Detox for Methadone

Methadone detoxification is a process which must be overseen by drug addiction professionals within a drug treatment center who realize how challenging and difficult methadone detoxification can be. Methadone detox is regarded 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 alleviate symptoms. This is why methadone detoxification should only be done under strict supervision at a drug treatment facility which has experience in dealing with this type of detox, and where the person can receive additional recovery services to handle all addiction issues.
