The same as if you take it orally. First off, your making a HUGE mistake if you nasally ingest a methadone pill. It will burn the crap out of your nose and it will expand and clog your nose making your lose a lot of the medication. If you put a methadone pill in water you will see that it expands to almost double or triple its original size when it hits any moisture. But the most significant point (if those are not enough for you) is that it makes no difference at all. Methadone is not like other quick acting opiates. Methadone is a slow acting, long lasting medication. It does not absorb quickly into your bloodstream like other opiate pills. So basically, it is a complete waste of time and your nose's health.
Will first you need to get off methadone or be on at least 5mg. And then the doctor can put you on suboxone.
Yes, as long as methadone is taken as prescribed, you can maintain employment.
No. Methadone is a very mild opiate in terms of its "high", that is why it is chosen by drug clinics to detox from opiates. As long as you are on a dose of methadone that is appropriate, you will not have to stop work or feel any major effects from methadone.
Yes but it probably wont work since your receptors are blocked with methadone
Not half as long as if you just chewed it up and swallowed it. Believe me youll be twice as messed up for twice as long if you chew and swallow. Benzos dont work well when snorted, believe me ive tried it both ways. Opiates and amphetamines are the only 2 kinds of pills you want to snort. Otherwise its no.
How long does it take to work
iTS UP TO THEM THE COMPANY.
I have been on methadone for 8 years and while it may take a while to "adjust" to it, you can absolutely work on it. I would suggest not to mention it to anyone while on the job, though. Once again, i am not a pharmacist, nor do i have any pharmacological training, so, be careful out there!
No, Methadone requires its own specific test because it is synthetic.
yes
methadone does not show up as an "opiate" on a drug test. It is an opiate, but it is sythentically different from other opiates and will not show up on a drug test as an opiate. Methadone has to be specifically tested for as methadone. With methadone abuse on the rise, alot of places have gone ahead and added it to the list of substances tested for so I wouldn't take a chance on it not be discovered. However, methadone clinics, when testing to see if you are taking your methadone properly will not only be looking for active methadone in the urine, but also methadone metabolite which shows that your body processed the methadone. This prevents someone from just putting a bit of methadone in their urine because this manner doesn't provide methadone metabolites.
WHY DO WORK PERMITS TAKE SO LONG
