Absolutly not! You may still be able to join AFTER successful detox, but realize that there is no going back after signing. The military is now giving waivers to former addicts to make its quotas but for your sake and the sake of your fellow soilders please try to go at least a year on your own before trying. Good luck with your recovery and congrats on considering such a noble career.
I just want to add to this. It's not like Methadone is ONLY prescribed to addicts. I take Methadone and it's prescribed for my chronic back-pain. Methadone is prescribed as a pain killer, because it IS a pain killer, just like any other pain killer. They DO use methadone to get patients off of other drugs because it's not AS addictive as other opiates. Plus heroin users are prescribed methadone to get off of it. Pain killers get a lot of bad rep. but if you take them responsibly then they can be VERY helpful. I was on Oxycontin for a long time and switched to methadone because I lost my insurance and methadone is a lot cheaper so it's a nice alternative, plus I like it more because you don't have to take it as often. I will admit though it would be nice NOT to have to take something for pain everyday but that's what life dealt me so that's what I am stuck with. But for the people out there trying to do away with pain killers like what I take, to them I say "to bad it isn't YOU stuck with the pain I live with everyday". I guarantee anyone that lives with the type of pain I live with would think twice about wanting to get these pain killers outlawed.
can you test postive for methadone while taking methocarbamol
No you cant
yes
You can take basically any of the popular over the counter medicines you want for a headache while taking methadone. Tylenol, Advil, Aspirin they are all safe to take while taking methadone. I made sure by contacting several pharmacist and asking. They all confirmed the safety of taking them together.
Yes You can It Works just like it would if you where not on Methadone at least it does for Me I have Used Viagra with it to it also works
It is not advisable to take Hydroxycut while on methadone without consulting a healthcare professional. Hydroxycut is a weight loss supplement that may contain stimulants, which could interact with methadone and potentially lead to increased side effects or complications. Always discuss any supplements with your doctor, especially when on medications like methadone.
Yes, but make sure it is prescribed properly by a physician that knows you are taking either drug.
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).
taking milk thistle actually slows the production of the paticular enzyme that breaks down methadone. therefore it takes your body longer to breakdown the methadone while on milk thistle, increasing the amount (dose) of methadone in your body. Im currently on both and it helps the methadone last longer while tapering.
DO NOT TAKE ULTRAM/TRAMADOL WHILE ON, OR COMING OFF OF METHADONE! You can, and probably will have a Grand Mal Seizure (Which is Very Bad)! How do I know this? It happened to me 3 times! I finally found out from my Methadone clinic that you can't mix the 2, or take Ultram while coming off of Methadone. It is a HORRIBLE experience! Please heed my advice! You can DIE!
Depends on how much methadone you take. If it's alot your kinda screw or take lithium, if it's not klonopin and lithium are wonderful for bipolar.
Don't take methadone in combination with Valium as this will increase the effects of methadone and can lead to an overdose.
