Detox for Methadone

Methadone detoxification is a process which should be overseen by drug addiction professionals within a drug rehabilitation center who recognize how challenging and difficult methadone detoxification can be. Methadone detoxification is known to be far more severe in terms of symptoms and duration than even heroin detox, and individuals typically revert back to methadone to alleviate withdrawal symptoms or, worse yet, turn to heroin or prescription opioids to alleviate symptoms. This is why methadone detoxification should only be done under close supervision at a drug rehabilitation center which has practical experience in dealing with this type of detox, and where the person can receive additional recovery services to deal with all addiction issues.
