Are you both going to clinics to get your methadone? Or have scripts at home? Either way it's not frowned upon to be on methadone here in the states. You guys should have no problem.

Hello, Nat! How are you?

This is a controlled substance, but with proper prescription documentation you can bring enough with you for the duration of your stay. This is a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation.

Make sure you bring medical documentation and to leave the Methadone in the original identifying containers.

Is there anything else I can help with?
