Detox for Methadone

Methadone detoxification is a course of action which must be supervised by substance abuse professionals within a drug treatment program who recognize how challenging and difficult methadone detox can be. Methadone detoxification is regarded to be far more severe in terms of symptoms and duration than even heroin detox, and individuals typically revert back to methadone to relieve withdrawal symptoms or, worse yet, turn to heroin or prescription opioids to relieve symptoms. This is why methadone detoxification must only be done under strict supervision at a drug rehab center which has practical experience in dealing with this type of detox, and where the person can receive additional recovery services to address all addiction issues.
