Detox for Methadone

Methadone detoxification is a course of action which should be supervised by addiction professionals within a drug rehabilitation program who understand how difficult and challenging 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 typically revert back to methadone to relieve withdrawal symptoms or, worse yet, turn to heroin or prescription opioids to relieve symptoms. This is why methadone detoxification must only be done under close supervision at a drug treatment facility which has practical experience in handling this type of detoxification, and where the person can receive further treatment services to address all addiction issues.
