Outpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Columbia, MS.

If an individual is receiving outpatient detoxification they travel to the facility assisting them through detox every day or at least five days per week in most cases. Outpatient detox services are either delivered in the daytime or evening, which makes it perfect for someone who needs to maintain a regular work or school routine. Certain programs may provide options to receive detoxification treatment in either normal outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detoxification services and prevent relapse.

A standard amount of time people participate in outpatient detox is about 7 days. Some programs use medically assisted detoxification approaches while others offer medication free detox services. There are times when meds are necessary to avert life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, like with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are at times an issue. Alternatively, medical staff at the program help clients manage their emotional, psychological, and physical symptoms of withdrawal and cravings until they are safely detoxed and balanced.

While outpatient detox in Columbia is more adaptable for apparent reasons, a severe drawback is that clients are at a higher chance of falling back into addiction due to the access they maintain to drugs. Ideally, clients will then go into a comprehensive treatment facility to address the reasons for their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detoxification is finished.
