Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Mazon, IL.

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you might decide to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Mazon offers medically supervised detox, which is performed with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make detox easier and more comfortable, using prescription medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone detoxing from alcohol for example may need particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that are common with severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to receive medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have gone away. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For an individual who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehabilitation program to work on their addiction given that detox is not treatment in itself.
