Detox for Methadone

Methadone detoxification is a course of action which should be overseen by substance abuse professionals within a drug treatment facility who understand how challenging and difficult methadone detox can be. Methadone detox is regarded to be far more serious 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 ease symptoms. This is why methadone detox should only be done under strict supervision at a drug rehab facility which has experience in handling this type of detoxification, and where the person can receive additional rehabilitation services to deal with all addiction issues.
