Methadone detox is a process which should always be overseen by drug treatment experts in an alcohol and drug rehabilitation facility that acknowledges how serious and how much of a challenge methadone detoxification can be. Methadone detoxification is very often far more serious in terms of symptoms and length of time detoxing than even heroin detox, and persons often relapse back onto methadone to alleviate symptoms or worse yet begin abusing heroin or medical pain relievers to ease symptoms. Due to this methadone detoxification should only be attempted under close supervision at a Brooklet, Georgia drug detox facility which has experience in handling this form of detox, and where the individual who is detoxing may receive more extensive rehabilitation methods to overcome all addiction issues.
