Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Tampico, IL.

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you may decide to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Tampico offers medically supervised detox, which is administered with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make detox more comfortable, using prescription medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. A person quitting alcohol for example may benefit from particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that are common with severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to undergo medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For someone who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, the recommendation would be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol treatment center to handle their addiction given that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
