Hospital Inpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Mount Olive, MS.

Detoxification is the first part of quitting drugs, and you may make the decision to go through detox in a hospital inpatient detox center for a few reasons. Hospital inpatient detoxification in Mount Olive offers medical detoxification services, which is performed with the help of nurses and doctors who can make detox more comfortable, using medications to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and make detox safer. Someone quitting alcohol for example might benefit from certain medications during detox to prevent seizures that commonly occur during serious alcohol withdrawal. An individual who is experiencing heroin or prescription opioid withdrawal will most likely choose to take part in medically supervised detoxification in a hospital inpatient facility, where prescription medications are utilized to ease them through a very uncomfortable (but typically not life threatening) type of withdrawal. Individuals in a hospital inpatient detox facility stay at the facility until the withdrawal symptoms have diminished. This could be anywhere from 5 days to 2 weeks depending on what drug they are detoxing from and their overall health.

For a person who has been struggling with substance abuse issues for some time, there would ideally be a quick and smooth transition from a hospital inpatient detox facility to a drug and/or alcohol treatment center to handle their addiction given that detox is not treatment in itself.
