Can someone link me to a well written thread or article on methadone first and foremost? I've found a lot of info but not exactly what I'm looking for. My last dose of methadone was part of a 2 day/3 dose event. I took 5mg on friday at 300pm then another 5mg's at 900pm then another 5mg's at ~5pm saturday. This was strictly to see how i would react to the substance seeing as how i read some pretty unsettling things... Here it is, tuesday, and i took 10mg at ~10am and i want to make sure i feel high without pushing the limits. Advice? I sort of want to keep another 10mg pill around for ~ 2-4pm depending on how i feel.. would taking 20mg in 1 day having taken 15mg over the course of 2 days, 2 days prior, be risky/stupid? Let me know what you guys think, I have very little experience with opiates, let alone methadone..
how many mg's could a 5'11 180lb guy, with no tolerance built up, handle in a day? I shouldn't have very much left in my system from my trial run, if any at all, so what does someone with experience think? My friend who sold me the pills said I'd be fine taking 2 10mg pills at once, and I've done opiates with him several times so I trust his judgment, but I just want to double check with others. He has given me so much oxy that I spend a good hour or so puking my guts out a time or 2 before so the idea of him overestimating my abilities isn't unrealistic haha. Let me know A.S.A.P.!!!!
i took a 40mg wafer over the course of a weekend, friday saturday and sunday, nine days later after my last dose, i was piss tested and i pissed positive for methadone, so dont think that it will all be gone......look up half life, and its like 30 plus hours......like he said, u can always take more, but u cant take less......goodluck

Methadone: The dosing for methadone is special: For less than 200mg of Hydrocodone, the methadone dose is 20% of the Hydrocodone equivalent dose. For between 200 and 500mg of (equivalant) HC, the methadone dose is only 10% of the (equiv.) HC dose. This same scheme follows for higher doses. Essentially, this means that methadone becomes STRONGER at EQUIVALENT higher doses of another drug. It is known as Methadone everywhere. It is used for severe refractory pain management and for a replacement-medication in opioid dependent people (be it addicts or simply legitimate pain patients getting off of their drug regimen). Because of its (almost miraculous) fact that you need LESS of it as the amount of your previous drug was HIGHER, it is a god-send for the terribly addicted. As an example, a person taking 1,000mg of Hydrocodone (or, 650mg Oxycodone, or 150mg Opana, etc.- any equivalent will work for the example), requires 50mg of methadone to relieve withdrawal. However, this is not much more than the amount of methadone needed to adequetely switch from 200mg Hydrocodone (or 130mg Oxycodone, etc.). What an amazing concept! Even the most opioid-dependent folks can seek solace in this drug. However, there is a catch. It's use for illicit addicts is HIGHLY regulated. For the first year (in many cases), you are required to go to a special dispensary DAILY to recieve your dose. Random drug screens are common-place, and unforuntately, many un-informed members of society look down upon the users of this drug. Abusing methadone is common, as people recieving "take-home" doses can divert them. However, it is very strong and has prominent morphine-like side-effects which generally only limit illicit use to people who are already addicted to strong opioids, including Heroin (a pro-drug to Morphine that is injected). That is all I will say about Methadone. If you are thinking about abusing it, find something else to get your hands on. If you are SEVERELY addicted to opioids, read more about this amazing drug.
