Outpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Columbiana, AL.

If an individual is getting outpatient detox they travel to the facility helping them with their detox every day or at least five days a week in most cases. Outpatient detoxification is either delivered in the daytime or evening, which makes it ideal for someone who needs to keep a normal school or work schedule. Certain programs may also provide options to receive treatment in a choice of regular outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detox services and try to prevent relapse.

An average amount of time clients remain in outpatient detox is about a week. Some facilities use medication assisted detoxification methods while others provide drug free detox treatement. There are times when medications are needed to avert life-threatening withdrawal problems, like with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are at times an issue. Alternatively, medical staff at the facility help clients manage their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of withdrawal and cravings until they are safely detoxified and stabilized.

While outpatient detoxification in Columbiana is more flexible for obvious reasons, a very severe disadvantage is that individuals are at a higher 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 deal with the causes of their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detox is complete.
