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

Detoxification is the first part of quitting drugs, and you might make the decision to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Ingraham offers medically managed detox, which is performed with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make drug withdrawal more comfortable, utilizing medications to alleviate symptoms and make detox safer. A person withdrawing from alcohol for example may need certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to take part in medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are utilized to help them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have subsided. 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 an individual who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol treatment program to handle their addiction due to the fact that detox is not treatment in itself.
