Methadone is great for a short taper, it's just for a small habit, it's over kill and methadone withdrawals can be very rough.
If you want to use methadone, use methadone. They both work and if you're only going to be tapering for a week anyway, it doesn't matter too much. If it worked for you in the past, then go for it.
What you have to deal with, is why you're relapsing.. because if not, no matter how you detox, you're just going to do the exact same thing again as you did last time.. which is just go back to heroin starting with one relapse, then another, then before you know if.. you're full blown using again.
You really have to want to stop using heroin deep down for it to work.
