Methadone detox is a process which should be overseen by drug treatment professionals in an alcohol and drug rehab program that acknowledges how difficult and challenging methadone detox is. Methadone detox is known as being far more serious in terms of symptoms and duration than even heroin detox, and individuals often go back to methadone to relieve symptoms or even worse turn to heroin or prescription narcotics to alleviate symptoms of withdrawal. Due to this methadone detoxification should only be done under close supervision at a Midway, West Virginia drug detox facility that has experience in handling this form of detoxification, and where the person can partake in more rehabilitation services to handle all addiction concerns.
