Detox for Methadone

Methadone detoxification is a process which should be supervised by addiction professionals within a drug rehabilitation facility who understand how challenging and difficult methadone detoxification can be. Methadone detox is regarded to be far more severe in terms of symptoms and duration than even heroin detox, and users typically revert back to methadone to alleviate withdrawal symptoms or, worse yet, turn to heroin or prescription opioids to ease symptoms. This is why methadone detoxification must only be done under close supervision at a drug treatment program which has experience in handling this type of detoxification, and where the person can receive further recovery services to deal with all addiction issues.
