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

If someone is receiving outpatient detoxification they must go to the facility assisting them through detox daily or at least five days a week in most situations. Outpatient detox services are either delivered in the evening or daytime, which makes it perfect for someone who needs to keep a normal school or work schedule. Some programs also offer options to participate in detoxification treatment in either regular outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detox services and relapse prevention help.

A standard time people participate in outpatient detox is approximately a week. Some programs use medication assisted detoxification methods while others provide drug free detoxification treatement. There are times when medications are needed to avert life-threatening withdrawal problems, as is the case with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are sometimes a problem. Otherwise, staff at the facility help clients handle their emotional, psychological, and physical symptoms of cravings and withdrawal until they are safely detoxed and stabilized.

While outpatient detox in Lincoln is more flexible for apparent reasons, a severe drawback is that individuals are at a greater chance of falling back into addiction due to the access they keep 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 complete.
