Outpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Marion, IA.

If someone is receiving outpatient detoxification they must go to the facility helping them with their detox every day or at minimum five days per week in most situations. Outpatient detoxification is either done in the daytime or evening, which makes it ideal for a person who needs to maintain a normal work or school routine. Certain programs may offer options to participate in detox treatment in a choice of regular outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to improve detox services and prevent relapse.

A standard time clients remain in outpatient detox is about seven days. A number of programs use medication assisted detox approaches while others offer medication free detoxification services. At times when medications are necessary to prevent life threatening withdrawal problems, like with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are at times a problem. Otherwise, staff at the program help clients manage their emotional, psychological, and physical symptoms of cravings and withdrawal until they are detoxed and balanced.

While outpatient detoxification in Marion is more flexible for obvious reasons, a very serious disadvantage is that people are at a greater risk of falling back into addiction due to the access they maintain to drugs. Ideally, clients will transition into a full rehabilitation facility to address the causes of their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detoxification is finished.
