Methadone Detox While Pregnant?

Question by bullymommy25: Methadone Detox while pregnant?
My sister was prescribed methadone for severe sciatica and became pregnant. Her dose was 35 mgs when she got pregnant after birth control failure.She decided to keep the baby and slowly detox, and is now 16 weeks preg and down to 16 mgs. She has a few aches and pains but nothing serious at all, but is under stress. As this med is also for heroin addicts, she’s nervous about how people will treat her, plus really doesn’t have too many people to talk to. Has anyone out there detoxed from this medicine while pregnant?

Opiate/Suboxone Addiction.?

Question by : Opiate/Suboxone addiction.?
Long story short here. I was going through mild opiate withdrawal. Heard suboxone helped out so I got two 8mg pills. Knowing it was wrong, I still snorted them over a 6-7 day period. It did wonders for the withdrawal symptoms though. Also knowing I could get addicted to the suboxone, I took some one last time on a Monday night. Felt fine all Tuesday. Wednesday afternoon I started to feel symptoms again. Did I become addicted to the suboxone in such little time?
