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

Detoxification is the first part of quitting drugs, and you can choose to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Wilsonville provides medically supervised detox services, which is conducted with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make detox easier and more comfortable, using medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. An individual withdrawing from alcohol for example may benefit from specific medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur with severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to take part in medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain 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 detoxing from and their overall health.

For someone who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehabilitation program to work on their addiction due to the fact that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
