Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Warrensburg, IL.

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you could make the decision to go through detox in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Warrensburg provides medically managed detox services, which is conducted with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, using prescription medications to relieve symptoms and even make detox safer. A person quitting alcohol for example might need particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that are common with severe alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to undergo medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what substance 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, there would ideally be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehabilitation program to treat their addiction because detox is not treatment in itself.
