Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Eldorado, IL.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting drugs, and you may make the decision to go through detox in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Eldorado provides medically managed detox, which is administered with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification more comfortable, utilizing medications to alleviate symptoms and make detox safer. An individual detoxing from alcohol for example may need certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that commonly occur during serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to take part in medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance 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 a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehabilitation center to work on their addiction because detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
