Detox for Methadone

Methadone detoxification is a course of action which should be overseen by drug addiction professionals within a drug treatment program who realize 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 typically 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 close supervision at a drug treatment center which has experience in dealing with this type of detox, and where the individual can receive further treatment services to handle all addiction issues.
