Detox for Methadone

Methadone detoxification is a process which should be overseen by addiction professionals within a drug rehabilitation facility who understand how challenging and difficult methadone detox can be. Methadone detoxification is regarded to be far more serious in terms of symptoms and duration than even heroin detox, and individuals typically revert back to methadone to ease withdrawal symptoms or, worse yet, turn to heroin or prescription opioids to ease symptoms. This is why methadone detoxification should only be done under close supervision at a drug rehabilitation program which has practical experience in handling this type of detoxification, and where the individual can receive additional rehabilitation services to handle all addiction issues.
