Detox for Methadone

Methadone detoxification is a course of action which must be overseen by substance abuse professionals within a drug rehab center who understand how challenging and difficult methadone detox can be. Methadone detox is regarded to be far more severe in terms of symptoms and duration than even heroin detox, and users frequently revert back to methadone to ease withdrawal symptoms or, worse yet, turn to heroin or prescription opioids to alleviate symptoms. This is why methadone detoxification must only be done under strict supervision at a drug treatment facility which has experience in handling this type of detox, and where the individual can receive further rehabilitation services to address all addiction issues.
