Detox for Methadone

Methadone detoxification is a course of action which must be supervised by addiction professionals within a drug rehabilitation program who recognize how difficult and challenging methadone detox can be. Methadone detoxification is known to be far more severe in terms of symptoms and duration than even heroin detox, and users often revert back to methadone to ease withdrawal symptoms or, worse yet, turn to heroin or prescription opioids to alleviate symptoms. This is why methadone detox must only be done under close supervision at a drug rehabilitation program which has practical experience in dealing with this type of detox, and where the person can receive further rehabilitation services to address all addiction issues.
