What is a good amount of methadone for a first time user to ingest to feel an effect from the methadone?

From experience, I was given 30 mg's when I first went to the clinic and really felt it. Most people say 20 mg's is a good starting dose. Before this, I had a 80 mg a day OxyContin habit. Be very careful when starting Methadone as it is VERY dangerous at first. If you take 20 mg and do not feel it, do not take more that day, wait until the next day before increasing your dosage, as Methadone has a very long half-life and is still in your system even if you don't feel it. Many OD's occur from this.

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 long does methadone take to work if snorted?
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.

If you take methadone will you be able to get high on herion?
Yes, methadone is an opiate blocker and will block the effects of heroine.----------------------------------ImprovementMethadone does not contain an opiate blocker at all. It has a cross-tolerance with opioids, and higher doses of methadone can reduce the high: but from first hand experience I can tell you categorically that methadone does not totally block the high you get from taking heroin.
