Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Mooringsport, LA.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting drugs, and you could make the decision to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Mooringsport offers medically supervised detox, which is conducted with the help of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to relieve symptoms and make detox safer. Someone withdrawing from alcohol for example might benefit from specific medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to take part in medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are utilized to help them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug 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 a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug rehabilitation center to work on their addiction because detox is not actual treatment in itself.
