Detox for Methadone

Methadone detoxification is a course of action which should be supervised by drug addiction professionals within a drug rehab center who recognize how challenging and difficult methadone detoxification can be. Methadone detoxification 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 ease symptoms. This is why methadone detox should only be done under close supervision at a drug rehabilitation facility which has experience in dealing with this type of detoxification, and where the individual can receive further recovery services to address all addiction issues.
