Methadone detox is a course of action which should be undertaken by drug rehab experts in a drug rehab facility that recognizes how difficult and how much of a challenge methadone detoxification can be. Methadone detoxification is very often far more severe when considering symptoms and length of time detoxing than even heroin detox, and persons can very easily relapse back onto methadone to ease symptoms or worse yet turn to heroin or medical narcotics to alleviate symptoms of withdrawal. This is why methadone detoxification should only be done under close supervision at a Hazen drug detox facility which has expertise in addressing this type of detox, and where the individual who is detoxing may take part in more treatment methods to overcome all addiction concerns.
