Can you take methadone with prochlorperazine?
Yes have had to take them together. Just let your doctor or if you go to a methadone clinic let someone there know, because sometimes pheneragan can show up a benzos on a drug test. I am on methadone and several years ago I had food poisoning and my doctor gave me pheneragan with my methadone so I wouldn't throw my dose up.

Why does methadone make me sleepy?
I don't really understand the question. Methadone makes you feel normal and basically gives you extra energy depending on your dose. If you take too much methadone, it will make you tired and make you nod off and fall asleep anywhere, but that's only if you take a lot, if you are not prescribed to methadone I wouldn't recommend taking it at all because it is a very dangerous and potent drug for someone that is not on it and it is definitely not a drug to play or experiment with.
Although, if you are addicted to opiates, I would recommend buying methadone instead, while you try to get into a methadone maintenance program. Buy only a bit, say 5-10mg at first, don't take anymore then 5-10mg your first time or you will get sick. Go up 5-10mg every week and you should be fine until you get prescribed to it. Methadone is a lot better then say Oxycontin or morphine because it's a lot cheaper in the end and lasts 24-36 hours, basically the entire day.
Be very careful though, like I said... it's not a drug to play around with. Once you start taking it, it acts on the opiate receptors in the brain, blocking you from getting high off any other opiate, which isn't such a bad thing. Go to your local methadone clinic or doctor and try to get on the program and just self medicate yourself until you start a prescription for it, just be careful and take my advice above, from someone who was on methadone for five or six years.

Can a physician write a prescription for Methadone?
Only physicians who have been certified to specifically prescribe Suboxone can prescribe the medication for opiate addiction; this certification requires an 8-hour course and registration with the DEA, and requires the doctor to agree to certain terms including a cap on patients and the ability to offer therapy. Buprenorphine virtually eliminates opiate cravings and places opiate addiction in remission, but does not cure the addiction. As opiate dependence is a life-long condition, treatment with Suboxone or other buprenorphine medications must be continued indefinately, unless replaced with a twelve-step program or other recovery plan. Suboxone has been compared to methadone, but the action of buprenorphine at the opiate receptor is significantly different than the action of methadone, resulting in a different effect profile. While the DEA waiver is required to treat addiction using Suboxone, no special waiver or permission is required to use Suboxone or other buprenorphine product for treatment of pain. Buprenorphine has been used for acute pain treatment for a number of years, and currently is being investigated in a number of studies for treatment of chronic pain.
Yes! It will show as an opiate, which that is what herion shows as. To find out exactly what you are testing positive for, the urine has to be sent to a lab, but the basic test for opiates will be positive from taking a vicodin( hydrocodone), Oxycontin, Tylenol 3 & 4, herion, and so on...
Is methadone safe to use to stop addiction of oxycodone?
DO NOT TAKE THE TWO TOGETHER BEFORE YOU TALK TO YOUR DOCTOR! Methadone is a very strong pain reliever and could be fatal if taken with out a doctors supervision.
I currently take 150mg of oxycodone, 160mg of Oxycontin and 30mg of methadone. so yes you can take both. but something to remember you need to take them at the same time or so I have been told, If you do not I have been told one will block the other. Also the methadone attaches it self to a different pain receptor then the Oxycontin or oxycodone so it amplifies the effects ten fold! It in no way blocks anything If taking correctly methadone is used all the time for chronic pain patients like me. it lasts longer then the other medications and offers a different type of pain relief. So when your taking methadone and oxycodone together you're attaching to both sides of the pain receptor. Which gives me almost 100% pain relief.
What is the difference hydromorphone and methadaone?

How strong is 10mg of methadone?
It's really strong. Strong enough to knock me on my a**... I have been addicted to vicodins for a yr and decided to quit a week ago. I had some suboxone and methadone set aside for when I decided to quit. I was taking up to 30, 750 watsons a day. Long story short after a 2 days of no vicodins I took a half of suboxin strip (that's all I had) it worked for about a good solid day and half the next day. I waited until the following day to take the methadone because I was still having some withdrawls. Anyways I took half of 10mg pill around 12 waited about 2 hrs didn't feel anything and took the other half. Thats all I was gonna do because there was a chance I still had the suboxone in my system and it probaly was just blocking out the methadone. (That's how a lot of people O.D.) but anyways its 4 and I feel a lot better. Way more high than I ever felt taking vicodins.. even better than if I took 5 vicodin... I won't be taking the other methadone for atleast a whole day or two. point being its very very very strong. Just be super super careful. That sh** can honestly kill you. It can cause your respitory system to fail and you'll stop breathing. I wouldn't take it unless you really really need it.. not preaching just trying to help.

For addiction treatment, only certified addiction specialists can prescribe it. Other physicians can get certified by undergoing training for addiction treatment.

How do you ease withdrawal from methadone?
If the methadone user who is withdrawing is trying to quit "cold turkey" and not take any more methadone, then your form of "help" would consist of mental support, trying to encourage movement, and nutrition (as methadone detox makes one want to lay motionless, and not eat, due to severe discomfort, and irritation) as well as mentally encourage them to stay clean. Methadone withdrawals, depending on the person can last up to 5 months or so, depending on the lenght of usage, body type, and amount of normal dosages.

Do you have any withdrawal symptoms when you stop taking Methadone?
Oh wow! THat is an easy answer, absolutely yes! The severity of the withdrawals symptoms depends on how long you have been taking the methadone. If you have just taken it once, (which is highly dangerous, deadly even) then you should not have any withdrawals that you notice from the methadone. However, if you had been using heroin and then used methadone for one time, you will still have another day or two, depending again on how long you have been taking the other opiate such as heroin, of withdrawals. Now, if you have been on methadone for an extended period of time, say two weeks to a month, you will have withdrawals that are a bit stronger than heroin. However, if you have been taking methadone, either prescribed or otherwise, for longer than 2-3 months, you can guarantee that you are going to go through some horrid withdrawals. If you know what its like to come off of heroin or the strong pain pills, this withdrawal is about ten times that. It is way longer and way more intense. Let me give you my example, I was on methadone while I was pregnant, about 6 months, and then I got off of it about 2 months after he was born, so a total of 8 months, approximately. I even detoxed in 30 days from 65 mgs. I did not feel like myself again for at least 6 months after, and at first I could not eat or sleep, I lay there staring at the ceiling, but I couldn't stay still because it felt like my nerves were being tickled at all times. THat was the torturous part about it, the nerves. I puked and had diarrhea for the first couple weeks, and about a month into it the worst of it lessened. However, the nerves part of it and depression, so many things held me down. It was really bad, and I hated every second of it. I am on methadone maintenance again, and I am so scared of the time I will get off it. It has been a blessing for me this time, though, because I haven't used in 2 years and I started working toward my degree a little over a year ago and I'm still going strong. I have a muich better relationship with my kids and my family now, and Im looking for a job now that I know I can hold one. Methadone Maintenance can be a blessing for the right people.
