Detox for Methadone

Methadone detoxification is a process which must be supervised by substance abuse professionals within a drug rehabilitation facility who realize how difficult and challenging methadone detox can be. Methadone detox is known to be far more serious in terms of symptoms and duration than even heroin detox, and individuals typically revert back to methadone to alleviate withdrawal symptoms or, worse yet, turn to heroin or prescription opioids to ease symptoms. This is why methadone detox must only be done under close supervision at a drug rehab center which has experience in dealing with this type of detox, and where the person can receive further recovery services to address all addiction issues.
