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

Detoxification is the first step of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you might choose to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Peotone offers medically supervised detox, which is administered with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make detox easier and more comfortable, utilizing medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. Someone detoxing from alcohol for example might need specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that are common with severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to receive medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to ease them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For an individual who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, the recommendation would be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol recovery center to work on their addiction given that detox is not treatment in itself.
