Detoxification is the first step of any rehabilitation process, and there are more options for this level of care as well. While there are still plenty of stand-alone detox centers, many inpatient rehab facilities also offer detoxification or have detox units.

There are also more outpatient detox centers opening up and office-based ambulatory detox solutions as well.

The need for detox and protocols to follow vary for each person depending on their history, physical make-up, types and amounts of substances, and other health considerations such as knowing medication interactions.
