Detox for Methadone

Methadone detoxification is a process which must be supervised by addiction professionals within a drug rehab program who recognize how challenging and difficult 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 typically 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 treatment center which has experience in dealing with this type of detox, and where the person can receive additional recovery services to handle all addiction issues.
