I just shot up like a 45mil of oxy about 3 days ago or so. I am super sick right now with a fever. Just took ibuprofen and aleeve. I feel like shit....

I have ten 10miligram methadones......im curious to take one but and am complete newbie with methadone.

I don't want to withdraw. What is a good dose to start with and cut cold turkey at for a little high to help me through my sickness? lawl.
Im thinking about taking a 10mil pill or maybe breaking it and taking 5 milligrams? ..not sure


also prior about 6-8 days ago now I shot up a total of 440 milligrams of dilaudid which i tapered off at 2miligrams for the last two days and quit cold turkey with benzos.

any feedback about the methadone would help, please and thanks =)

fuck man if no-one can give me any advice in the next 30 min i think I'm just gonna pop a 5mil then maybe pop the other 5 if its not chill enough lol .... i feel like shiiiiit -____-
 
You got it right. Methadone takes a while to kick in, several hours or so, and has an extremely long half-life. Remember you can always add but not take away. 440 milligrams of dilaudid, you scored there, thats my fav. opioid :)
 
It's kind of hard to say, becaue it sounds like you had been shooting quite a but if dilaudid, quit that for three days, than shot some oxy, which revived the withdrawals. Ten mg of methadone should be enough at this point to make you feel a lot better. But like kidContin said, methadone can take a real long time to kick in, so wait about two hours before deciding to redose. The first time I took methadone it took about three hours to hit me, and after the first hour (I had dosed 50mg), I took another 50mg because I thought I didn't take enough. That was a big mistake, because after three hours, it all hit me at once, and I was dangerously high.
 
patience young grasshopper . take one of the 10mg methadone tablets and see what happens. you should be just fine
 
thanks guys ahah yeah I was super impatient that day because I was sick. I ended up going to my doctor and scoring a bottle of tussionex cough syrup(10mil hydro per teaspoon) so I was justttttt fiiiiiiine for the next 2 days heh =) but today was having a lil hydrocodone sickness but I Just took 20mil of methadone and feelin mellow=) I think I'm just going to not redose on the methadone and be done till i score my next script of dill's =D sorry for posting such a rushed topic haha.... one love<3
