Im trying to figure out the same thing. I know that if someone is taking water pills they increase the amount of methadone. So that leads me to believe that drinking large amounts of water with a dose of methadone will make it leave the body faster thus lessening the effects.
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.

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.

Should you wait before taking Methadone after taking Suboxone?
Going from methadone to Suboxone will make you sick. Going the other way will not make you sick. However, long exposure to the narcotic antagonist in Suboxone will have made you far more sensitive to opiates like methadone. There is a good chance of overdose. The methadone should be phased in slowly, starting with much lower doses than normal. A better idea: get detoxed from the Suboxone if necessary, and get REALLY clean. Why go from one addiction to another? Addicted is still addicted. Don't you want to be free of all that?
