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

Detoxification is the first stage of getting off of alcohol and drugs, and you could decide to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Merigold offers medically managed detoxification services, which is carried out with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make detox easier and more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. An individual detoxing from alcohol for example might need particular medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur with serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to undergo medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to ease them through a very discomforting (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have gone away. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are detoxing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For a person 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 center to work on their addiction given that detox is not actual treatment in itself.
