Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Claremont, IL.

Detoxification is the first step of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you might decide to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Claremont offers medical detox, which is performed with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detox easier and more comfortable, using medications to alleviate symptoms and even make detox safer. A person quitting alcohol for example may benefit from particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that are common with severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to undergo medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For someone who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug rehab program to treat their addiction due to the fact that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
