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

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of drugs, and you may choose to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Matteson offers medical detox, which is performed with the help of nurses and doctors who can make drug withdrawal more comfortable, using medications to ease symptoms and make detox safer. A person detoxing from alcohol for example might benefit from particular medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common with severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to take part in medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to ease them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. 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 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 treatment program to handle their addiction due to the fact that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
