Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Glen, MS.

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of drugs, and you may decide to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Glen provides medically supervised detox, which is performed with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make detox easier and more comfortable, using prescription medications to alleviate symptoms and make detox safer. A person quitting alcohol for example may need certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to receive medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to help them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have gone away. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For a person who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol rehabilitation center to handle their addiction given that detox is not treatment in itself.
