Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Evanston, WY.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you may decide to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Evanston offers medical detox services, which is administered with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification more comfortable, using prescription medications to alleviate symptoms and make detox safer. A person detoxing from alcohol for example may benefit from particular medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to take part in medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to ease them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have diminished. This may be anywhere from 1 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, the recommendation would be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol recovery center to work on their addiction given that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
