Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Natchez, MS.

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting drugs, and you may decide to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Natchez offers medically supervised detox services, which is administered with the help of nurses and doctors who can make detox more comfortable, using prescription medications to ease symptoms and even make detox safer. Someone quitting alcohol for example might need particular medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to undergo medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to help them through a very uncomfortable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have subsided. This could be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For someone who has been struggling 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 treatment center to work on their addiction given that detox is not actual treatment in itself.
