Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Bellefontaine, MS.

Detoxification is the first step of quitting drugs, and you may decide to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Bellefontaine provides medical detox services, which is administered with the help of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification more comfortable, using medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone quitting alcohol for example might benefit from certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that are common with severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might decide to take part in medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are utilized to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have gone away. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For a person who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be a quick and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol recovery program to handle their addiction due to the fact that detox is not treatment in itself.
