Detox for Methadone

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