If an individual is receiving outpatient detoxification they travel to the facility helping them with their detoxification daily or at least 5 days per week in most cases. Outpatient detox is either done in the daytime or evening, which makes it perfect for someone who must keep a regular work or school schedule. Certain programs may offer ways to get detoxification treatment in a choice of normal outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to improve detox services and try to prevent relapse.
An average time people participate in outpatient detox is about a week. Some programs use medication assisted detoxification approaches while others offer medication free detoxification treatement. There are times when medications are necessary to prevent deadly withdrawal symptoms, as is the case with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are sometimes an issue. Otherwise, staff at the center help individuals manage their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of withdrawal and cravings until they are safely detoxified and balanced.
While outpatient detox in St. Petersburg is more adaptable for obvious reasons, a very serious disadvantage is that individuals are at a higher risk of relapse due to the access they keep to drugs and alcohol. Ideally, individuals will transition into a comprehensive treatment facility to address the causes of their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detoxification is complete.
