Dear ponco,
I have been working with opiate dependency patients for over 15 years and we actually detox the highest levels of
Methadone in the country. The best way I have seen patient coming off the
Methadone when they get to the teens, is by one milligram a week. And when you reach the last five to ten milligrams, then I would do one milligram every 2 weeks. I know is hard to dose this way, but the slower you allow your body to adapt when you get to small amount , the easier it will be.
