Outpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Lansing, OH.

If a person is getting outpatient detox they must go to the center assisting them through detoxification daily or at minimum five days a week in most situations. Outpatient detox is either done in the evening or daytime, which makes it ideal for a person who needs to keep a normal work or school routine. Certain facilities also provide options to participate in detox treatment in either regular outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detoxification services and help prevent a relapse.

A standard time individuals participate in outpatient detox is approximately seven days. Some programs use medication assisted detox methods while others provide medication free detoxification services. At times when medications are needed to prevent life threatening withdrawal symptoms, like with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are sometimes a problem. Otherwise, staff at the facility help people handle their emotional, psychological, and physical symptoms of withdrawal and cravings until they are safely detoxified and stabilized.

While outpatient detox in Lansing is more flexible for apparent reasons, a serious drawback is that clients are at a higher chance of relapse due to the access they maintain to drugs. Ideally, clients will then go into a comprehensive treatment facility to deal with the reasons for their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detoxification is finished.
