Detox for Methadone

Methadone detoxification is a course of action which should be overseen by drug addiction professionals within a drug treatment program who understand how challenging and difficult methadone detox can be. Methadone detoxification 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 ease symptoms. This is why methadone detox should only be done under strict supervision at a drug rehabilitation facility which has practical experience in handling this type of detox, and where the individual can receive further rehabilitation services to deal with all addiction issues.
