Just because somebody takes prescribed pain medication and physically dependent on it does not make them an addict what makes you an addict is whether or not you can stop taking it or not and have control. So if if she were to get off of it go through the detox and then could not stay away from opiates that would make her an actual addict right now she is just physically dependent because of a doctor prescribing pain medication big difference

Actually, it is against the law to take Methadone from a pain clinic FOR THE PURPOSE OF CONTROLLING AN ADDICTION. If the doctor is giving it for pain control, it is not illegal. This is a very grey line for some.

Hello, I'm sorry to hear your concerns. You husband is so lucky to have you. Unfortunately you can and people do abuse methadone. As it comes in larger amounts of liquid than general drug use it usually requires larger syringes or repeated administration. There would be a larger inj. site or multiple ones. If your fears are true then approach your husband carefully, drug abuse is serious and should be handled carefully. The last thing you want is to put him on the defensive. I hope this helps.

That's not true clinics will give it for pain if your dependent and and have no other options.

I go to a Methadone Clinic for pain, because in the US there is a war on pain medication if it contains opiates. I went to a pain doctor for 16yrs. when the DEA came creeping around all the doctors started acting like scared punks, one after another, instead of standing up to the DEA like a so called professional should act. Of coarse there were some bad doctors, that did illegal s***. Anyhow I get my 110 mg and am good for 24hrs.

Oxy
I agree with your colorful description regarding the war on opiate/opioid containing Rx's.I too am a victim of over reaching regulatory bodies that make relief for us legitimate chronic pain sufferers difficult at best.But to put the blame solely on prescriber's is unfair.THERE IS PLENTY OF BLAME TO GO AROUND.
WHOM AMONG US after committing the better part of life to the art of modern medicine while accruing hundreds of thousands in debt would continue carelessly prescribing controlled dangerous substances in the face of overwhelming evidence that a national crisis exists and some remedial action may be necessary to stem the tide of losing a generation of good solid folks otherwise afflicted with this disease of addiction.NO HUMAN DESERVES TO SUFFER FROM A CONDITION WHEN MODERN ADVANCES HAVE BEEN MADE TO BETTER FOCUS TREATMENT ON COMPLIMENTARY MEDICINE.Unfortunately that old school mentality prohibits the contemplation that new school interventional pain modality MAY hold the answer to unrelenting agony.I realize this may not be a popular position for those preoccupied with opiates as the only protocol for painBUT AN OPEN MIND MAY BE THE ANSWER THAT OUR OPIATE BASED SOCIETY NEEDS TO GET OVER THAT MISCONCEPTION. With all due respect I remain sincerely,

Just another random chronic pain sufferer

I live in Australia,the old methodone made by Glaxo is cherry colour,the pink watery methodone is bio done, they have tried to made methodone with less sugar much less,more gentle on belly, so you don't get constipated. Works same but I tend to prefer the Glaxo . Your post is old but thought I'd reply anyway. Good luck with it

Addiction is when you abuse the drug and it causes problems in your life. Dont mistake dependent for addiction. People who take blood pressure meds would be in tough shape without it after two days also and thrre not running around abusing it. Would u say there addicted to there bp meds or dependent on it. Plz dont listen to anyone sitting behibd there keyboard writing mean uneducated opinions just to talk smack. And im wonderung how these low life ended up on a mdoan blog shoveling out non sense. Great use of your time bashing posts from people uve never met or walked a mile in thrre shoes while u sip wine every night

It is different everywhere. I am from Alberta, Canada and here it is orange only cause the actual methadone syrup is clear and they mix it with orange tang here so it doesn't taste awful. I have heard people in other places say there is pink, green, red too.

The bottles it comes in out here is in individual 120ml brown medical bottles. I hope that helps

Yes liquid methadone does come in pink and yes it does look watered-down but if it came from an actual doctor and it was pink then most likely it was correct, but if it came from someone outside and it was pink and look really watered down most likely they diluted it with Tylenol that they buy from the dollar store.

Folks,
I hope serious minded sober individuals disregard ludicrous statements and accounts of this type. Methadone dispensed as liquid exclusively for addiction treatment is so inexpensive in bulk clinics tasked with constant oversight would never risk a cash cow money making enterprise by cutting someone's dose for cost considerations. That's not to say diversion and untoward manipulation by rogue clinical employees don't exist because THEY DO. Nurses are human and often face addiction disorders and like other addicts being treated will often stop at nothing to feed their own personal habit. I'm a recovering addict now drug free working in this industry but for years I worked under the influence.I was a coward and never risked my freedom by diverting this drug for personal use but after undergoing specialized treatment for medical providers exclusively the stories shared often pointed in that direction. I personally never witnessed this but I'm not naive enuff to believe it doesn't happen.My point is methadone maintence for those highly motivated clients has proven to be the most effective protocol available for treating chronic opiate addiction when all prior modalities of treatment have failed.with
Opiate addiction at epidemic proportions we need more evidence based treatment facilities to provide this opiate replacement therapy on a out patient basis BECAUSE IT WORKS.Please take the negative comments and consider the source.If someone has proof I urge you to proceed within the parameters available at individual clinics and obtain an advocate if you so need. Most of all let's support eachother because there are enuff haters trying to extinguish all forms of outpatient drug treatment facilities. God bless you all.

It's impossible to say for sure but NO methadone dispensed at clinics for addiction treatment in the USA DO NOT contain a noticeable sweet and cherry smell like you described. Sadly many addicts are willing to do anything in support of their addiction.

If I put cherry liquid methadone away in a jar for a couple of months, why does it look like little things are floating inside? And is it still good? Would it have the same effect?
