Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Lorman, MS.

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting drugs and alcohol, and you can make the decision to undergo detoxification in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Lorman provides medically managed detox services, which is administered with the cooperation of nurses and physicians who can make detox more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to alleviate symptoms and even make detox safer. A person detoxing from alcohol for example might need particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to receive medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to ease them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have gone away. 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 a person who has a history 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 and/or alcohol recovery facility to handle their addiction due to the fact that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
