please do not, this can be very dangerous. Lamictal is a mood stabilizer that requires blood work in order to be prescribed ( i was once on it) and I am sure you know the functions of the other two does not seem like a good idea to me. Xanax with methadone is also dangerous. It is the lamictal that worries me you should not mix that with those two.

Your girlfriend is on 100 milligrams of methadone 20 mil of Prozac and 5 of xanax 3 times a day she is always drowsy and she also takes extra xanax when she gets a hold of them how can you help her?

Take the xanax away... I take it she is coming off heroin or an opiate since she is on methadone. When you take a benzo with methadone it creates a heroin like effect, and can cause black outs. I personally would not recommend methadone, Suboxone is the better option or Subutex.But be aware that Subutex and Suboxone will give you INSTANt withdraw symptoms,a hardhitting cold turkey, if your not completely out of the Methadone.

Is there a saliva drug test for Xanax?

There likely is a saliva test for Xanax. I know this because I am a patient of a methadone clinic for heroin use and the clinic tests monthly for all illegal drugs as well as "bezos"(xanax). The reason for this is because methadone and xanax combined have side effects that doctors look down on(overdosing being one effect). This is not a definate "yes" to the question but considering how much the methadone clinic staff does not want it's patients using "Xanax" then I am certain that the mouth swab given to me tests for it.


Does methadone show up in your system the same as hydrocodone?

No. Hydrocodone will test as an opiate. When drug testing they have to specifially test you for Methadone. Methadone shows up as Methadone. Like codiene, vicodin, lortab are opiates. Valuim, Xanax, Ativan are benzo's. butabutal (fiorcet) is a barbituate. Methadone is Methadone.

How long can you take a xanax after stop using methadone?

Since I'm sure you read Methadone and Xanax is commonly a lethal combination, I wouldn't recommend doing this unless you have a prior high tolerance to heroin or Oxycontin AND Methadone, as well as experience with Xanax. I've taken 10mg of Methadone and 1mg of Xanax a few times and it was perfect. Then again, I had a tolerance to 80-120mg of Oxycontin, a tolerance of up to 20mg Methadone (pill form, not the liquid) and took 1mg of Xanax with it and was perfectly okay. I really don't recommend this to anyone since everybodys different, but I've known several tolerant people who have done this and have been okay. However, if you do not have tolerance to any of these medications, I would definitely take them separately. I would wait at least wait 6 hours before taking Xanax after your Methadone dose, or vice-versa if you absolutely must. Take care!

Are methadone and xanax detected in saliva if so how long?

You are most likely a Methadone client, but that's just my guess. Either way, if you are serious about being on MM wean yourself off the Xanax (in concert w/your prescribing Dr.) If you are still prescribed Xanax be certain your Clinic has a copy of your script because it with show up in a urine test up to one month after last dose.
