Outpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Brewton, AL.

If a person is getting outpatient detox they must go to the center helping them with their detox daily or at minimum 5 days per week in most cases. Outpatient detoxification services are either delivered in the evening or daytime, which makes it perfect for someone who must keep a normal work or school schedule. Some programs may also provide options to participate in treatment in either normal outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detox services and help prevent a relapse.

An average amount of time people participate in outpatient detoxification is about a week. Some programs use medically assisted detox methods while others offer drug free detoxification services. There are times when medications are necessary to prevent deadly withdrawal symptoms, like with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are at times a problem. Otherwise, staff at the program help individuals manage their emotional, psychological, and physical symptoms of withdrawal and cravings until they are safely detoxed and stabilized.

While outpatient detoxification in Brewton is more flexible for obvious reasons, a very severe drawback is that people are at a greater chance of falling back into addiction due to the access they keep to drugs. Ideally, people will then go into a log-term or short-term recovery facility to address the reasons for their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detox is complete.
