Can I Take Liquid Methadone Via Injection? (Top voted first)

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

If methadone got you high when you started than you didn't have a habit when you started. You've subjected yourself to what an addiction truly is by joining a clinic. Normally I feel bad for the kids who sign up at the clinic after toying around for a few years, but for you my friend welcome to slavery you won't do well at all.

GIVUM HELL KIM, I agree with u 100%. People should not comment about someone they know nothing about.. I get a good laugh out of all those who say "its not sterile". It is sterile, read the ingredients, ethel alcohol is in it just for that porpose.. I worked in the medical field for over 25 years and 10 of that was spent in my fathers pharmacy. I was counseling patients on drug interactions long before most of these rookies were even thought of..much less born. I know alot about medications,doses, interactions and not just about narcotics. I can't believe some of the absolutly wrong and stupid s*** people post.. Have you really been on 200mg a day??? That is an awful lot, enough to cause some serious heart problems.. elongated QT wave form. Doses that high will also cause cardiomyothapy something you do not want to have.. Its and enlarged heart caused by high doses of Methadone or other opiates and or alcohol abuse. I am on 100mg and will not go up under any circumstances. I would quit before going up. {edited for safety}. You will only feel great if you r NOT ON METHADONE. Not recommended for lightweights at all. I was on 100 mg for a few months and walked off it due to withdrawels every day (metabolism to high). When I injected 3 or 4cc after that I would get really messed up for 7 plus hours...

... the post before was very informative. And for the damn record no you dont get high from methadone. There is no rush. At best it makes you tired if you're on a decent dose. Ive been on it for a while. The liquid kind. And mine isnt syrup. Its straight methadone. You can inject soda if you want to . Doesnt mean you should. You can inject it. But honestly I wouldnt. Go find dope if you want to get high. Its five buck a bag. Methadone is to keep you clean. If you wanna be a junkie go get high on something made for getting high. Heroin.

Would anyone else agree that to an extent "getting high" may not mean the same thing from one person to the next. All depends what your after, what puts you where you wanna be, personally its not a high for me and im at 180 for 4 yrs now. I have never done H i was up to 30 10/325 norco and 2 80 mg oxy a day and i know now 180 is ridiculous for me but what can i say it is what it is i just signed up for blind dose to try and get down. Any ways the info i got from a pain management Dealer is the reason they like to use methadone is its a great pain killer that offers little or no euphoric properties im not a doctor and dont claim to know anything for sure but it makes sense and parallels the effects i experience. Just a thought i had

Bad idea, I don't know you but from my experience people that try to slam methadone are just trying to get high. if your dose is not holding you simply get an increase instead of performing a familiar ritual.

100% agreed. If you can any way possible not start at a done clinic, DONT! If you do and stay for longer than a month and keep going up on your dose, yes you just basically gave your self away to a chemically driven form of slavery. It sucks.

you do get high on methadone but if u take it for long periods you stop getting high. you need it just to feel normal methadone is synthetic herion.. just like most strong pain killers. . methadone is used for a variety of medical issue pain\with drawn etc...if your going to talk about something please know what your talking about. it does get you very high.

Hi Slim,

There's actually some very important information I referenced in the paragraphs below, that should clarify a few things as far as injecting methadone goes and other safer alternatives:

"Methadone is available in traditional pill, sublingual tablet, and two different formulations designed for the patient to drink. Drinkable forms include ready-to-dispense liquid, and "Disket" which is a tablet designed to disperse itself in water for oral administration, used in a similar fashion to Alka-Seltzer. The liquid form is the most common as it allows for smaller dose changes. Methadone is almost as effective when administered orally as by injection. In fact, injection of methadone does not result in a "rush" as with some other strong opioids such as morphine or hydromorphone, because its extraordinarily high volume of distribution causes it to diffuse into other tissues in the body, particularly fatty tissue; the peak concentration in the blood is achieved at roughly the same time, whether the drug is injected or ingested. When injecting Methadone, only pills have the least-dangerous cautions although it can easily cause collapsed veins, bruising, swelling and possibly other harmful effects. Methadone pills often contain talc that, when injected, produces a swarm of tiny solid particles in the blood, causing numerous minor blood clots. These particles cannot be filtered out before injection, and will accumulate in the body over time, especially in the lungs and eyes, producing various complications such as pulmonary hypertension, an irreversible and progressive disease."

"Methadone should not be injected either. While it has been done in extremely diluted concentrations, instances of cardiac arrest have been reported as well as damaged veins from sugar and other ingredients (Sugar-Free syrups also should not be injected). Oral medication offers safety, simplicity and represents a step away from injection-based drug abuse in those recovering from addiction. U.S. federal regulations require the oral form in addiction treatment programs."

Hopefully this information provides you with another perspective into using this medication in the most effective and safe way possible.

No. You dont feel high. Methadone isnt meant to make you high. If you've never taken opiates befor you shouldnt even be near methadone. Methadone is for people with high tolerance to manage pain and or opiate addiction treatment.

Methadone will get you high even if you do dope all the time but you gotta do enough. I used to take it from my dads and brothers take homes to get high. Its also for pain management and addiction. I was born addicted to methadone 29 years ago. A lot of you people are ignorant to methadone and don't know s*** about it.

Wow!!! I gave him good advice. When you have a bachelor's in abnormal psychology, then, and maybe then you should post!!! I went through school on methadone and that's on 200 mg. So before you speak, know what your talking about. And god bless the hell out of you.

Been on methadone for 10 years and before that heroin 5 years and still use on top most days unfortunately but the point I'm making is no methadone does not get you High at all. In fact your pretty hard pushed to get high off the gear these days. And many years ago when I was young and stupid I injected methadone and it did absolutely nothing so yeah if u want to feel something go score

Me too, I have been on 210 for about 7 years now and I sometimes stay feeling sick all day. It only just holds me. I could go up more but, I figure I got to stop somewhere as, I too rapidly metabolize methadone. When they did my peak and trough, they found that my blood levels drop right when they should peak. I have NEVER been high "as f***" on methadone, ever. But, then I already had a tolerance to opiates before I ever took it. However, in spite of that, the most ive ever gotten was perhaps a little drowsy when taking extra hoping to get "high". I have noticed that, for me, personally, the wafers seen to hold me noticably better than the liquid.

I've abused methamphetamine years ago and it just made me ill. Wish I lived where you all live cos the methadone we get here does f*** all. Been on 100ml for 12 years on and off and my meth just holds me but still take it really early every morning. Mind you the gear is that s*** here nowadays that does f*** all. Really hard to get tablets in uk. I'm lucky I get tamazepam off doctor but no one else does and it was like drawing blood out of a stone. DOCTOR NO are all the doctors in England. Used to get tablets online but my mate died from taking them. Anyway I wouldn't inject meth. When I was young and really stupid I did and it did nothing. And it will make you really ill.

Dear Kim, your reply does not answer the question which is why you should not even post because you dont know what you are talking about. When you start the done clinic you will get high as *u*k. So to answer Slim's question you should have said nothing, i dont know or NOTHING. But Slim David gives you the most accurate, answer. My only comment is that if you are going to the clinic you would have to save your dose in your mouth spit it out then inject it and i dont think shooting spit is a good thing. Please be careful, hope you get to a point you are just happy and god bless.

I have been on 210 milligrams for 7 years and I NEVER NEVER NEVER get any kind of "high" from it. Even if I take a bit extra, I STILL DO NOT get "high" in any way shape or form. The only thing that happens if I take extra, is I feel sick at my stomach and a little drousy. THATS IT! I WISH I could cop a little buzz! Would be kinda nice!

You're absolutely right! I been on the s*** 7 years and I made that same mistake, going up and up and up. Now I'm on 210 and I dont think I'll ever be able to be 100% opiate free for the rest of my life. I have some very painful health issues and rely on opiates just to decrease the pain enough so I'm not tempted to off myself and, all the doctors here don't give pain meds either. They have become gun shy about it cuz loads of doctors got their license pulled. So now, people who are really sick and having their lives destroyed by chronic debilitating pain, cannot get help. The methadone does not help my pain as much as pain killers and its making me sicker. Every time I drink it now, I'm nauseated the rest of the damned day and get VERY little pain relief. I even sometimes vomit my dose right back up. I'm on the pink liquid. When I was on wafers I never got sick to my stomach nor did I EVER need to take more than 60mg. It was when I started on the pink s*** when I kept having to give up. Everyone has a different body chemistry and will react different to medications. Some people are allergic to penicillin, some are not. Apparently, there are some lucky folks that can get a buzz or "high as **ck" on methadone (even with a high opiate tolerance, though I don't understand how) and some, (like myself) can not. Although most people I have spoken to that dose daily (especially those on 100mg or more) do not feel high from it, even if they take extra. In fact, methadone has what's called a "blockade effect" which makes it also block out any "high" feeling from other opiates as well. Methadone is a synthetic opiate where as pain killers are opiate derrivitives.

HOLY HELL MAN! I MUST ask where u live that u get dope for 5bux! Man are u LUCKY! I NEVER seen anything less than 20$ where I live. Boy do we get ripped off! Oh sure u can get half a hit for 10$ but if your tolerance is low enough for that to even take the sick off of u then you may as well just take a Vicodin.
