been battling the off and on opiate addiction and then did what i wish i never started, methadone. I've never, as a patient asked to go over 60 mgs. however, i've weened down so much, probably down to 5-8mgs every other day give or take a mg or 2! i WOULD SAY BYE BYE HOWEVER, It's derby in louisville and i can't be dope sick bartending tonight. you think the 2 mg suboxone would hurt me with as little as i have in me. i used to start my symptoms like all else chills, skin crawling (i want to unzip my skin and peal it off) but now, hoping due to I'm off and on with it the suboxone MAY work for me since I'm not on a consistent or high dose? please? lol I'm ready to act my age.
thanks for you help
yes, unless you havent taken the methadone in 5 to 7 days , the half-life is still active . probly make twice as sick. but what do i know . never did that.
Yeah don't do it!! Doesn't matter if low dose..also even if every other day, that's enough to keep you from getting sick. That day of nothing In between is more psychological/might feel tired, little crappy but the methadone is still very much active..hold out as long as you can before making the switch, or I mean at least until your in some kind of w/d other then dragging a** or even slight chills/sweating.... good luck
