Methadone

Because it is a pharmacological medication, FDA regulation calls for distilled water just like any other liquid medication a pharmacy would mix behind the counter.

for me barometric pressure and hi and low storm fronts affect me greatly so yes

First you must face how and why you started Then you need to dig up will power and strength and a supportive family member or friend Get a job or do volunteer work to keep yourself busy change wipe out and stay away from any friends on it, delete numbers which give you access to it. talk about it when you are tempted it will help you get the support to fight the urge. throw out anything related to heroin in the home. find local community groups through centerlink and get to the first available appointment find a support group it will help. see a counsellor if you have no one to talk talk to a doctor about methadone clinics where they are and how to get in, dont do the methadone treatment to the bupenmorphine treatment ask at the clinic but most of all dont give up keep fighting you will succeed.

This only a SUGGESTION. Try searching the internet for "gout". I'm not a doctor, but it's one possibility. You won't have gout if you're skinny and starving... You will probably have a rich diet, probably including daily alcoholic drinks --if you have gout. That's why it's called the rich man's disease. Poor blood circulation can cause this too.

NO, it is in no way safe. don't take it, ever. This question is a bit vague

Heroine in its pure form can be used in a controlled fashion as a painkiller

Morphine in essence is synthesized heroine.

Street Heroine, however, is not pure. It is cut with all kinds of different things.

You do not know the purity of Heroine when you get it, often people do too much which causes the heart and central nervous system to slow down to the point where it can no longer function.

A Small Fortune!

yes, they can be born addicted. every mother and every pregnancy is different. i know of a baby born to a mother that was already using methadone when she became pregnant. the mom had been on methadone for 4 yrs at the time of pregnancy, passing urine screens and following clinic rules. the dose during the pregnancy was 60mg/daily. the first day, the infant showed no withdrawal symptoms. the second day, however, the baby's pediatrician started giving the child methadone. it was a very small dose(0.5 mg twice a day). within 2 months, the baby was off the methadone. the doctor tapered him off it 0.1 mg at a time. thankfully, the child suffered no permanent disabilities and is now thriving.

Everyone is different, but I was clear after 72-84 hours.

You should detox from methadone in a medical detox facility. Methadone detox is the worst of all the opiates -- much worse than heroin -- lasts about twice to three times as long, and can be fatal in some cases. Suboxone is often used clinically for methadone detox, along with supporting medications as needed.

I believe it can be considering how long you have been taking it and how much , it would probably come to be recognized by the test as an opiate since methadone is a derivative/synthetic opiod, its like marijuana if you have been taking it for months it will takes am extended time for it to clense from your system.

It depens of your actual methadone dose and age (or other factors). Generally, you should avoid this combinaison and use another antibiotic.

However, if "cipro" is the only choice, make sure you check every parameters with your doctor and pharmacist.

I was on 110 mgs methadone for over 14 years. I was in rehab to come down 10 mgs per week. I went from 110 to 80 1st then after reaching 60mgs. I chose to stop cold. NEVER try this. Go slow & wait. at least 6 weeks before taking suboxene. You MUST. be in FULL withdrawal before starting suboxene.

Methadone is mostly used for opiate addiction and in some cases it is used for pain management.

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.

no it can't methadone is a water soluble drug goes out the urinal track

i go to the methadone clinic & people who work outside in the heat sometimes have to take higher doses of methadone because sweating causes the methadone to leave your system faster.

As a high-dose opiate patient for many years (Duragesic, Percocet, Demerol,etc.), I've had to raise and lower my dosages many times, and withdrawals are a daily part of life. I spent 8 months of steady withdrawals and 1 month of hard withdrawals to finally stop using Duragesic after 10 years, though I know I'll need to go back to it at some point in the future. It won't take you that long of course, but mental as well as physical preparation are important. I never did it until I felt that I was both mentally and physically ready to do it.

The keys to tapered withdrawals are:

1. Time - Make sure you have time to do it (no work, school, activities, etc.). It helps to have a family member or close friend around. Depending on how long you've been taking it, and the dosage, it typically takes longer to taper off. The dose combination you're on isn't that much, but of course everyone is different. If you can't take time off, start on a long weekend or holiday, as the first few days and the last couple of days are the worst.

The reason you should have someone around is that in the beginning you typically are pretty weak, and about the only thing you feel like doing is heading to the bathroom & back to bed. Warn family and friends that your mood is going to be less than pleasant also, and not to take anything personally. Usually friends and family are pretty supportive when they know what you're doing, so explain it to them ahead of time what you're doing and what to expect as you progress.

2. Hydration - As you've already discovered, you sweat buckets when you're withdrawing. Water and Gatorade are my fluids of choice, as Gatorade replaces the electrolytes you're losing, and help with your cramps as well. If cramping gets real bad, eat a couple of bananas to boost your potassium levels.

3. Heat - Opiates are vasodilators, which mean they open the blood vessels. When you stop taking your normal dose, the vessels constrict, and that's why you get so cold. I used to do mine during warm months, but anything to keep you warm helps. Expect to change clothes a few times too, and keep the air in your room circulating with a small fan to help keep you dry.

4. Mental distraction - There's a good reason I have a large movie and game collection; they take your mind off the pain and discomfort. Computer work, anything that keeps your mind focused on something other than the discomfort. Gaming has actually been sanctioned pain therapy for me for about 12 years. If I could figure a way to deduct it on my taxes, I'd be set.

5. Music - Personally, David Gilmour's BD at the Royal Albert Hall is my favorite for withdrawals, but any favorite music you have that calms you mentally is a real help. Have a good selection handy and ready to go.

6. Sedation - When things get really bad, I'll take something to knock me out for a while.

In tapered dose reduction, what you do is cut the pill in half or in quarters. First try taking half your normal prescribed dose, and see how you deal with the withdrawals. If it's too strong, then start with only a 1/4 reduction in dosage. Stretch the time between doses a little more each time. Take it for a week (or until you feel you can drop further), then drop another 1/4. If the withdrawals are too strong still, then stay at 1/4 dose reduction for another week, then try again. When you can tolerate the withdrawal, then reduce by another 1/4, and repeat the weekly process. Keep doing it until you're completely off of the drug.

It also helps to take an OTC med to compensate and ease the withdrawal pain. Two of my favorites are Tylenol Rapid Release Gel-tabs, and Bayer Back and Body Aspirin. I also use prescription strength Naproxen, which is available OTC as Aleve. 500mg is prescription strength.

The OTC meds will help compensate for some of the withdrawal pain you'll experience, and they do help. The other thing you might consider is asking your regular doctor for an anti-anxiety med and an anti-nausea med. An anti-anxiety drug will help you get through some of the rough patches, and an anti-nausea drug helps during the last push before you're through. Most doctors are happy to help, knowing that you're taking steps to withdraw from opiates.

You're also going to feel weak through the process, and after the final push when you drop the last dose. It'll take a few days for your body to regain its strength.

The time it takes may be sooner or longer, as everyone is different. Keep in mind also to be aware of any pain not associated with withdrawals as you taper down, as the pain med will mask it. One of the reasons for my last major withdrawal period was that I needed to assess my true pain after my 3rd spinal operation, and you can't do that while on higher doses of opiates.

The whole process is similar to a bad case of the flu that won't go away, with the additional discomfort of shaking and anxiety. But as I said, if you first prepare yourself and know what to expect, it's not as hard as it seems. Uncomfortable as hell, yes; impossible, no.

Both of these medications have a potential to cause kidney issues. You should check with your doctor if you have concerns, and definitely let them know if you have already been diagnosed with kidney disease.

Most areas have treatment facilities that will allow you to sign in on your own, subject to whatever payment requirements they may have. Call your local Mental Health Association for suggestions if you are unable to pay.

There have been cases of people using certain ones and the test showing a false positive.. Before any type of drug test you must tell the person administering the test what medications you are using so they can make a note of them on the release form that goes to the lab

Methadone is prescribed to people who are addicted to opiates and is also used for pain management in some cases.

All doctors do drug testing sometimes, but pain management doctors have to be especially careful because they prescribe lots of narcotics and they have to be sure what the patients are on to prevent a bad interaction, or possible overdose.

Kirk Fisher writes: Depends on the stuff you get. The good stuff will only result in minor seizures. The bad stuff that rots out your tooth will result in more violent epsiodes.

yes it will it be like you never took lortab yes it will it be like you never took lortab my friend tried it DPO his name and he couldn't fell the lortab it was funny.

Medically, it is not prescribed as a pain killer. It is a stimulant. It's prescribed medical uses are typically for treatment-resistent cases of ADHD, weight loss, and narcolepsy. However, since the 1980s methamphetamine use broadened especially among high risk groups that cannot obtain pain medication from healthcare providers concerned with their own safety from relentless drug policy that was stepped up to prohibition with the "war on drugs" during the Nixon administration.

During the early years of the AIDS pandemic, the drug was used to quell the depression brought on by HIV. At higher doses, methamphetamine can increase depression when the user is coming down from the drug. By chance, many lives may have been saved by methamphetamine because the drug tends to spike the production of CD4 T-Cells that are the principal targets of HIV and necessary to support a healthy immune system.

By the beginning of the 21st century, methamphetamine HCI (Desoxyn) and the street version, crystal methamphetamine (CMA) have become favored by those who cannot obtain proper pain medication as the drug tends to mask pain or even the symptoms of a cold. Since the pro-positive benefits of the drug have not been fully explored, further research might just reveal that this drug is being used for much more than its well-documented euphoric effects.

Y Actually, there isn't a 25mg methadone pill. They come in 5, 10, and 40mg tablets and also liquid form. If someone is telling you there is a 25mg tablet of methadone, it is either not methadone, or a different milligram. Now of course this is by FDA standards. If you actually find a 25mg methadone pill, it is not regulated by the FDA and therefore you should be very cautious before taking anything that is not approved by the FDA.
