prescription medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. An individual quitting alcohol for example might need certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to receive medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to help them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have diminished. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For an individual who has been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehabilitation center to work on their addiction given that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
