West Virginia Methadone Detoxification Programs

Within the state of West Virginia drug and alcohol addicts have access to different drug rehabilitation programs and services where they can handle all aspects of their addiction and substance abuse problems. Included in these many drug addiction treatment services are methadone detox facilities set up to help methadone users successfully detox off of methadone. Methadone detox can be dangerous if it is not done in a controlled setting or the patient is not going through a wean down program set up by their doctor. The wean down program will bring the user to a point where they can stop taking methadone, but the withdrawal symptoms will prevent them from staying off of it and other drugs.

Because of this reason it is important that the addict attends a methadone detox center or a medical detox facility. When this process is complete most methadone detox, centers will help their clients enter a drug and alcohol rehab program where they can work on becoming completely drug and alcohol free.
