Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Weir, MS.

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting alcohol and drugs, and you can make the decision to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Weir provides medical detoxification services, which is carried out with the help of nurses and doctors who can make detox more comfortable, utilizing prescription medications to relieve withdrawal symptoms and even make detox safer. An individual quitting alcohol for example may benefit from certain medications during the detox process to prevent seizures that are common with serious alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal might decide to receive medical detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where medications are used to ease them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the symptoms of withdrawal have gone away. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what substance they are withdrawing from and their overall health.

For a person who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug rehabilitation facility to treat their addiction due to the fact that detox is not treatment in itself.
