Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Wamac, IL.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you can decide to go through detox in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Wamac offers medical detox services, which is administered with the help of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification more comfortable, using medications to alleviate symptoms and make detox safer. An individual quitting alcohol for example might benefit from specific medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur during serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to receive medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to help them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have subsided. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what substance 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 an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug rehab center to treat their addiction due to the fact that detox is not actual treatment in itself.
