Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Peru, IL.

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of drugs, and you might decide to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Peru offers medically managed detox services, which is conducted with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, using medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone quitting alcohol for example might benefit from particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to receive medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to ease them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For someone who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, the recommendation would be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehabilitation program to handle their addiction because detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
