Detox for Methadone

Methadone detoxification is a course of action which must be overseen by addiction professionals within a drug treatment program who recognize how difficult and challenging methadone detoxification can be. Methadone detox is regarded to be far more severe in terms of symptoms and duration than even heroin detox, and users 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 facility which has experience in handling this type of detox, and where the individual can receive further treatment services to handle all addiction issues.
