They have clinics that you can go to but the downfall is you go everyday for so many months and then you build up to a week at a time. My husband goes and gets 6 bottles of 80mil liquid in Huntsville. Al. You have to have a clean urine test that only shows the methadone. If you've taken anything over the counter tell them. He used to drive about 100 miles round trip. It was pain management and also to get off of other meds that he was addicted to. It is 12 dollars a day not counting gas and food if he doesn't eat before he leaves. They are only open from 5to11a.m. on certain days and they are open everyday except holidays, where you are able to carry your, take home with you. they are very, by the rules and if you're late, you just miss that day, which sets you back also. I don't know if your town where you moved has these clinics but It's a thought.My husband doesn't have insurance so this was about his only solution.He always tries to be there as soon as they open so he leaves at 4a.m.. It's best to be there early. I've seen them turn people away. When they lock the doors at closing time, you're out of luck. I don't know if all the clinics are this way so if you check into them, read the rules because they mean them.

Where at in TN do you live I am in Knoxville we have 2 it is $98 a week. I am on 120mg per day so it is worth it if you ask me. You can check in to it if you like. They are open 6 days a week and mon. wed. and fri. they are open from 5:30am to 10:30am and then from 12 noon to 2 pm the other days they are open from 5:30am to 10:30am only. and it is pill form not liquid they put it in water and it disolves. If you don't want to go to a clinic you will have to buy them on the streets and it goes for $1 a mg. So a waffer is 40 some people charge 45 because they know they can get it. So good luck hope you get your meds.

Yes, it does require a prescription, so you will need to consult a doctor or pain specialist.

Boy Sue, your poor husband is at a horrible clinic the way they treat their patients...The clinic I go to is great. I go in once a week because I have been clean since July 2002. What happenes if your husband has medications that are prescribed to him? Is that not allowed?..He really isn't being treated right, and there are laws that protect us Get on the inerntet and pull up the Federal Guidelines, it is Title 9 that you need to read. If a patient is going to be a few minutes late because of a flat tire, or some other emergency they are supposed to keep the doors open for awhile, I mean they won't do it all of the time, but everyone runs into trouble once in awhile and may need 10 extra minutes to get there. Also the Federal guidlines say a patient can miss no more than 2 days straight or then they can have problems, just 2 weeks ago we had our car impounded and we missed one day last week and 2 days this week, thank God we got our car back!! When we walked in, no one said anything to us because we missed 2 days, I mean they were extra nice because they knew we were sick and got us right in..I know it is a pain in the but to have to go in everyday for 90 days, especially having to drive so far, but he does have 6 so he is doing great..Really, read those guidelines because we have a right to be treated with dignaty, and the clinic your husband goes tp sees like they push the patients aroind...

Tay, if you don't have insurance, the only thing you can do is go to a methadone clinic. Just don't tell them you need it for pain, you have to be an addict to be a patient at a clinic. I know in Ca methadone costs one dollar a MG, and you don't want to go on the streets to buy it, the methadone clinic saved my life, it is far less to pay to go to the clinic than to buy drugs on a street corner,,The clinic I go to costs me $190.00 a month, and I am on 170mg so I would be pauing $170.00 a day..It isn't worth your freedom or your life....Lets us know what happens, ok?? Good luck friend...

methadone is written as well as hydrocodone is, I ve seen many people on methadone for regular pain maintaince, his problem may be that his insurance plan is in michigan an theres limited TN. pharmacys that will accept it, this can be solved by calling his insurance an asking are there any participating providers in TN. an find the closest one

I personal think that after a person is willing to detox from addiction that there medication be given them in a weekly reguiment at least, there is no need to place patients in no more inconveince as possible, this is one of the reasons a addicted person sometimes does nt stick with a program because of the BS that s intalled

I agree Woodstock, I have been going in weekly since 2002, if I had to still go everyday, it would be a hardship, not because of going but the darn gas prices, I remember when I complained that gas cost 60 cents a gallen..I am lucky because in Ca we have clinics in almost every city, I feel bad for the patients that have to travel hundeds of miles each way..

your comment about gas prices made me think of what a freind said.
he stopped at conveince store, an got some gas an it was like $2.30 at the time, he said he cussed under his breath, then went in an got a gallon of spring water an it was $2.50, he said I cussed again

I think the USA ought to monopolized all the fresh water supplies an then give the middle east a taste of their own medicine

Another option, rather than Methadone is to see if their is a Suboxone treatment clinic in your area, you can check at Suboxone.com

The only problem with that Verwon, is if the patient is in severe pain, subxone is not a good painkiller at all, that is why I mentioned Talwin NX, it is supposed to be an excellent painkiller, and an addict can take it without abusing it because of the naltraxon in it. Only problem with that is the patient has to be clean or he will go into terrible WD;s.if the patient is taking other opiates. I just wish someone would have sugested that to me years ago...

I heard from another site that due to the oxycodone shortage some pharmacies have gone to hand compounding some capsules an they add a touch of naltraxon , just to try to stop the addictive properties of this medication

Woodstock is right. If you have a script you can go to any pharmacy. If you need a refill call your DR. and tell him. they will write you another one. Methadone clinics are for people who want to get off of drugs not for pain management.

I live in La Follette TN, not far from Knoxville, I used to goto DRD (the methadone clinic in Knoxville) They have two there One off of ailer avenue, off 17th street and the other is off baxter avenue, I don't go anymore because I goto a Dr to get my methadone and I get it for pain management, The only problem is, if you live in East TN, there isn't many Dr. willing to write it, if you want to know some docs that will just e mail me {edited for privacy}

Hi NeedHelp..I know how hard it is to go to the cliinic everyday, but that is the only way to do it when you first start. It is a federal law..Now if you can find a doctor who can write you a prescription for pain, then you can probably go just once or twice a month, but for addiction, there is no way. Most of us who are on methadone for addiction started taking opiates for chronic pain. Is there any pain managment doctors in your city who can help you? If you can tell me what major city you are the nearest to, I can find you the closest clinic to you. There may be a clinic closer than you think. Hope to hear from you soon
