How likely is it to recover completely from a methadone overdose?

Bunny asked:

My son overdosed on methadone. He was taking high doses and is now in a coma in the hospital. He did not get it legal from a clinic.
Thank you for your answer. He also had a massive heart attack and an infection in his lungs. The doctors say to watch and wait and take it day to day. It is in God’s hands. I lit a candle from the link you sent. That is the why I think it is the best answer.

What are some heroin detox alternatives?

stoopid6 asked:

I have a friend that is addicted and wants to detox but he works and cannot go into a hospital to detox. He has tried cold turkey and cannot do that either. He previously was in a methadone program but doesn’t want to go back there because they keep the addicts on methadone for a very long time. Sometimes more than a year. I’ve heard there is a drug he could take for a few days that will take away the withdrawal symptoms but I don’t know the name or where he would go to get it.

Please help me help him. Thanks.

Methadone or Subutex?

Gilla B asked:

Which one is easier to detox from? I have heard horror stories about both of them. People say that sub is just as hard to get off of as the methadone. Most Dr’s say Sub is easier.. I am just curious. My son is on Subutex. Thanks!
