Well let me first start off by saying hello to everyone im new here. I have a question I was wondering if yall could answer for me. The other day SWIM ran across some methadone pills 10 mgs to be exact, well ive been reading up on them and from what i've read the redosing can be tricky. Thursday night about 10:18 to be exact SWIM took 5mg to try it out and see what it would do (SWIM works grave yard) and they felt nothing at all from it. Well when they got home the next morning (Friday morning) at 11:20 they decided to take 20mg (13 hrs later). The high was pretty good they enjoyed it aside from a little nausea and being very sleepy but that came from staying up all day after working all night. Later that night about around 6:20 (7 hrs later) they took another 5mg, and that was it for the day. Well fastforward to right now Saturday morning they have two 10 mg pills left and was wondering if it would be alright for them to take both of them. I know they say it builds up in your system and SWIM had a total of 30mg since Thursday night with their last dose being Friday night (21 hours ago). So would it be alright for SWIM to take the 20mg now or later tonight. they can tell its still in their system a little just no high and still itching lol. As far as ther tolerance goes just about every weekend for the last couple weeks SWIM takes about 50 mgs of hydro or oxycodone a mix of the two sometimes. they are 5'9 and about 190 lbs. Thank yall for reading and your answers in advance.

Should be okay to take another 20MG without the risk of more than nausea or vomitting, however you definitely will want to avoid any other CNS depressants for at least the following 24 hours.
 
Well I figured I would just reply back to this thread instead of creating a completely new one. So excatally how long do these things stay in your system for. SWIM took those 20mg Saturday night and another 10mg last night. Reason I ask is because that was all of that persons supply, and they ran across some oxycodones 10s and 7.5s today. Well ive been reading on the internet and found some stuff saying methadone can nullify the effects of other pain killers, and SWIM don't want to take the chance of "wasting" their supply. So what would be a good wait time to make sure all of that other stuff is out of their system? And will they have to take more than usual because of the methadone that was in their system?
 
Methadone is a VERY tricky opiate.

A lot of people don't understand it really, methadone builds up in your system, meaning if you dose everyday (chronic methadone) it is 2x stronger than non-chronic methadone (dose when needed)....

Example, lets say someone takes 20mg the 1st day, and continues to dose 20mg everyday for weeks or months straight, your methadone will be twice as strong when you started. so 20mg will feel like 40mg.

Its also hard to explain, but opiate naïve people with no tolerance, stay the fuck away from methadone, because it CAN kill you easily.

Exactly. It's also very difficult to quit. Way worse than H. IMO! I use them for 7 years and now that I'm stopping it's literally the worst nightmare I've ever been!!
