Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Hattiesburg, MS.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you could choose to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Hattiesburg offers medically supervised detoxification services, which is performed with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detox easier and more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to relieve symptoms and even make detox safer. An individual quitting alcohol for example might need specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur with serious alcohol withdrawal. A person who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might decide to take part in medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to ease them through a very discomforting (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For someone who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, the recommendation would be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol treatment center to treat their addiction given that detox is not actual treatment in itself.
