Hi ya.
20 year prescription med addict here on day 5 of methadone maintenance treatment (mmt).
Having failed with buprenorphine maintenance, 5 days ago I started mmt. I'm not sure if I'm taking too much or too little plus what's your opinion on dosing twice in the day for maintenance?
I take 15mg 7 a.m then 15mg 3 pm. But a few hours after each dose I feel really tired (a nice kinda tired but I have a family and professional job that I want to function for). My mood is great 24h a day. I have no WD symptoms anymore and feel good appart from tiredness,heavy eyed, bit dizzy n woozy and bit dopey!
My Dr actually tried to get me on 40mg on day 2 but I've just stuck at between 20-30.
I'm smoking too many ciggys! And I'm tired for a few hours each day that's my only complaint. It's been a dream compared to bupe.
So I'm thinking doing 10mg a.m & pm tomorrow. Tbh i really only wanted to dose once a day in order to break those addict habits but if I only dose once it will have to be my a.m & pm dose combined and I will feel high all morning!
What do u think?
Thanks guys
