It depends how many Mg of methadone you're on & how long you've been on it. You don't want to take suboxone for about 3 days from the start of the withdrawal symptoms. If you start the suboxone before then, it will make you sick.
You can, but only if your doctor will prescribe it for you.
Yes. Sometimes methadone takes up to 2 hours to start feeling the effects.
yes, but only take for 6 days by then your physical addiction will be over, trust me you do not want to start taking methadone
Prilosec can have interactions with methadone. You should not start taking any new drug, over the counter or otherwise, without first speaking to your doctor.
There are no real side effects from taking the two together. But I can assure you that if you or on methadone , taking tramadole is no different than taking regular tylenol. Methadone is just SO MUCH stronger than tramadole, so just take tylenol. Well there will be side effects soon!! You see tramadole taken with the met will start to eat up your met!! It is a met antagonist. You will start to feel like you are having withdrawals from taking the both of them together!! So you can check with your pharmacist to confirm what I'm saying. So for now stop taking them together and get back to the doctor, he should"ve known better than to mix those two drugs !!
Don't take methadone it is very addictive and way stronger. Suboxone is way better and safer for coming of oxycodone. With Suboxone you would only have to take 2-4 mg.
I have read where people have started stuttering after taking some medications. Anything that causes changes in the brain, like a stroke, could cause stuttering. Check the research papers on the web site for The Stuttering Foundation.
After getting off of 20 mgs of Methadone, a person would need to wait 72 hours before taking any Suboxone. This should ultimately be left up to your doctor, though.
The FDA is issuing this public health advisory to alert patients and their caregivers and health care professionals to the following important safety information: · Patients should take methadone exactly as prescribed. Taking more methadone than prescribed can cause breathing to slow or stop and can cause death. A patient who does not experience good pain relief with the prescribed dose of methadone, should talk to his or her doctor. · Patients taking methadone should not start or stop taking other medicines or dietary supplements without talking to their health care provider. Taking other medicines or dietary supplements may cause less pain relief. They may also cause a toxic buildup of methadone in the body leading to dangerous changes in breathing or heart beat that may cause death. · Health care professionals and patients should be aware of the signs of methadone overdose. Signs of methadone overdose include trouble breathing or shallow breathing; extreme tiredness or sleepiness; blurred vision; inability to think, talk or walk normally; and feeling faint, dizzy or confused.

Methadone will not cure your heroin addiction. It will only keep you from going through withdrawal if you continue taking it. Once you stop taking the methadone, you will start going into withdrawal. Methadone, as well as Suboxone, are opiate antagonists. They feed your physical dependence on opiates, and they block an opiate high, so even if you relapse and start using heroin again, you won't get high on it. Heroin, Suboxone, methadone, opium, hydrocodone, hydromorphone, oxycodone, codeine, etc...these are all opiate drugs (made from the opium poppy). Methadone (as well as Suboxone) is just an opiate that won't get you high. It helps you quit getting high, but it does not cure or get rid of your physical dependence on opiates. When you are ready to stop taking Suboxone, you wean yourself off of it very slowly, usually over a period of several months. I would assume the same is true of methadone, but I have never taken methadone, so I don't know too much about it.
Since Methadone has such a long halflife and is absorbed by fatty tissues inside the body, it could take a few days to a week to safely take an opiate and feel its effects. But since you've only been taking Methadone for four days, try waiting until you start to feel the onset of withdrawal. It could also depend on how many mgs a day you were taking. The higher the mg, the longer it will take for Methadone to clear out of your system.
