Detox for Methadone

Methadone detoxification is a process which should be overseen by drug addiction professionals within a drug rehab facility who realize how difficult and challenging methadone detox can be. Methadone detoxification is known to be far more serious in terms of symptoms and duration than even heroin detox, and users frequently revert back to methadone to ease withdrawal symptoms or, worse yet, turn to heroin or prescription opioids to alleviate symptoms. This is why methadone detoxification must only be done under strict supervision at a drug rehabilitation program which has experience in handling this type of detoxification, and where the person can receive further rehabilitation services to handle all addiction issues.
