Detox for Methadone

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