Outpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Dover, MO.

If an individual is getting outpatient detox they must go to the facility helping them through detox every day or at minimum 5 days per week in most situations. Outpatient detox services are either done in the evening or daytime, which makes it perfect for someone who must keep a normal work or school routine. Certain programs may also offer options to receive detox treatment in a choice of normal outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to improve detox services and help prevent a relapse.

A standard time individuals remain in outpatient detoxification is about a week. Some facilities use medication assisted detoxification approaches while others offer drug free detoxification treatement. At times when medications are necessary to avert life-threatening withdrawal symptoms, like with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are sometimes a problem. Otherwise, staff at the center help individuals manage their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of cravings and withdrawal until they are safely detoxed and balanced.

While outpatient detox in Dover is more flexible for obvious reasons, a severe disadvantage is that individuals are at a greater risk of relapse due to the access they keep to drugs and alcohol. Ideally, people will transition into a log-term or short-term recovery facility to address the causes of their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detox is complete.
