Detox for Methadone

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