Detox for Methadone

Methadone detoxification is a process which should be overseen by drug addiction professionals within a drug treatment program who recognize how challenging and difficult 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 relieve symptoms. This is why methadone detoxification must only be done under close supervision at a drug rehabilitation facility which has experience in dealing with this type of detox, and where the individual can receive additional treatment services to address all addiction issues.
