Outpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Lantana, FL.

If someone is receiving outpatient detox they travel to the center assisting them through detoxification daily or at least five days a week in most cases. Outpatient detox is either done in the daytime or evening, which makes it ideal for a person who must keep a regular work or school routine. Some facilities may provide ways to get treatment in either regular outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detoxification services and help prevent a relapse.

A standard time clients participate in outpatient detox is about 7 days. A number of programs use medication assisted detoxification approaches while others provide medication free detoxification services. There are times when meds are needed to prevent deadly withdrawal symptoms, as is the case with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are at times a problem. Otherwise, medical staff at the program help clients handle their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of withdrawal and cravings until they are detoxified and balanced.

While outpatient detox in Lantana is more flexible for obvious reasons, a serious drawback is that clients are at a greater risk of falling back into addiction due to the access they maintain to drugs and alcohol. Ideally, people will then go into a log-term or short-term recovery facility to deal with the causes of their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detoxification is complete.
