Detox for Methadone

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