Why does it look like ink is in your liquid methadone?
I don't know what methadone your taking but Methadone usually comes in clear or a pinkish, purple color. At some clinics, they mix juice in with the clear methadone. If you are taking a colored methadone, it is likely either juice from the clinic, or a sugar mixture for flavoring because methadone is very bad tasting. Methadone will taste bad even with strong juice mixed in.

Will someone who is on methadone maintenance test positive for opiate or is it nessesary to include methadone on the list of drugs to be tested for?
Yes it is. Methadone is often sold to people other than the user. So it is 100% necessary to include methadone on the list of drugs they test for to make sure that you are taking it. Giving methadone to somebody else can easily kill them. Your dose is designed for you, what is OK for you could kill somebody else. And if that should happen, you would be charged. You would be responsible for that. I am on methadone and they test us for it. METHADONE IS AUTOMATICALLY TESTED AT METHADONE CLINICS ALONG WITH OPIATES, BENZODIAZEPAM, COCAINE, ECT.

No, 5mg's is a minimal amount of methadone. Although, methadone, as a drug, is very strong and very long lasting so I do not recommend taking methadone without contacting a physician. Most people who walk onto a methadone clinic get a starting dose around 20 or 30mg's a day.
Why do they test for methadone at a methadone clinic?
Testing exists to ensure that methadone patients are actually taking their medication and not selling it on the black market. I'd like to elaborate on the above answer. Testing for Methadone assures that patients are taking their medications because most people that are taking Methadone are on a previous medication that is causing the withdrawal alot of Methadone users will sell the drug to get their drug of choice. Also they want to make sure the user is not abusing the drug by taking too much.

What is a normal dosage of methadone for a female who been on it for 2 years?
There is no "normal dose" for a "female on methadone for two years" It depends on the person, and the amount drugs they used prior to taking methadone. I am currently a patient at a methadone clinic, and when I first started I would ask myself "am I taking a normal amount, but my counselor told me not to worry about the # of mg's I am on, but to focus on my recovery. Only you can truly know if the dose you are on is working for you. I can tell you before I started methadone, I was taking Tramadol (which is not very common for methadone patients) sometimes I would take 20 pills a day. sometimes I would take percocet, vicodin, whatever. I've been a patient for 6 months and I am on 80 mg's of methadone per day. Good luck with your recovery!
How high is the risk taking benzos with methadone or opitates?
Very High. Of course everyone is different and has different tolerance to different drugs, but mixing benzos and methadone is dangerous and can cause your heart or cause you to stop breathing due to them both being depressants. I was on a methadone clinic for 3 years and saw 11 people die from that combination of drugs.
Is liquid methadone effective if you vomit after taking?
Generally, if someone has had the stomach flu or feels nauseated when they go to my methadone clinic, the nurse has you wait there for 15 minutes after you dose. This happened to me once, and they said as long as you keep it down for 15-20 min. after dosing, you should have absorbed most of it. If you vomit before the 15 min. are up, they will consider dosing you again at about half of your normal dosing level.
