Detox for Methadone

Methadone detoxification is a course of action which should be supervised by addiction professionals within a drug rehab center who recognize how challenging and difficult methadone detox can be. Methadone detoxification is known to be far more serious 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 ease symptoms. This is why methadone detox should only be done under strict supervision at a drug rehabilitation center which has practical experience in dealing with this type of detoxification, and where the person can receive additional recovery services to handle all addiction issues.
