268911 tn?1213744781 Be careful with the methadone. I would buy it when my hydro supply ran out. If you have the strength to take it right go for it but I didnt. The WDs are awful. I am on day 6 of being clean and just got off a 12 hour shift. Am feeling tired but not sure if I will be able to sleep. If you can make it 4 days you will start to feel better mentally.
1134609 tn?1269272200 ----I stabilized completely last summer and I was on the brand name version of the medication. When I switched over to the generic, I started having problems and had to increased the dose from 900mgs to 1600mgs over the space of a few months. Any changes in the dosages over this time dropped me into a deep depression and I HAD to drop the dosage many times because it was agitating me. I just assumed it was because I was adjusting to the medication.
Avatar f tn The first time I got them filled I had to get name brand b-c I couldnt find any generic. They were $ 550.00 for 60. I paid 11 dollars a day for 10 years on methadone. I meant that 50mg was my last dose. I had take homes and I would always take more than I was supposed too, also knew someone that was giving me bottles any time I wanted them. It got really bad a couple of months before I quit I was taking anywhere from 200mg - 400mg a day.
Avatar m tn there is also another brand name known as Dolophine. Dolophine is simply Methadone Hcl in an actual pill form, not a wafer. It comes in 5mg, and 10mg strengths. This was oringially designed for people taking methadone for pain control, but was later integrated into the clinic system for those who couldnt tolerate drinking the liquid (Like myself, but Im not sure having to swallow 70 of those pills a day was any better!!!) In regards to your question about decreasing....
1345272 tn?1276400328 All the active ingreidents are the same but the fillers are different and have different side effects. I personally had an awful time with the generic and finally my insurance will pay for name brand.
317787 tn?1473358451 A lot of insurance co's dictate what they pay for,mine for example will only pay for generics and when a generic is not available and name brand must be filled I'm hit with a big deductible.
Avatar m tn OPANA IS A VERY VERY STRONG PAIN KILLER. I IS MUCH STRONGER THAN IT'S COUSIN DILAUDID. THE GENERIC NAME FOR DILAUDID IS HYDROMORPHONE. THE GENERIC NAME FOR OPANA IS OXYMOPHONE. OXYMORPHONE IS GIVEN ORALLY IN EITHER ER (EXTENDED RELEASE), OR IR (IMMEDIATE RELEASE) IT IS VERY HIGHLY ADDICTIVE. MOST ABUSERS CRUSH AND SNORT IT LIKE OC USERS. SOME ALSO INJECT IT. I WAS AN ADDICT FOR EIGHT YEARS. AND A FUNCTIONING ONE AT THAT.
Avatar n tn Heather, To me knowledge, the meconium test will show up as generic "opiate" and if you are in a recognized methadone program, I'm sure, that you will not have any problems with the law.
374225 tn?1269899262 Can anyone suggest a good generic that works as well/better than Methadone without the negatives that come with Methadone? Thanks a ton!!!
Avatar f tn Sweetheart I live in Florida also and I have never heard of generic Sub. That is one of the reasons so many people stay on methadone or go to the done in the first place, because of the cost of sub. From what I understand, sub is just as strong as sub and just as hard to get off of. I thought about sub before but it is just toooo dang much money. Sorry I could not help you Good Luck Lisa Jacksonville,.

Avatar m tn Roxicodone is a trade name for Oxycodone the generic name. Methadone is the longer lasting pain medication and the oxycodone is being prescribed for what is know as break through pain. This is a very common practice. The Methadone will not cancel out the Roxicodone. In my opinion in addition to the pain from the damage of his injuries your brother is probably experiencing what is called phantom pain. Phantom pain can be very difficult to treat. It occurs when a limb is lost.
Avatar f tn Yes it's totally legal. If you want more information there's a guy on the internet who outlines the process, whether you travel abroad or order online. He actually wrote a book and started a blog on it. He also started a buyer's club but no need to go that route. His name is Greg Jefferys, google his name for more information.
Avatar m tn why cant i stay off the methadone for 3 days and than get a script for buprenorphine generic .and start my treatment detox at home. i do have a gp doctor.and i think he can do the buprenorphine program.
Avatar m tn If you do want to ask your doctor about trying Opana ER you should know that the generic is much less effective than the brand. Both the brand and generic have the same active ingredient, oxymorphone in extended release form; however, the generic uses inferior time release technology that increased my pain levels significantly 6 hours after dosing.
538782 tn?1213809348 I'm new to this website. Question, I'm soon to be taking my third dose of clomid. I haven't picked up my prescription yet but, i'm lost.. I don't know whether to take the generic or name brand. Ive been taken the generic(clomiphene citrate) for the past two cycles with no luck.. Dr said he would rather me be on the brand name. It is more expensive. I don't know what to do.
1477820 tn?1287432081 The craving you will have all of your life. It will go and come in it's severity. But I just wanted to give you thge suggestionn of asking your doc about generic SUBUTEX. If he says it is not available,.,. IT IS> I have a bottle of 60 here right now. Just tell your doc that you can't afford the suboxone and the methadone isn't working for you. Ask him to perscribe you SUBUTEX. The generic. Then you'll have to call around to see how cheap you can get them.
374225 tn?1269899262 There are two types of generic Fentanyl and at least one of you claims that one is superior to the other. Which one is the better of the two? My doctor is probably going to let me try the patches over the methadone and I just want to be sure. It amazes me how much knowledge we all have accumulated and outside of these boards so much of it is wasted. I'm so glad this place exists and I found it.
