Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Carlyle, IL.

Detoxification is the first step of getting off of drugs, and you may decide to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Carlyle offers medically supervised detox, which is carried out with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make detox more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to alleviate symptoms and even make detox safer. An individual withdrawing from alcohol for example might benefit from certain medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur during serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might decide to receive medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to ease them through a very discomforting (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For a person who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol recovery program to treat their addiction given that detox is not treatment in itself.
