Opioids Going from Oxy IR to Methadone. Help.

[chuckster11]

Ok I've tried Sub and it was ok but I never could kick everything so I got about 10 10mg Methadone Pills to try and switch over to them. I take about 10-15 Roxi's a day and really want to switch over but I have no clue were to start and how much I'll need to take of the methadone to help at first without taking yo much and how long you have to wait before taking your first methadone dose after your last Roxie dose. I was also told it sometimes take hours before you even feel the effects of Methadone after you take it and I don't want to think it's not helping and take another and have it be too much. I tried searching on here and Google for these questions but couldn't find any direct answers so I posted a thread. Any help and stories and suggestion is gonna be a big help I hope I can start the methadones and taper down in the next few weeks. Thanks.

Hey OP this has been covered many times. Have you checked out the methadone threads listed in the Other Drugs Directory which is prominently displayed at the top of the forum as well as in all the mods signatures?

Methadone Dosing

I'm just going to close this thread but once you've read through all that and The Methadone Mega Thread and FAQ if you still have questions you can post in The Methadone Mega Thread or PM me and I'll merge this post in with it okay?

Good luck getting off the oxy!
