Detox for Methadone

Methadone detoxification is a process which must be overseen by drug addiction professionals within a drug rehabilitation facility who recognize how challenging and difficult methadone detox can be. Methadone detoxification is regarded to be far more severe 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 detox should only be done under strict supervision at a drug treatment center which has practical experience in dealing with this type of detox, and where the person can receive further rehabilitation services to deal with all addiction issues.
