Detox for Methadone

Methadone detoxification is a course of action which should be overseen by substance abuse professionals within a drug rehabilitation center who realize how difficult and challenging methadone detox can be. Methadone detox is regarded to be far more severe in terms of symptoms and duration than even heroin detox, and individuals frequently revert back to methadone to relieve withdrawal symptoms or, worse yet, turn to heroin or prescription opioids to relieve symptoms. This is why methadone detox should only be done under strict supervision at a drug rehab facility which has experience in dealing with this type of detoxification, and where the person can receive further recovery services to deal with all addiction issues.
