Detox for Methadone

Methadone detoxification is a process which must be overseen by substance abuse professionals within a drug rehab program who understand how difficult and challenging methadone detox can be. Methadone detox is known to be far more serious in terms of symptoms and duration than even heroin detox, and users often revert back to methadone to relieve withdrawal symptoms or, worse yet, turn to heroin or prescription opioids to ease symptoms. This is why methadone detoxification should only be done under close supervision at a drug treatment program which has experience in handling this type of detox, and where the person can receive further rehabilitation services to address all addiction issues.
