Detox for Methadone

Methadone detoxification is a process which should be overseen by substance abuse professionals within a drug rehab facility who recognize how challenging and difficult methadone detox can be. Methadone detox is known to be far more severe in terms of symptoms and duration than even heroin detox, and individuals frequently revert back to methadone to relieve withdrawal symptoms or, worse yet, turn to heroin or prescription opioids to alleviate symptoms. This is why methadone detoxification should only be done under strict supervision at a drug treatment program which has experience in dealing with this type of detox, and where the individual can receive further treatment services to handle all addiction issues.
