If an individual is getting outpatient detox they must go to the facility helping them through detoxification daily or at minimum five days per week in most situations. Outpatient detoxification services are either done in the daytime or evening, which makes it ideal for a person who needs to maintain a regular work or school routine. Certain programs may also provide ways to participate in treatment in either regular outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to improve detoxification services and try to prevent relapse.
An average amount of time clients participate in outpatient detoxification is about seven days. A number of programs use medication assisted detox approaches while others offer drug free detoxification treatement. At times when medications are necessary to prevent life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, like with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are sometimes an issue. Otherwise, staff at the center help people handle their emotional, psychological, and physical symptoms of withdrawal and cravings until they are safely detoxified and stabilized.
While outpatient detoxification in Pasadena is more flexible for obvious reasons, a severe disadvantage is that clients are at a greater chance of relapse due to the access they maintain to alcohol and drugs. Ideally, people will then go into a comprehensive treatment facility to address the reasons for their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detox is complete.
