Detox for Methadone

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