Outpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Cottonwood, MN.

If a person is getting outpatient detoxification they travel to the facility assisting them through detox every day or at least 5 days per week in most cases. Outpatient detox services are either delivered in the daytime or evening, which makes it perfect for a person who must keep a regular work or school routine. Some facilities may provide ways to get treatment in either normal outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detox services and prevent relapse.

A standard amount of time people remain in outpatient detox is approximately a week. Some programs use medically assisted detox approaches while others offer medication free detox treatement. There are times when meds are necessary to prevent deadly withdrawal symptoms, as is the case with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are at times an issue. Otherwise, medical staff at the center help people manage their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of cravings and withdrawal until they are detoxed and balanced.

While outpatient detox in Cottonwood is more flexible for obvious reasons, a severe drawback is that individuals are at a higher risk of falling back into addiction due to the access they keep to drugs. Ideally, individuals will then go into a log-term or short-term recovery program to deal with the causes of their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detox is finished.
