Detoxification is the first part of getting off of drugs, and you can decide to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for several reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Jackson offers medical detox services, which is carried out with the cooperation of nurses and doctors who can make detoxification more comfortable, utilizing medications to ease withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. A person withdrawing from alcohol for example might need certain medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur with serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely decide to take part in medically supervised detox in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are used to ease them through a very miserable (but typically not life threatening) form of withdrawal. Patients 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 detoxing from and their overall health.
For a person 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 rehab facility to treat their addiction given that detox is not treatment in itself.
