Detox for Methadone

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