Detox for Methadone

Methadone detoxification is a process which must be overseen by addiction professionals within a drug rehabilitation facility who recognize how difficult and challenging methadone detox can be. Methadone detox is known to be far more serious in terms of symptoms and duration than even heroin detox, and individuals typically revert back to methadone to alleviate withdrawal symptoms or, worse yet, turn to heroin or prescription opioids to alleviate symptoms. This is why methadone detox must 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 person can receive additional rehabilitation services to deal with all addiction issues.
