Detox for Methadone

Methadone detoxification is a process which should be supervised by drug addiction professionals within a drug rehab program 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 ease symptoms. This is why methadone detox must only be done under strict supervision at a drug rehab program which has practical experience in dealing with this type of detox, and where the individual can receive further rehabilitation services to address all addiction issues.
