What is the difference between suboxone and methadone? ## The active ingredients are very different, though both are opiate based and are used to treat severe pain as well as addiction. ## Dear Comments Submitted, Verwon is right, they r both opiate based. But the methadone helps much better with pain. (Believe me) I've been on both. After almost 5 years on methadone, I had 2 go on subs. Thought i was all set tapering down from methadone. Couldn't take the withdrawals or the pain. I went from 110mg to 24mg, then, I lost it. Anyway, like I said, methadone does work better 4 pain. They r both addictive. The good thing about subs is u don't have 2 go 2 a clinic, everyday. U find a good Dr and get take homes. ## i have been on both methadone and suboxone and they are very diffre...

I'm on 108 mgs of methadone and 3mg's a day of klonapin. I want to start to take addium but don't know if they will mix without any side affects. ## From what I could gather, Addium reportedly contains the following set of ingredients: Caffeine GABA Bacopa Monnieri Alpha GPC L-Theanine Phosphatidylserine L-Tyrosine Vinpocetine Huperzine A According to umm.edu, there ARE drug interactions between Caffeine and Klonopin, stating that Caffeine may inhibit the effects of Klonopin, causing it to not work as well. They also go on to note that taking Klonopin with Methadone can result in serious side effects, such as dizziness, confusion, lack of coordination, excessive tiredness, etc. Outside of that, Phosphatidylserine + L-Tyrosine do not list any interactions with Methadone or Kl...

I've been at my methadone clinic for two-and-a-half years in New York and I've heard that out west they have different colors such as orange, green, even blue, but where I'm at it's red with water. The next dose tends to get lighter in red. ## In a Treatment Center, where a yellow liquid called methodose is given. Is that methodose or methodone. Can liquid methodone be yeklow? ## Bee, After doing some research I found that methadone comes in a variety of colors, including orange, green, blue, red, white, brown. The difference between these is the formula of inactive ingredients that they use. I hope this helps.

This my first time taking liquid methadone. The one I got is kinda like a mint green color. People I know who the methadone said they never seen it in this color, only like a cherry red or orange. I would just like Ike to know if the stuff I got is real??? Can anyone help me out here I would really appreciate it thanks ## Hi Dee, If you got your prescription filled at a licensed pharmacy then there really shouldn't be any reason to worry about the color. However if this had happened to me I'd probably contact the pharmacy where I got it filled at and verify that the drug and dosage are correct. My guess is that the manufacturer might've changed certain inactive ingredients, which they aren't necessarily required to announce to the purchasing public prior to making any al...

I have been taking 40mg methadone everyday for almost a year now and I really would like to switch to suboxone. I know you can't take suboxone until you've had atleast 48hrs from your last dose of methadone, so yesterday and today I've taken an op 80 instead. My question is will I be able to take a suboxone tomorrow and not go into immediate w/d since it will be over 48 from last methadone dose? Or Should I be taking something else instead of op 80s to make the switch? Thank you in advance for any advice! ## Actually, you have to be in full withdrawal, from everything, before you can take Suboxone, so that means you can't be taking the Oxycontin, either. Suboxone actually contains 2 active ingredients, the narcotic Buprenorphine, coupled with Naloxone to prevent the abus...

What does 100mgs look like when you pour it in a bottle before water? ## Hi Amber, "Methadose" liquid oral concentrate with a national drug code of "0406-0527" comes in a red cherry flavor and is available in 1000mL bottles. Each serving reportedly contains 10 mg per mL, so if you have 100 mgs that would be 10mL worth of fluid. However there are photographs on google images displaying Methadose in a clear cup. Just type in "liquid methadone pictures". Below is also a list of the inactive ingredients, so you know it's not just Methadone by itself that's being poured into the bottle: Anhydrous Citric Acid FD & C Red No. 40 D & C Red No. 33 Methylparben Poloxamer 407 Propylene Glycol Propylparaben Water Trisodium Citrate Dihydrate Sucrose I hope this...

Does Voltaren contain gabapentin? My bottle says 50 Gm NP Gel. It says under it Diclofenac NA+Dextromethorphan+Gabapentin+Amitriptylyne+Nifedipine: 4 percent. So would this be considered Voltaren Gel and does this mean it contains all of those drugs? Would it be safe to take with Ibprophen, Methadone, and Oxycodone if prescribed together? I can't each my doctor. ## Hello, Bella! How are you? What you've described with that list of ingredients is a special compounded product that you're doctor has ordered for you. These are usually used topically and ordered according to your doctor's experience of what has worked for other patients. So yes, it does contain those medications and the FDA lists the most common side effects as being related to its topical use, so they may in...

I have been feeling very strange since taking methadone from Ascend mfg. They changed recently. Before I was fine. Can different manufacturer's ingredients be causing this? ## What are the markings on the pills in question? And exactly what do you mean by saying you feel strange? I'm sorry, but I need more details in order to check into this for you. The FDA warns that this medication carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, constipation, and dry mouth. ## I feel very strange as well since taking methadone from ascend as well. It feels like withdrawal feelings, like I'm not getting enough medication, and my pain returns before the next dose. I didn't understand why, then I looked at my bottle and saw that I ...

I have been taking Methadone for two years, but i want to get off of this medication and start taking Suboxone. Can I take Suboxone a day after I took my methadone? If not, can I take pain killers to help with the methadone withdraws until I start taking the suboxone? ## No, in order to start Suboxone, whether for drug addiction, or for pain, you have to be in full active withdrawal from all other narcotics. Suboxone contains the active ingredients Buprenorphine and Naloxone. The Naloxone helps neutralize other opiates to prevent their abuse, when someone is using it for addiction treatment. If you take it too close to the time period you are taking other narcotic analgesics, it can throw you into dangerous withdrawals. Is there anything else I can help with? ## I missed my clinic today...

I am taking 70 mg daily methadone, have been going to clinic for 2 mths now. I have a severe sinus cold/infection and was wondering what OTC medication I can take without the risk of an adverse reaction? Ugh, just want to be able to breathe again!!! ## I had a chance to look at the UCLA Health drug interactions list between Methadone and Nyquil. Unfortunately it lists a number of interactions which would likely deem the combination unsafe. This is because of the ingredients contained inside Nyquil (Acetaminophen, Dextromethorphan, Doxylamine Succinate, Alcohol, and more). 1. Methadone w/ Doxylamine, MODERATE interaction: "Concomitant use of opioid agonists with doxylamine may cause excessive sedation and somnolence. Limit the use of opioid pain medications with doxylamine to only pa...

I have been on the 10 mgs roxane methadones, 70 mgs daily, for 6 yrs for pain management. I've tried the mallinckrodt but they didn't work as well on me, and several others I know taking methadones for pain. My pharmacy and all the local pharmacies have now quit carrying roxanes and just have the malli's and Acends. I've heard terrible things about the Acends like withdrawals and not working at all. Ive done a lot of research and learned The Roxane Methadones have a distinct taste and disolve super fast but the Malli's are harder to disolve and even though they have the same ingredients they have sand in its inactive ingredient, roxanes don't. The acends seem to have the exact same product insert as the roxane's so I can't determine if they're truely ...

How long should I wait to take tramadol after taking methadone for 2 days ## I am at 146 milligrams for 6 years now in California, I want to move to Mexico. Before thinking of moving I wanted to do a slow taper, 1 mg week or 2. This would take forever. How would I get a prescription for methadone in mexico? How could I make it work? ## Hello Lisa, Here is some information to help you. According to the NIH every pill has what is called a half cycle. A half cycle is the period of time it takes for half of the current active ingredients in your blood stream to be metabolized by the body. It is generally accepted that it takes between 4 and 6 half cycles for the active ingredients of a pill to be completely metabolized. According to the NIH methadone takes approximately 24 hours per half cy...

I take these for chronic back pain and I have a bad cough so doc gave me this cough syrup but it was new clinic n didn't ask what else I was on and I'm so sick it slipped my mind as well ## Well that would be adding another narcotic to the mix, since Codeine is one of the ingredients. As I'm sure you're aware, they can all cause depression of the central nervous system, so they more you take, the more risky it gets. Symptoms of dangerous CNS depression may include extreme drowsiness, shallow breathing, lowered heart rate, dizziness and somnolence. Learn more Codeine details here. How tolerant are you to opiates? It would likely be best to check with your doctor or pharmacist, before adding another, just for your own safety.

I am diabetic and need to count my carb intake very closely. How much sugar / carbs are in a dose of liguid lortab? ## Hello, Poppy! How are you? Who is it manufactured by and what is the dosage? I'm sorry, but I need more information in order to research the ingredients for you, since this medication is available as a generic, so it's manufactured by several different companies. The FDA classifies it as a narcotic cough suppressant, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation. ## Is there any sugar in liquid methadone from a clinic? It's methadone hydrochloride
