Outpatient Detoxification - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Sandown, NH.

If a person is receiving outpatient detox they must go to the facility helping them through detox every day or at minimum 5 days a week in most cases. Outpatient detoxification services are either done in the evening or daytime, which makes it ideal for someone who needs to keep a normal work or school routine. Some programs may offer options to get detoxification treatment in either regular outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detox services and help prevent a relapse.

A standard time people participate in outpatient detoxification is about 7 days. Some programs use medically assisted detox methods while others offer medication free detox services. There are times when meds are needed to prevent life-threatening withdrawal problems, like with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are at times a problem. Otherwise, medical staff at the facility help individuals manage their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of cravings and withdrawal until they are detoxed and stabilized.

While outpatient detox in Sandown is more flexible for obvious reasons, a very severe drawback is that people are at a greater chance of falling back into addiction due to the access they keep to drugs and alcohol. Ideally, individuals will transition into a full rehabilitation program to address the causes of their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detox is complete.
