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.

What happens if you vomit after taking liquid methadone?

If it is 0-15 minutes after taking it, almost no medicine has been absorbed, so you are free to take another dose. 15-30 minutes after taking it, part of it may have been absorbed so take either half a dose or the full dose. After 30 minutes, most of it should have been absorbed, so continue with your regular dozing schedule.
