I have been on methadone maintenance this time for 7 years. I have recently decided to start a slow medical detox at my clinic. My question to whomever may read and answer this post is this: I am currently on 75mg. I went down 5mg. last week. This is not my first time detoxing off Methadone. However it is my first time detoxing after being on this many years! Quite frankly I'm scared s***less.
I heard about something called vitadone. My queation is does it help? I don't want to be hood winked because of the pain I will sooner or later be dealing with. I am trying to get my weight down, and do some kind od exercise routine to begin the endorphine rebuilding phase.
Also does anyone have any tried and true methods to lessen the withdrawl process. Thanks for your help,
hello, im currently detoxing myself also, im at 10mgs, in a few days i will be at 7.5 to be honest i havent had any wd symtoms, other then dizzy every now and then, a few stomach aches, and well thats it.i ve talked to someone in person who detox slowly , all the way down to zero. and told me there really isnt any wds , except for the restless nights. i was also told there is no easy way about it, unless we stay on it for life, someday those feelings will come back.
