If a person is receiving outpatient detoxification they travel to the center helping them with their detox every day or at minimum five days a week in most situations. Outpatient detoxification services are either delivered in the daytime or evening, which makes it perfect for someone who needs to maintain a regular work or school schedule. Certain facilities may also offer options to receive detoxification treatment in either normal outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detox services and relapse prevention help.
A standard time individuals remain in outpatient detoxification is approximately seven days. A number of programs use medication assisted detoxification methods while others provide drug free detoxification treatement. At times when meds are necessary to prevent life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, like with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are sometimes a problem. Alternatively, medical staff at the facility help individuals handle their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of withdrawal and cravings until they are detoxed and stabilized.
While outpatient detoxification in Lafayette is more flexible for obvious reasons, a serious disadvantage is that clients are at a higher chance of relapse due to the access they maintain to drugs. Ideally, individuals will then go into a comprehensive treatment facility to address the reasons for their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detoxification is complete.
