Does anyone know a doctor who will prescribe methadone on ct not a clinic? I cannot meet the hours for a clinic and I really need help ## Unfortunately, under current U.S. law, a private practice doctor is not allowed to prescribe it for addiction treatment. They can only prescribe it for pain. You may want to consider trying Suboxone, since it doesn't require daily clinic visits. You can check for a doctor that treats with it in your area by using the search engine on the site Suboxone.com click here. The FDA classifies this mediation as an opiate, so it carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth and constipation. Is there anything else I can help with? ## I wish. I'm allergic to subuxone but ty for lettin...

Please HELP in Chicago!! My moms Doc has retired and she needs a Doc that prescribes Methadone. Shes having trouble finding one even though shes been on it for well over 10yrs and has legit pain issues. She lives near Chicago IL. Thanks!! ## Hi! Has your mother found a doctor, yet? If not, how is she checking to see if they will prescribe it? Is she asking when she calls for an appointment? If so, most doctors are going to see that as drug seeking behavior and will just that they don't prescribe such medications. What she needs to do is set up an appointment with a new doctor and make sure that they get a complete copy of her current medical records. Once they can see her treatment regimen and what has and hasn't worked for her as documented by a fellow physician, they will be m...

Looking for a doctor who will prescribe methadone in the Charlotte, nc area. I have real pain due to a car accident back in 2000 when I broke my pelvis. I moved from Jersey to Nc and got the pain meds off of someone else and when I became pregnant I was told to go to a methadone clinic. I had no idea what I was doing or that I could easily have gone to pain management. I'm willing to drive almost anywhere within reason for a doctor who can give me methadone. I've tried subutex and suboxone but neither work. Please help ## Unfortunately, if you have gone to a Methadone clinic in the past, then that is in your medical records and a regular doctor will not be able to prescribe it for you. Whether you need it for pain or not, your prior addiction treatment is what will restrict them...

Learn more Methadone details here. Have you considered trying a different medication? Being willing to do so would likely get your more help from a new doctor.

I am 40yrs. old and broke my back and am confined to a wheelchair. I'm in a lot of pain. I've tried a lot of different meds and methadone has worked the best. I live in erie, pa and can't find a doctor to help me. If anyone knows of any please help. I will drive as long as it's not too far away. Thank you. My name is Bill. ## Bill - Have you tried looking for a pain management doc/clinic? Have you talked with your primary doc about getting a referral? I'd start there. Other resources I'd check are with the social work departments of area hospitals. Many of them have referral services or in-house pain management clinics, which may be your best bet. If all else fails, there's always methadone clinics, though most of their clients are going to be there for addic...

My dr has prescribed me methadone for over 8 yrs, now she is saying I have to go to a pain clinic so I went and all they want to give me is antidepressants and OxyCotinER 20 X 4 which I have tried now for over two weeks and I am screaming sick in pain.

I took a now deceased neighbor to it. I believe the clinic owner may have recently passed away, but its still open ## Hello, Erika! How are you? I'm afraid that a clinic is your only option, at this time. Due to the way the laws are, regardless of why you were taking it, the fact that you went to an addiction treatment clinic is in your medical records, so a private practice doctor or pain clinic won't be able to prescribe it for you.

Do any doctors prescribe methodone in pill form? ## Any doctor can prescribe it for pain, but not if you're looking for it to treat drug addiction.

I just moved to Idaho from California. I am on methadone for degenerative disc disease. And have been on it for 8years. A pain team with Kaiser Permanente put me on it.. well this was an unexpected move. . I got on Idaho medicaid and they assigned me to a health clinic(after i didn't choose one because of everything going on)well the clinic has a policy that they dont prescribe anything over the equivalent of 120Mg morphine.. they wont fill my script! I live in the Boise area... Any suggestions? ## I don't think most of us realize that taking opioids for long periods can also cause pain because your body is asking for more and (causing issues with other parts of your body without you recognizing it and has a terrible affect on your mind) not taking on time can be painful as well...

I live in Myrtle beach, SC and I am in desperate need of a doctor who writes for methadone. I have many physical disabilities and my family doctor was writing it for me as I am unable to afford going to the clinic every day. I am willing to travel. I have called quite a few docs and they wont even see me due to the fact I am on Methadone. I hate the whole stigma that comes with it. Please if anyone knows of any Doctors here or in the surrounding area please let me know.. ## Well, you may be creating part of the problem yourself, if you are calling and asking if they prescribe Methadone. When you call and ask if they will prescribe a specific medication, especially a controlled substance, most doctors will consider that to be drug seeking behavior. They view it as huge red flag and even ...

I'm currently on methadone for my rheumatoid arthritis in both knees. I dive 140 miles each day from Wyoming (will not prescribe methadone) to a clinic in Colorado. I would so appreciate a listing of physicians in Colorado who will prescribe this life saving pain medication! Thank you soo much! ## Hello, Debbie! How are you? I'm sorry, but under current laws, a clinic is your only option. Regular doctors are not allowed to prescribe it for addiction treatment and since you've been going to a clinic, even if it was just for pain, that's what is in your medical records, so no regular doctor will be able to prescribe it for you. This is a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mo...

Hi, I have been on 90mg of methadone for about 5 years for chronic and many pain issues, my dr has retired and my current dr does not want to keep me on my meds. Does anyone know a Dr in Minnesota who will help? ## Hello, Sheila! How are you? Most doctors are going to be reluctant to prescribe Methadone, since it is so highly addictive. Additionally, due to the new regulations that were put in place by the DEA last year, a general practice physician can't prescribe it, you'll need to see a pain management specialist. The FDA lists this as a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation. Can anyone recommend a good doctor in that area? Is there a chance your PCP might b...
