Question by L Dane A: question about methadone for w/d’s?
I just got my hands on 10mg of methadone after the most ruthless six hours of withdrawals ever, and I’m wondering if this is enough to take the pain away for someone who’s on 180mg of oxycodone plus 75mg of morphine daily. Also, how long does it take to work? I took it like almost an hour and a half ago and.. nothing. I mean, my w/d has decreased noticeably, i suppose, but not the way suboxone could help me if i railed it

Question by JASON B: Stuff I need to know about “Suboxone”?
I have an appt. Mon(its Wed/night) to hopefully start w/ suboxone treatment. I have abused opiates for about 13 yrs. Been to rehab a couple of times to detox off of Oxy’s. Stayed clean a couple of months then right back on them. For the last 3 months, I have been strictly taking methadone(about 60 to 80 mgs/day). I reckon my question is… what should i tell my doctor? Should i stop using methadone tonight? i’ve read that you can’t start suboxone if you have methodone in your system. I was thinking maybe I could get by the next 4-5 days eating oxy’s again. Also, I need to know what kind of dosages I should tell him i’ve been taking b/c i’m worried to death that he isn’t going to start me out w/ a high enough dose to get me through my wd’s(spoken like a true addict). Lastly, It’s $ 750 for the first 3 days and then 125 a month after that. That’s alot of money I could spend on street methadone. IS IT WORTH IT?    Read more...
