Detox for Methadone

Methadone detoxification is a process which must be overseen by addiction professionals within a drug rehabilitation center 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 users often revert back to methadone to ease withdrawal symptoms or, worse yet, turn to heroin or prescription opioids to relieve symptoms. This is why methadone detoxification should only be done under strict supervision at a drug rehab facility which has experience in handling this type of detoxification, and where the person can receive additional treatment services to handle all addiction issues.
