Detox for Methadone

Methadone detoxification is a process which should be overseen by substance abuse professionals within a drug treatment facility who recognize how difficult and challenging 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 frequently revert back to methadone to ease withdrawal symptoms or, worse yet, turn to heroin or prescription opioids to relieve symptoms. This is why methadone detoxification should only be done under close supervision at a drug rehab program which has practical experience in handling this type of detoxification, and where the person can receive additional recovery services to address all addiction issues.
