Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Sciota, IL.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting drugs, and you may decide to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Sciota provides medically managed detox, which is carried out with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make detox easier and more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. Someone detoxing from alcohol for example might need specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur with severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to receive medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to ease them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For an individual who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug recovery program to work on their addiction given that detox is not treatment in itself.
