Detox for Methadone

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