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

Detoxification is the first part of getting off of drugs and alcohol, and you can decide to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Utica provides medical detox services, which is performed with the assistance of nurses and doctors who can make detox easier and more comfortable, utilizing medications to alleviate symptoms and make detox safer. A person detoxing from alcohol for example might benefit from certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures and tremors that are common during severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is suffering with heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might choose to undergo medical detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used 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 symptoms of withdrawal have subsided. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what type of substance they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For an individual who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detoxification facility to a drug and/or alcohol treatment program to work on their addiction due to the fact that detox is not actual rehabilitation in itself.
