Sometimes eating about thirty minutes after ingesting methadone will help the drug to work more quickly and effectively. I have been told this by workers at a clinic and also patients who complained that the drug wasn't working well enough for them. When I was put on methadone, I would wait about 20 to 30 minutes after I took 2 pills, then eat a small snack or a meal, and it would "kick it in" so to speak, making me experience more pain relief and I felt I got more out of the medicine than if I had not eaten anything at all. Drinking hot coffee also seems to help for a lot of folks. Different pain medications work for different people and I believe in using methadone because it has a long-lasting effect and the patient only doses once a day. Other pain relievers such as lortabs or percocets only last a few hours and then more pills are needed to continue pain relief. Roxicodone is only a break-through pain reliever, sometimes lasting only an hour. Also, methadone is not a drug that is likely to be abused intravenously like Roxicodone or oxycontin. I believe it is safer because it is used mainly once daily, it is a pill or liquid to be ingested, not administered intravenously.
What’s stronger methadone liquid or pills?
Methadone comes in 10mg tablets, 40mg tablets, and it also comes in liquid form (cherry and clear).
I went to a methadone treatment center in Pittsburgh, Pa and i had both pink and clear liquids and i def think that the clear liquid Methadone is stronger then the pink liquid methadone i think its pink because of the artificial flavoring!
I have found that the pill is stronger than the liquid, I am on 110mg of liquid, before i was on pills, the pills are much stronger... Ebp &hag
Yes, drug tests look at metabolites, and since both forms contain methadone hydrochloride, the drug test will be positive for methadone metabolites.
Yes. I've been on methadone for almost 6 years and always disolve my tablets in water or other liquid. But I get the 40 mg tablets not 100% sure about 10mg but I'm sure it wouldn't hurt the dose.
Some people say there the same, but in my opinion the wafer(pill) i think is stronger & holds you longer.
If you are detoxing it is easier to adjust the dosage with liquid.
methedone doesn't exist and methadone is only in methadone tablets.
methadone
in some countries liquid methadone is all there is. liquid methadone is obtained by dissolving methadone wafers or methadone powder in a solution with alcohol, sugar, and an optional colorant.
