Outpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Lyndhurst, NJ.

If an individual is receiving outpatient detoxification they travel to the center helping them with their detoxification daily or at least five days a week in most cases. Outpatient detoxification is either delivered in the evening or daytime, which makes it ideal for someone who must maintain a regular school or work routine. Certain facilities also offer options to participate in detox treatment in a choice of normal outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detox services and prevent relapse.

A standard amount of time people remain in outpatient detox is about a week. Some programs use medically assisted detoxification methods while others provide drug free detoxification treatement. There are times when meds are necessary to prevent life-threatening withdrawal problems, as is the case with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are at times an issue. Otherwise, medical staff at the program help people handle their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of withdrawal and cravings until they are safely detoxed and stabilized.

While outpatient detoxification in Lyndhurst is more adaptable for obvious reasons, a severe drawback is that individuals are at a higher chance of relapse due to the access they keep to drugs and alcohol. Ideally, individuals will then go into a log-term or short-term recovery facility to address the reasons for their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detoxification is complete.
