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

Detoxification is the first part of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you can decide to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Lauderdale provides medically managed detoxification services, which is carried out with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification easier and more comfortable, using medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone withdrawing from alcohol for example may benefit from certain medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may decide to receive medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to ease them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain 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 withdrawing 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 rehab program to treat their addiction given that detox is not treatment in itself.
