Males have a number of different gender-specific drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs to choose from, such as regular and intensive outpatient programs, inpatient programs and sober living options. Research shows that male clients tend to accept rehab help in the later in the more severe stages of their addiction and commonly need more intensive intervention and treatment. Residential inpatient drug rehab programs for males which deliver a robust system of support from treatment staff and peers will be highly effective because the later stages of addiction require full involvement with the treatment process. Detoxification is the first step, and may require medical involvement in some cases, particularly if the male client is suffering with physical withdrawal symptoms or health problems because of their substance abuse. Outpatient therapy typically won't provide this, but inpatient and residential facilities usually offer a vast assortment of detox services to assist male clients through withdrawal as safely and as comfortably as possible.
