Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Osyka, MS.

Detoxification is the first step of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you can decide to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Osyka provides medical detox, which is performed with the help of nurses and physicians who can make drug withdrawal more comfortable, using medications to ease symptoms and make detox safer. Someone quitting alcohol for example may benefit from particular medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that are common with severe alcohol withdrawal. A person who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to receive medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are utilized to help them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have subsided. This could be anywhere from 5 days 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 an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug treatment program to handle their addiction because detox is not rehabilitation in itself.
