Methadone detox is a course of action which should always be undertaken with the assistance of drug detox professionals in a drug rehabilitation facility that understands how difficult and how much of a challenge methadone detoxification is. Methadone detoxification is known as being far more severe when considering symptoms and duration than even heroin detox, and persons sometimes go back to methadone to ease symptoms or even worse begin abusing heroin or prescription opioids to ease symptoms of withdrawal. For this reason methadone detoxification should only be undergone under close supervision at a Finley drug treatment facility that has experience in addressing this form of detox, and where the person may take part in more treatment services to overcome all substance abuse problems.
