Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Beaumont, MS.

Detoxification is the first step of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you might choose to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Beaumont offers medical detox services, which is performed with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detox more comfortable, utilizing medications to alleviate symptoms and even make detox safer. A person withdrawing from alcohol for example might need certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that are common with severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to receive medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to ease them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have subsided. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For someone who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug rehabilitation program to treat their addiction because detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
