Methadone dose not stop the obsessive behaviour or thoughts associated with addiction. Addicts usually end up with two addictions - to the methadone and to the heroin!

Will 20mg of methadone show in a drug test 3 days later?
Of course it will. But it also depends on how long after you have taken the methadone. If you take the urine screening a week later it may still be in your system and show up on the test, if you take the test 2 weeks later it STILL may show up on the test, if you take the test 3 weeks later it will probably not show up. But be aware that Methadone is a very long-acting opiate and it is stored deep in your muscles and tissue so it can take a while to clear out of your system even though you only took 10mg for 3 days. But it should be out in about a week or 2 depending on your metabolism.
