Detox for Methadone

Methadone detoxification is a course of action which should be overseen by drug addiction professionals within a drug rehab program who understand how challenging and difficult methadone detox can be. Methadone detox is known to be far more severe in terms of symptoms and duration than even heroin detox, and individuals often revert back to methadone to relieve withdrawal symptoms or, worse yet, turn to heroin or prescription opioids to alleviate symptoms. This is why methadone detoxification must only be done under close supervision at a drug treatment center which has experience in dealing with this type of detoxification, and where the person can receive additional treatment services to address all addiction issues.
