Detox for Methadone

Methadone detoxification is a process which must be overseen by addiction professionals within a drug treatment facility who understand how challenging and difficult methadone detoxification 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 alleviate 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 practical experience in dealing with this type of detox, and where the person can receive further recovery services to handle all addiction issues.
