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

Detoxification is the first step of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you may make the decision to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Ina offers medically supervised detox, which is administered with the help of nurses and doctors who can make drug withdrawal more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to alleviate symptoms and even make detox safer. A person detoxing from alcohol for example might need certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that commonly occur during serious alcohol withdrawal. A person 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 miserable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have subsided. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what 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 an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug treatment center to handle their addiction given that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
