Outpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - De Soto, IA.

If a person is getting outpatient detoxification they travel to the facility helping them through detox every day or at minimum five days a week in most situations. Outpatient detox is either done in the daytime or evening, which makes it ideal for someone who needs to keep a normal school or work routine. Certain facilities may offer ways to get detox treatment in a choice of regular outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detox services and relapse prevention help.

A standard time people remain in outpatient detox is about seven days. Some facilities use medically assisted detox approaches while others offer drug free detox services. There are times when meds are needed to avert deadly withdrawal symptoms, like with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are sometimes a problem. Otherwise, staff at the facility help individuals handle their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of withdrawal and cravings until they are detoxed and balanced.

While outpatient detoxification in De Soto is more flexible for obvious reasons, a severe disadvantage is that clients are at a higher risk of falling back into addiction due to the access they maintain to drugs and alcohol. Ideally, clients will transition into a comprehensive treatment facility to address the reasons for their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detox is complete.
