Outpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Opp, AL.

If a person is receiving outpatient detox they must go to the center helping them with their detoxification daily or at least five days per week in most situations. Outpatient detox is either done in the daytime or evening, which makes it ideal for someone who must maintain a normal school or work routine. Certain facilities may also offer options to receive treatment in either regular outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detoxification services and relapse prevention help.

An average amount of time clients participate in outpatient detoxification is about seven days. A number of facilities use medication assisted detoxification approaches while others offer drug free detoxification treatement. There are times when medications are necessary to prevent deadly withdrawal problems, like with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are at times an issue. Otherwise, staff at the facility help individuals handle their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of withdrawal and cravings until they are detoxified and stabilized.

While outpatient detox in Opp is more flexible for obvious reasons, a very serious disadvantage is that individuals are at a higher chance of falling back into addiction due to the access they maintain to alcohol and drugs. Ideally, individuals will then go into a full rehabilitation program to deal with the reasons for their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detox is complete.
