Outpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Lawrence, MA.

If someone is getting outpatient detoxification they must go to the facility assisting them through detoxification daily or at least five days per week in most cases. Outpatient detoxification services are either delivered in the evening or daytime, which makes it perfect for a person who needs to maintain a normal work or school schedule. Some programs may provide options to get detox treatment in either regular outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detoxification services and prevent relapse.

A standard amount of time individuals remain in outpatient detoxification is about 7 days. Some programs use medication assisted detox methods while others provide medication free detox services. There are times when meds are necessary to prevent life threatening withdrawal symptoms, like with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are sometimes an issue. Otherwise, medical staff at the program help people manage their emotional, psychological, and physical symptoms of withdrawal and cravings until they are detoxified and balanced.

While outpatient detoxification in Lawrence is more adaptable for obvious reasons, a severe disadvantage is that people are at a greater chance of relapse due to the access they maintain to drugs. Ideally, individuals will then go into a log-term or short-term recovery program to deal with the causes of their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detoxification is complete.
