I'VE ALWAYS WANTED TO BECAUSE MY DOSE DOESN'T HELP ME THE SAME AS BEFORE! SO DOES ANYBODY KNOW THE RIGHT WAY SO I WONT WASTE MY DOSE?

REPORT

Get 20ml barrels and butterfly's from your local needle exchange.....not at the chemist, they dont sell them....then you fill how ever much you want to take into the barrel. Make sure that you add more water to your barrel than methadone or you will burn the f*** out of your arm. Connect your butterfly needle to the barrel and you are ready to go.....

If you were supposedly in the medical field for 5 years, and ur dad's pharmacy for 10, then you should be able to spell ethYl (not ethel) alcohol, and withdrawAls (not withdrawels) etc, LOL.. I have been taking 445mg of liquid methadone for 8 years, and i assure you i am not walking around f***ed up. I was not a heroin user, but prescribed drugs, and i'll tell you without methadone, i would for sure be DEAD. However, every case varies because all bodies are different and act/react differently :)

Injecting methadone is a terrible idea ... enough said.

People are all different. I had a 800 dollar a day habit with opana, dilaudid, heroin. I was taking them for 8 years and then went to done clinic and started out at 50 and was still sick as s*** and finally got up to 170 and I was straight not feeling high off it but it just knocked withdrawal symptoms out...... I don't care how big or little you are, take 300 plus mg of liquid methadone and see if your ass don't feel its effects and if you say you don't quit trying to act like a badass. I'm 6'4 290lbs and I feel it if I take 300 mg and I had one hell of a habit bad enough that I would excuse myself in class in college and go to bathroom and dose. So don't sit there and tell me people aren't hooked..... It's a different type of opioid.

Yes methadone can make you feel high just like any other narcotic..... It's an opiate so what makes you think it can't make you feel high like any other opiate? To say I'm on 200mg means nothing, you didn't start on 200, you started on way less and gradually went up. So of course you slowly built up a tolerance instead of making large jumps. How about trying 400 one day and see if that makes a difference? I am sure it will.

You do not feel high on methadone unless u obviously don't need it. if you have a true tolerance to opiate and H you will not feel high. I been on it for years and when i started i did not feel high, It simply relieved my WD's and made you feel normal...Maybe if ur going to the clinic for a high you should re-evaluate why the hell your going in the first place... Its people like you who give the clinics bad name. Why do u want to abuse something that is made to help us?? If u really wanna bang, don't abuse the thing that will eventually help you or you will be screwed if u ever grow up and want off h or opiates.... People are dumb and piss me off not knowing a thing about done

Methadones oral bioavailability swings wildly 35% to 99% and the sugar free die free flavor free 10mg/ml is injection solution missing the ph adjusting chems. All its got is citric acid purified water and sodium benzoate. just got to maybe adjust ph. it depends on tolerance and what point the methadone is at in the elimination process. I'm studying more on why that giant methadone rush sometimes occurs and sometimes doesn't, but the rush is just indescribable. I do know promethazine and clonidine and lots of other chems effect pharmaknetics. when i did it i always took 20mg diazepam, 2mg lorazepam, 25 of promethazine one hour before and the first time i was on 5mg methadone a day i was weening off at time and i took 25mg of done just to take a break from being sick. I find this drug absolutely amazing and has such weird and mysterious pharmaknetics and is my new favorite opioid im researching.

It's 160 milligrams, it takes about 5 cc b4 im no longer dope sick n ten if i wanna feel better. I kill a bottle every 2 days n guess what? I haven't died yet. I will say this though...taken orally seems just as good effects wise but slower.

I really like how each post about this question (none of them have answered the question by the way) has just a little bit more to say about why they know more, or why its good, bad or who knows but everyone has 2 cents and thats about what its worth, 2 cents.... Anyway, as im reading i get to "Studrocket`s" post and he really goes into some deeeeepppp s*** about cardiomyopathy and how injecting liquid methadone can cause QT segment elongation... WOW, i really want to see the study on that..... Im super positive that at NO TIME has anyone, EVER done a specific study to determine the cardiac effects of liquid methadone injection and furthermore if they had they without any doubt in my mind (which is educated by the way, and not at Daddys pharmacy, its called NYU, maybe you have heard of it....) they could not come to the conclusion that you say they have came to, thats just stupid. Without going into a ton of cardiology just rest assured that this premise is just stupid, AT BEST ! Please try to offer good advise, hopefully advise that makes sense and has some sort of facts attached to it and not just stuff that you googled and that you think makes you look smart, it doesn't. QT Segment elevation ??? REEEEAAAAALLLLLLLYYYYYYYY ??? Now, to answer the question... as stated in other posts, the meds themselves may be sterile, putting it in your little take home bottle totally "undoes" that and beyond the issue of injecting non-sterile stuff in your body is asking for trouble BUT even beyond that, NO, DO NOT inject this stuff, its VERY bad for you, maybe not short term but it WILL be a big problem, or lead to big problems... medications that are made for injection are processed in a totally different process than PO (by mouth) meds.... just ask Daddys pharmacy boy, Studrocket was it?

I was trained by an Army Ranger on how to properly administer liquid methadone. You do feel a big effect from it like anything else but you can damage your veins doing it.

all of you people are confusing methadone with methadose. methadone gets you very high. methadose (the liquid you get in the clinic) does not. it will for the first week or so but then it goes away. you guys are arguing and don't even know the facts.

Frank, pls learn how to spell. N stop putting n in front of every sentence. N it makes it very hard n to understand n what u are talking about n. Everyone uses abbreviations when txting & what not, but damn dude, u take it 2 a new level & it's hard 2 get what ur saying. But, N I think u were trying 2 say n that just because ur buddy said so, all anyone would ever need is 50mg of methadone 2 feel ok. Is 50 a magic number? Everyone is different & some people do need more than 50mg to feel ok 4 a whole 24 hours until they get their next dose. If ur dose is to low 4 u, then u will not feel OK for a whole 24 hours which is the point. That dose is different 4 every individual. 50mg is not the magic dose 4 everyone to feel OK just because ur buddy says so.

Hi, just in reply to your comment you don't get a rush off methadone, I've been taking it for 3 months now and I'm only on a small dose of 30 mg and I get feel effects for at least 5 hours before I start feeling normal again, and that's everytime I take it. I suppose you have been on it for so long you can't remember you just feel normal now..

My son was fine for 3 days and the day before my wife was gonna bring him home she had him sleep in the nursery and the next day they came in and said he shows signs of withdraws,and gave him morphine and weened him off it took a month in a half its a long story and I believe he was fine but he is now 18 months and healthy and happy,I was just curious if there were and effects later on in life?because all the so called specialist claim that all this bad s*** can happen and I think they are full of s*** and want money lol,I can see if the mother was on a high dose but my girl was maybe taking 50mg she got a split dose but never took it so they were basing their things as if she was on 160mg and not what she actually was taking,thank you

Wow, love the comments on here. Even the people who call other people out, claiming to be intelligent, and cite various information, are i****s. Hey @Studrocket, you remind me of every pharmacy assistant I've ever known, in that they think they know everything about medications (& medicine), but really are just entry level workers that only know what someone else has told them, without any of the crucial background knowledge. How many years did you go to school to be a pharmacy assistant? Oh that's right NONE because pharmacy assistants don't need any prerequisites, basically because they only do the remedial, redundant tasks that encompass 90% of pharmacy work. You have no idea what you're talking about and are completely wrong about just about everything you claimed to be knowledgeable of. First, I don't know where this whole idea came about that "methadone doesn't get you high", but this is a total misconception and is just not true. Methadone, like heroin, hydrocodone, oxycodone, fentanyl, morphine, is an opiate and narcotic analgesic (pain killer) . All opiates have a certain affinity to various receptors in your brain and body and this causes the euphoric, anxiolytic, analgesic feelings they ALL produce. Now all opiates cause you to develop a tolerance so over time you need a greater dose to achieve the same effects and eventually it won't necessarily be getting you high anymore, just avoiding the symptoms of opiate withdrawal. Now most people out there that take methadone, take it at a methadone clinic, which isn't like getting a script where you can just take more pills if you wish. So a lot of people have this misconceived notion that methadone doesn't get you high, but this is the opposite of what is true. Now, every opiate has different affinities for different receptors, and ultimately different effects. The only drugs classified as "opioids" that truly don't get you high are ones that have negative affinities for these various opoid receptors, which is why they're commonly used to treat someone who overdosed. So yes, technically when someone overdoses from opioids, they actually give them more opioids. But these drugs are essentially the opposite of opiates chemically speaking with how they affect you, and are not "opiates" in the normal sense. Back to methadone though like all opiates, methadone has a slightly different affinity and reaction than other opiates, including one unique factor. While methadone causes pain reliving and other similar effects of all opiates, it also uniquely acts as an NMDA antagonist. Now NMDA antagonists actually REVERSE tolerance to just about every drug there is. Ibogaine, a psychedelic and strong NMDA antagonist, is even used to get people off of all drugs without withdrawals, including opiates. Yes it's true, I've used it multiple times and it truly does eliminate withdrawals entirely as well as any cravings. However It's also a 16-36 hour psychedelic trip though in which you won't even be able to walk, so not something you can just take willy nilly. But anyway back to the point, methadone unlike other opiates actually REVERSES tolerance to opiates and therefore has the potential to consistently get you HIGHER, not the other way around.

But now for my second point StudRocket... You mention you won't go over 100mg and that a high dose, over 200mg of Methadone, would cause pre-elongated QT, or essentially an arrhythmia which can ultimately lead to heart problems. Here's the problem that though, there has never been any study that says that's true. There have been extensive studies on methadones affect on QT levels and heart problems and what they found is this. Methadone by itself doesn't necessarily cause heart problems p, and when administered by itself literally results in almost no problems, but when combined with things like alcohol can cause heart problems. And while there is a concern that higher doses could THEORETICALLY lead to a greater chance of heart problems, there has never been any established consensus on what would even be considered a "high dose". What cracks me up is I can see why you would know that is because an actual Pharmacist probably told it to you to tell patients that partial bit of info because of how when mixed with things like alcohol methadone could POSSIBLY cause things like an arrhythmia. It is hysterical that you then twisted this partial information to mean it's somehow worse to take over 100mg, or even 200mg, of methadone. So sorry that you actually know nothing about the field you worked in for 20 years. You must be a disappointment to your father who actually went to school to be a real pharmacist
