What is the lethal dose of methadone for somebody who is on Meth Maintenance?

[ohhheyy123]

I'm sorry if this is a stupid question but I couldn't find any answers on bluelight or anywhere else.
I've been on methadone maintenance for 90 days and I've been taking 70mg for the last 2 1/2 weeks.
I took my dose at around 11:30 am today and then took another 110mg around 12:30 totally 180mg today.
Do you think I'll be alright? I've been sober off everything else and took the correct dosages until now.
Thanks for your time.

I feel it coming on a good amount now.

On the other hand, would the fact that I took the 110mg an hour after my original dose affect the effectiveness of the 2nd dose? Maybe because the 70mg got a chance to start it's "blocking" effect?

Update:

Its 3:20 pm and I have a slight buzz but otherwise feel totally fine and a little stupid for thinking I was gonna die.

I'm still curious about if the 110mg dose was hindered by the 70mg dose I took an hour prior. If anybody has an answer for that id love to know.

you'll be fine. its kind of a waste to take double your dose , in my experience every time I double-dosed it just made me tired.

Double dosing only made me tired as well. I got in the habit of doing it at one point in my life. Did it several times a week for years. I got to the point were I didn't feel right on my 180 mg dose on my inbetween days. MMT was never the same for me afterwards. Took 600mgs and a couple of mgs of xanax once.. Very stupid... Thank God I am alive.. Even totalled several cars with this practice by falling asleep at the wheel.. I strongly suggest you don"t start double dosing or trying to potentiate your dose with other drugs.. Many lost years on meth, benzos and crack binges.
