Detox for Methadone

Methadone detoxification is a process which should be supervised by drug addiction professionals within a drug treatment facility who understand how difficult and challenging methadone detox can be. Methadone detox is regarded to be far more serious 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 treatment center which has experience in handling this type of detox, and where the individual can receive additional recovery services to handle all addiction issues.
