Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Eldred, IL.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you could decide to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Eldred provides medically managed detoxification services, which is administered with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make drug withdrawal more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to ease symptoms and even make detox safer. A person detoxing from alcohol for example may need certain medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to undergo medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to help them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have diminished. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For someone who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehabilitation facility to work on their addiction given that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
