Yes, a person can potentially be held responsible for not taking someone to their methadone clinic if they have a legal or moral obligation to do so, such as being a caregiver or having agreed to provide transportation. However, the specifics depend on the context, including any agreements made and local laws. If the individual was under a duty of care and their failure to transport resulted in harm, liability could be considered. Ultimately, the circumstances and legal definitions in the relevant jurisdiction would play a significant role.
No. A clinic will truy and tell u that the methadone will block the effecfs, but this is also not true.
I don't know what methadone your taking but Methadone usually comes in clear or a pinkish, purple color. At some clinics, they mix juice in with the clear methadone. If you are taking a colored methadone, it is likely either juice from the clinic, or a sugar mixture for flavoring because methadone is very bad tasting. Methadone will taste bad even with strong juice mixed in.
if your in a methadone clinic i would stop taking all drugs and get your life together
Yes it is. Methadone is often sold to people other than the user. So it is 100% necessary to include methadone on the list of drugs they test for to make sure that you are taking it. Giving methadone to somebody else can easily kill them. Your dose is designed for you, what is OK for you could kill somebody else. And if that should happen, you would be charged. You would be responsible for that. I am on methadone and they test us for it. METHADONE IS AUTOMATICALLY TESTED AT METHADONE CLINICS ALONG WITH OPIATES, BENZODIAZEPAM, COCAINE, ECT.
No, 5mg's is a minimal amount of methadone. Although, methadone, as a drug, is very strong and very long lasting so I do not recommend taking methadone without contacting a physician. Most people who walk onto a methadone clinic get a starting dose around 20 or 30mg's a day.
Testing exists to ensure that methadone patients are actually taking their medication and not selling it on the black market. I'd like to elaborate on the above answer. Testing for Methadone assures that patients are taking their medications because most people that are taking Methadone are on a previous medication that is causing the withdrawal alot of Methadone users will sell the drug to get their drug of choice. Also they want to make sure the user is not abusing the drug by taking too much.
they can't tell. the only way you can measure the levels of methadone currently flowing through your system would be a blood test. they just make sure that you're taking your methadone - not how much.
Yes you can but the methadone will block the Dilaudid.
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!
Very High. Of course everyone is different and has different tolerance to different drugs, but mixing benzos and methadone is dangerous and can cause your heart or cause you to stop breathing due to them both being depressants. I was on a methadone clinic for 3 years and saw 11 people die from that combination of drugs.
Taking less methadone would help. Talk to the doctor who prescribed you the methadone. He/she will be able to prescribe an anti-emetic such as Phenergan or change the methadone to another medication (if you are using it for pain).
can you test postive for methadone while taking methocarbamol
