Outpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Fort Mitchell, AL.

If a person is getting outpatient detox they must go to the facility helping them with their detox daily or at least 5 days a week in most cases. Outpatient detox services are either delivered in the daytime or evening, which makes it perfect for someone who needs to maintain a normal work or school routine. Some facilities may offer options to receive treatment in either regular outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to improve detox services and help prevent a relapse.

A standard amount of time people participate in outpatient detoxification is about seven days. Some facilities use medically assisted detoxification approaches while others offer medication free detoxification services. There are times when medications are needed to avert deadly withdrawal problems, like with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are at times a problem. Alternatively, medical staff at the facility help people manage their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of withdrawal and cravings until they are detoxified and stabilized.

While outpatient detoxification in Fort Mitchell 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, individuals will then go into a log-term or short-term recovery program to address the reasons for their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detoxification is complete.
