Detox for Methadone

Methadone detoxification is a course of action which should be supervised by addiction professionals within a drug rehab center 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 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 strict supervision at a drug rehabilitation center which has practical experience in handling this type of detoxification, and where the individual can receive additional rehabilitation services to address all addiction issues.
