Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Drew, MS.

Detoxification is the first stage of quitting drugs, and you can decide to undergo detox in a hospital inpatient facility for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Drew provides medically supervised detox, which is performed with the help of nurses and doctors who can make detox easier and more comfortable, using prescription medications to alleviate symptoms and make detox safer. Someone quitting alcohol for example might benefit from certain medications during detox to prevent seizures and tremors that commonly occur during severe alcohol withdrawal. Someone who is going through heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to undergo medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are administered to help them through a very miserable (but usually not life threatening) form of withdrawal. People in a hospital inpatient detoxification facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have diminished. This may be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are withdrawing from and their overall physical and mental health.

For someone who has a history with substance abuse issues for some time, the recommendation would be an immediate and easy transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug rehabilitation facility to handle their addiction given that detox is not treatment in itself.
