Is Anyone on This Site That Has Factual Information Regarding Indications of a Methadone Overdose?
Question by Trish: Is anyone on this site that has factual information regarding indications of a methadone overdose?
My husband has been on Methadone for about 3 years, thru a Methadone Clinic. Lately (past 6 months or so). He keeps saying he doesn’t feel right, I just looked it up and all of the things he is saying are listed under SEVERE SIDE EFFECTS. But, it also says, most issues occur within the first 2 weeks. Since he has been on it for so long, is it possible that he is just now experiencing these effects? He takes 120 mg / day.
He has been on 120mg for at least a year, but they did slowly take him to 120mg

You need to describe these side effects.
I’m assuming you’re saying that he’s nodding out after he doses. If he’s passing out and he can’t help it, he needs to see the methadone doctor. 120mg can be extremely high for some people, regardless of their weight or size. What was he addicted to, how did he use (orally, IV, snorting, etc), and for how long? Those are also important factors.
Either way, he needs to see the doctor at the clinic. Opioid addiction is an extremely complicated problem and it’s not something that anyone is going to understand by doing a little bit of research on the internet! (no offense of course)
