Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Loves Park, IL.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you can choose to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Loves Park provides medical detox, which is conducted with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make detox easier and more comfortable, utilizing medications to relieve symptoms and make detox safer. An individual quitting alcohol for example might benefit from particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that are common during serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to undergo medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are utilized to ease them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For a person who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol treatment center to handle their addiction because detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
