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

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you can decide to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Hazlehurst offers medically managed detox, which is conducted with the assistance of nurses and physicians who can make detox more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. A person quitting alcohol for example might need particular medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur during serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to receive medical detox 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 detoxification facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have diminished. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For someone who has a history with drug and alcohol addiction for some time, there would ideally be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol treatment center to work on their addiction given that detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
