Methadone detoxification is a course of action which must be supervised by drug addiction professionals within a drug treatment program who recognize how challenging and difficult methadone detoxification can be. Methadone detoxification is known 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 relieve symptoms. This is why methadone detoxification must only be done under strict supervision at a drug treatment program which has practical experience in handling this type of detoxification, and where the person can receive additional rehabilitation services to deal with all addiction issues.
