Detox for Methadone

Methadone detoxification is a course of action which must be supervised by drug addiction professionals within a drug rehab facility 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 individuals often revert back to methadone to alleviate withdrawal symptoms or, worse yet, turn to heroin or prescription opioids to ease symptoms. This is why methadone detox should only be done under close supervision at a drug rehabilitation center which has experience in handling this type of detoxification, and where the person can receive additional recovery services to address all addiction issues.
