Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Camp Point, IL.

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you might choose to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Camp Point provides medical detox, which is carried out with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, using prescription medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. A person detoxing from alcohol for example may benefit from specific medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to receive medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to ease them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have subsided. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For someone who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug treatment program to treat their addiction given that detox is not actual treatment in itself.
