Detox for Methadone

Methadone detoxification is a course of action which should be supervised by substance abuse professionals within a drug rehabilitation program who understand how difficult and challenging methadone detox can be. Methadone detox is regarded to be far more serious in terms of symptoms and duration than even heroin detox, and users frequently revert back to methadone to alleviate 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 treatment program which has practical experience in dealing with this type of detox, and where the individual can receive further recovery services to handle all addiction issues.
