Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Urbana, IN.

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you might make the decision to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Urbana provides medical detox, which is administered with the help of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, using prescription medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. A person detoxing from alcohol for example may need specific medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur with serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to receive medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For a person who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug treatment center to treat their addiction due to the fact that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
