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
