Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Zeigler, IL.

Detoxification is the first step of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you may choose to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Zeigler provides medically supervised detoxification services, which is carried out with the help of nurses and physicians who can make detox more comfortable, using medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. A person quitting alcohol for example may need specific medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur with severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to receive medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to help them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For someone who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol treatment facility to work on their addiction due to the fact that detox is not treatment in itself.
