Detox for Methadone

Methadone detoxification is a course of action which must be overseen by addiction professionals within a drug rehab program who realize how difficult and challenging methadone detoxification can be. Methadone detox is regarded to be far more serious in terms of symptoms and duration than even heroin detox, and individuals often revert back to methadone to alleviate withdrawal symptoms or, worse yet, turn to heroin or prescription opioids to relieve symptoms. This is why methadone detoxification must only be done under close supervision at a drug rehabilitation facility which has practical experience in dealing with this type of detoxification, and where the individual can receive additional treatment services to address all addiction issues.
