If a person is getting outpatient detoxification they must go to the center helping them with their detoxification daily or at least 5 days a week in most situations. Outpatient detox is either done in the evening or daytime, which makes it perfect for a person who must maintain a regular work or school schedule. Some programs may also provide options to participate in detoxification treatment in either regular outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detox services and try to prevent relapse.
An average amount of time people remain in outpatient detox is approximately 7 days. Some facilities use medically assisted detoxification methods while others provide drug free detox treatement. There are times when medications are necessary to prevent deadly withdrawal symptoms, as is the case with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are at times an issue. Otherwise, medical staff at the facility help people handle their emotional, psychological, and physical symptoms of withdrawal and cravings until they are safely detoxified and stabilized.
While outpatient detox in Alpharetta is more flexible for obvious reasons, a serious disadvantage is that individuals are at a greater chance of relapse due to the access they keep to drugs and alcohol. Ideally, clients will transition into a log-term or short-term recovery program to deal with the reasons for their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detoxification is finished.
