Detox for Methadone

Methadone detoxification is a process which must be supervised by drug addiction professionals within a drug rehabilitation center who recognize how challenging and difficult methadone detoxification can be. Methadone detoxification is regarded to be far more severe in terms of symptoms and duration than even heroin detox, and individuals often revert back to methadone to relieve withdrawal symptoms or, worse yet, turn to heroin or prescription opioids to relieve symptoms. This is why methadone detox should only be done under close supervision at a drug treatment program which has experience in dealing with this type of detox, and where the individual can receive further rehabilitation services to handle all addiction issues.
