Detox for Methadone

Methadone detoxification is a process which must be supervised by drug addiction professionals within a drug rehab program who understand how difficult and challenging 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 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 strict supervision at a drug treatment program which has experience in dealing with this type of detoxification, and where the person can receive further rehabilitation services to handle all addiction issues.
