Outpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Wetumpka, AL.

If a person is receiving outpatient detoxification they travel to the facility helping them with their detoxification daily or at minimum five days per week in most situations. Outpatient detox services are either delivered in the evening or daytime, which makes it perfect for a person who needs to keep a regular work or school routine. Certain programs may offer ways to receive detoxification treatment in either normal outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detox services and try to prevent relapse.

A standard amount of time people remain in outpatient detoxification is approximately a week. Some facilities use medication assisted detox methods while others offer medication free detoxification services. There are times when medications are necessary to avert life-threatening withdrawal problems, like with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are sometimes a problem. Alternatively, medical staff at the facility help clients handle their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of withdrawal and cravings until they are safely detoxed and stabilized.

While outpatient detoxification in Wetumpka is more flexible for obvious reasons, a very serious drawback is that clients are at a greater chance of falling back into addiction due to the access they maintain to drugs. Ideally, individuals will then go into a log-term or short-term recovery facility to deal with the causes of their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detoxification is finished.
