Detox for Methadone

Methadone detoxification is a course of action which should be supervised by substance abuse professionals within a drug rehab center who understand how difficult and challenging methadone detox can be. Methadone detox is known to be far more severe in terms of symptoms and duration than even heroin detox, and users often revert back to methadone to relieve withdrawal symptoms or, worse yet, turn to heroin or prescription opioids to alleviate symptoms. This is why methadone detoxification should only be done under close supervision at a drug rehab program which has practical experience in dealing with this type of detoxification, and where the individual can receive additional recovery services to handle all addiction issues.
