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

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of drugs, and you may choose to go through detox in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Tippo provides medically managed detox, which is performed with the help of nurses and physicians who can make detoxification more comfortable, using prescription medications to relieve symptoms and even make detox safer. A person withdrawing from alcohol for example might need certain medications during detox to prevent seizures that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal may choose to receive medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are administered to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detox facility remain at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have subsided. This may be anywhere from 1 to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are withdrawing 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 detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol recovery center to handle their addiction because detox is not actual treatment in itself.
