Outpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Valley, AL.

If an individual is getting outpatient detox they travel to the facility helping them with their detox daily or at minimum 5 days a week in most situations. Outpatient detox services are either delivered in the daytime or evening, which makes it ideal for a person who needs to maintain a normal school or work schedule. Some programs may offer options to get treatment in either regular outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to improve detoxification services and help prevent a relapse.

An average time individuals remain in outpatient detox is approximately seven days. A number of programs use medication assisted detoxification approaches while others provide drug free detoxification services. There are times when medications are needed to avert life threatening withdrawal symptoms, like with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are sometimes a problem. Otherwise, staff at the facility help people handle their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of withdrawal and cravings until they are detoxed and stabilized.

While outpatient detoxification in Valley is more flexible for obvious reasons, a very severe drawback is that individuals are at a higher risk of relapse due to the access they maintain to drugs. Ideally, individuals will then go into a comprehensive treatment program to address the reasons for their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detoxification is finished.
