Detox for Methadone

Methadone detoxification is a process which should be supervised by substance abuse professionals within a drug treatment program who recognize how challenging and difficult methadone detox can be. Methadone detox is regarded to be far more severe in terms of symptoms and duration than even heroin detox, and individuals often revert back to methadone to ease withdrawal symptoms or, worse yet, turn to heroin or prescription opioids to alleviate symptoms. This is why methadone detox should only be done under strict supervision at a drug rehab center which has experience in dealing with this type of detoxification, and where the individual can receive additional rehabilitation services to deal with all addiction issues.
