How Long Does Methadone Stay In Your System For A Urine Test (Page 10)

I just took two ten mg methadone pills. Will they be out by Thursday? I drink a lot of water. Please let me know soon as possible.

Methadone usually takes 6 days, wait 7 to be safe.

Sorry if rebooting a old thread is against the rules, but this topic is coming up #1 on google for multiple related questions and that is simply more important that any forum rules are.

For anyone in chronic pain, where the chronic pain is lessening the quality of their life, taking a medication to treat that pain will increase the quality of life almost always while they are under the effects of the medication.

Unfortunately, in today's society, the war on drugs has been increased especially over the last year or two, sense most of the posts in this thread. Which means that until the demonization of opiates ends, their ability to rejuvenate and allow chronic pain sufferers to go from having lives that essentially some are better off dead to being able to live the life they used to before they suffered from chronic pain.

It's important to understand that the cost to stop 10 junkies from getting their next fix should NEVER be at the cost of stopping someone suffering from chronic pain for 10 years from ever receiving proper medical treatment for their chronic pain.

If I took 100mg of methadone, why is it still detectable in my urine after two weeks?

From someone that was on methadone for the same amount of time as you it literally took several months for me to get out of my system. I was taking 50mgs a day and my doctor took me completely off in December of 2016 I just tested negative this month. But I have an extremely slow metabolism and I'm overweight, so each person is different.

Re: me (# 5)

I know this is old but yeah you can take them with it. I wouldn't really recommend it, especially because of the acetaminophen thinning your blood out; it'll really intensify the methadone, but word of advice, get off the methadone completely. That s***s bad news. It's worse than opioids, when you get it as a liquid the bottle says "Take orally. May be fatal." That's kind of messed up. I'm assuming yours are pills but same goes for those and don't drink alcohol with it at all. One beer and one methadone can kill you. I know because a friend died this way. I do understand the need for painkillers and also the addiction side of it too, but for real, try to get it out of your life. It will slowly ruin your life without you noticing and then it is too late and nothing will be the same ever. I wish you the best.

I use my dose for detox but also per docs advice, split it daily for pain. I'm slowly weaning off but am afraid how bad the chronic pain I have will be the lower my dose.oh well. Thanks for the advice & reply.

Thank you. I tested w/ urine Tues & it came back no methadone in my system. So sending it back to lab but can't figure how that's possible. Still waiting for results.

I don't know many if any opiate addicts that take methadone recreationally. Either on a program or it will keep them from withdrawing. It really has no euphoric effects.

Re: me (# 5)

Once u start taking methadone or suboxone, I wouldn't take anything else cause being that both are blockers, you'd be wasting them and if u wanna just stay with tabs then I would take a week maybe 5 days without taking anything like methadone or suboxone before anything else to work... And never mix methadone and suboxone together cause u will detox.
