541465 tn?1219427886 Methadone can be abused! I do not think methadone is the way to go for a pill addiction. I have used methadone twice. The 1st time it worked for me. I was not on it long. The 2nd go around was a nightmare. I was one it 6months. I thought it was going to kill me getting off of it. The w/d's are like nothing I have ever had. Alot of people say they get hight off of it. It never did that to me. In fact by 4 or 5pm, I was ready for bed. I could not keep my eyes open.
Avatar n tn She also takes 2-3 clonzopines and oxy 40s when she can get them. She is probably about to be kicked out of the methadone clinic because they have found evidence of these other drugs in her system, as well as marijuana. I'm afraid she will have a heart attack or something. She has some extremely bad health issues as well. Can you advise please?
541465 tn?1219427886 t give it you in jail so let them kill you instead of capture you. There is nothing in the world as addictive as methadone and 120 mgs is pretty much the Max allowable dose.
Avatar m tn Can hemorrhoids kill you? I have one and it's causing me to bleed a lot from my rectum. But it stops after a few minutes. But every time I take a dump it makes it bleed again!

Avatar m tn That way you will be rid of the oxy for good. Think about it and I hope you can make it through however you do it.
Avatar m tn but it finely went away enough to keep tapering got down to 10 with no problems below that it was going in and out of withdrawals I hope this post give you some hope that you can do this the thing about addicts we want it and we want it now and that dont work with methadone there are a few things that you can do get up to walmart and pick up a 3 in 1 vitamin calcium/magnesum/zinc...
Avatar n tn Yes, they just want you to heat it up first to kill any Bacteria that might be on it. For instance, I now get my subs toasted at subway.
Avatar n tn I am 34 weeks pregnant with my THIRD Methadone child. I am no way an expert but this is my 3rd !! I live in New York State and here it is a law that they have to maintain you on Methadone when you are pregnant, also they can't decrease you it can lead to miscarriage or pre term labor. My first child on Methadone I used until I was 5 months and she went thru hell when she was born. She was in NICU for 7 weeks and she kicked at home for another 6 months... it was HORRIBLE !!
1056758 tn?1254325099 docs that prescribe methadone for pain are flat out misinformed about the drug.I imagine the fact that it does not harm the internal organs,may be one of the reasons why the prescribe it. the reason it is working is it stays in the body for long periods of time inbetween dosings. it can last 36-48 hrs for some. another reason why it has so many have over dosed on it. they keep taking it some times 2-3 times a day, in large doses, then after time the body is loaded with it.
Avatar f tn Every doctor I have talked to has said that you cannot die for opiate (vicodin, etc) withdrawal. There are some things you can do to ease withdrawal. Check out the Thomas Recipe and Amino Acid Protocol listed on the main subs. abuse page on the bottom right. When is the last time you took methadone? Have you been off it for a while?
Avatar m tn Do you have someone to help you remain accountable, meaning a person to keep you from abusing methadone? I am a methadone addict, so that is a concern for me. Short term, I have seen methadone work, though my closest friend used it for oxymorphone and Oxycotin, but I don't think it would be much different. I believe you need a solid plan and aftercare for bupe or methadone to help.'what kind of support do you have locally?
Avatar m tn It is SO GREAT that as you taper off the methadone that you are seeing things clearer! The clarity will only get better :) Thank you for sharing the "Good minus an O" thought with us. I had never heard that before....and I just LOVE it!! Simple doesn't mean easy.....but the hard work is SO WORTH IT!!
Avatar f tn If you are going on subs, you don't want to use methadone. Methadone stays in your system too long and is a more difficult transition to subs. Oxys are fast acting and will put you in withdrawal for sub induction much faster. I would try to find a sub doctor, if that is what you want, and skip the methadone. Methadone is my DOC and advise great caution when choosing that path. Read about sub induction, and you will see that methadone requires special considerations.
484568 tn?1208557738 I was wondering if you can get high off of methadone. I was just perscribed it and I have never used it before...any ideas?
Avatar m tn What matters is how long you take it and what your dosage is. You should be ok...You can probably expect some nervousness, may some loose bowels, and you may get chillier than other people. I am constantly cold!!! In fact, if you have insurance, I strongly urge you to see a doctor or psychiatrist...There are so many non-addictive...non-opiate based meds that could be beneficial to you.. I plan to see a doctor as soon as I can raise enough money.
Avatar f tn You can continue with the methadone for your pain. I was prescribed the methadone for chronic pain. I couldn't handle it and asked to be switched to something else but it really controlled my pain, much better than most medications I've been on. The best of luck to you. Try to build up your body while doing this. B complex is very good, and a good multivitamin would be great. Take care!
Avatar m tn hi i dont mean to be rude, but did you get in your car to score everyday? if so maybe you should look at the fact that if you drove to score you can drive to help your recovery. i kow it is difficult but try and put it into perspective. the same amount of petrol would of been used. good luck with whichever way you choose to go.
