Detox for Methadone

Methadone detoxification is a process which must be overseen by substance abuse professionals within a drug treatment program 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 often revert back to methadone to ease withdrawal symptoms or, worse yet, turn to heroin or prescription opioids to relieve symptoms. This is why methadone detoxification must only be done under close supervision at a drug rehabilitation facility which has experience in handling this type of detox, and where the individual can receive further recovery services to deal with all addiction issues.
