Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Port Gibson, MS.

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting drugs, and you might decide to go through detoxification in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Port Gibson provides medically supervised detox, which is carried out with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make detox easier and more comfortable, using prescription medications to ease symptoms and even make detox safer. An individual withdrawing from alcohol for example might benefit from specific medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to undergo medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to help them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) type of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility remain at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have diminished. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For an individual 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 and/or alcohol recovery program to treat their addiction given that detox is not treatment in itself.
