Outpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Coral Gables, FL.

If an individual is getting outpatient detox they must go to the facility helping them through detox daily or at minimum five days per week in most situations. Outpatient detox is either done in the evening or daytime, which makes it perfect for a person who needs to keep a normal work or school schedule. Some programs also provide options to receive detox treatment in either normal outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detoxification services and try to prevent relapse.

An average amount of time individuals remain in outpatient detoxification is about a week. Some programs use medication assisted detoxification methods while others provide drug free detox services. At times when medications are necessary to prevent deadly withdrawal symptoms, like with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are at times an issue. Alternatively, medical staff at the center help people manage their emotional, psychological, and physical symptoms of cravings and withdrawal until they are detoxified and balanced.

While outpatient detox in Coral Gables is more flexible for apparent reasons, a very serious disadvantage is that people are at a greater chance of relapse due to the access they maintain to alcohol and drugs. Ideally, people will transition into a log-term or short-term recovery facility to deal with the causes of their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detoxification is complete.
