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

Detoxification is the first step of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you might make the decision to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Plainfield provides medical detox, which is carried out with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make drug withdrawal more comfortable, utilizing medications to alleviate symptoms and make detox safer. Someone quitting alcohol for example might benefit from certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to receive medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to ease them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For someone who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehab facility to treat their addiction given that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
