Detox for Methadone

Methadone detoxification is a process which must be supervised by addiction professionals within a drug rehabilitation center who understand how challenging and difficult methadone detox can be. Methadone detoxification is regarded to be far more serious in terms of symptoms and duration than even heroin detox, and users frequently 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 should only be done under strict supervision at a drug treatment facility which has practical experience in dealing with this type of detoxification, and where the individual can receive additional treatment services to address all addiction issues.
