question about methadone and withdrawel.

[masumune]

If someone took say 20 mgs methadone the day or the day after they stopped feeling the physical effects of opiate withdrawel, would the withdrawels come back full force or would they be in the clear? Is there too much body chem involved to answer this properly?

It depends how far along you were with the detox. If you were completely done with acute withdrawal, you will probably be ok.

Say 4 or 5 days along.
