Detox for Methadone

Methadone detoxification is a process which must be supervised by addiction professionals within a drug treatment facility who realize how difficult and challenging methadone detoxification can be. Methadone detox is regarded to be far more severe in terms of symptoms and duration than even heroin detox, and users typically revert back to methadone to alleviate withdrawal symptoms or, worse yet, turn to heroin or prescription opioids to relieve symptoms. This is why methadone detox should only be done under strict supervision at a drug treatment center which has practical experience in dealing with this type of detoxification, and where the individual can receive additional recovery services to address all addiction issues.
