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

Detoxification is the first step of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you may decide to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Worth offers medical detox, which is carried out with the help of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification more comfortable, using medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. An individual quitting alcohol for example may benefit from specific medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to undergo medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to help them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have gone away. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance 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, the recommendation would be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol treatment facility to treat their addiction because detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
