Outpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Eureka, MO.

If an individual is getting outpatient detox they travel to the facility helping them with their detoxification every day or at minimum 5 days per week in most situations. Outpatient detox services are either delivered in the evening or daytime, which makes it perfect for a person who needs to maintain a regular work or school schedule. Some facilities also offer ways to get detoxification treatment in either regular outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detox services and prevent relapse.

An average time clients participate in outpatient detox is about seven days. Some programs use medication assisted detox methods while others offer medication free detoxification services. There are times when meds are necessary to prevent life threatening withdrawal symptoms, like with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are at times a problem. Alternatively, medical staff at the program help people handle their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of withdrawal and cravings until they are safely detoxified and stabilized.

While outpatient detox in Eureka is more flexible for obvious reasons, a serious disadvantage is that individuals are at a greater risk of falling back into addiction due to the access they maintain to drugs. Ideally, clients will transition into a comprehensive treatment program to deal with the causes of their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detox is finished.
