Outpatient Detoxification - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Anchor, IL.

If someone is receiving outpatient detox they must go to the facility helping them with their detoxification daily or at minimum five days a week in most cases. Outpatient detox services are either delivered in the daytime or evening, which makes it ideal for someone who needs to keep a normal work or school routine. Certain programs may also offer options to receive detox treatment in a choice of regular outpatient or outpatient day treatment, to augment detoxification services and help prevent a relapse.

An average amount of time people remain in outpatient detoxification is about seven days. Some programs use medically assisted detoxification approaches while others offer drug free detoxification treatement. At times when medications are necessary to avert deadly withdrawal symptoms, as is the case with alcohol and benzodiazepine medications where seizures are sometimes a problem. Alternatively, medical staff at the facility help individuals manage their physical, emotional and psychological symptoms of withdrawal and cravings until they are safely detoxed and stabilized.

While outpatient detox in Anchor is more flexible for obvious reasons, a very serious disadvantage is that individuals are at a higher chance of falling back into addiction due to the access they maintain to alcohol and drugs. Ideally, people will transition into a comprehensive treatment facility to deal with the reasons for their addiction once outpatient or inpatient detox is complete.
