What is Methadone

Methadone, available as Methadose and Dolophine, is an opioid medication (sometimes narcotic). It is a synthetic opioid agonist drug that helps opioid maintenance therapy during opioid dependence and chronic pain management. It is helpful as an analgesic in chronic pain, frequently in rotation with other opioids.

One can achieve detoxification using Methadone within a month, or one can gradually get it done as long as six months. The pain-relieving effect lasts for six hours after a single Methadone dose.

For the treatment of opioid use disorder, doctors recommend using it as maintenance therapy or, in a short period, detoxification to manage opioid withdrawal symptoms.

Important Information

Do not share opioid medication with someone else, especially someone with a past of drug abuse. Misuse of Methadone can cause addiction, death. It is against the law to sell or give away this opioid drug. Do not suddenly stop taking this drug. Before taking the dose, talk to your doctor.

Methadone works on pain receptors in the body and reduces the pain you feel. It may replace other habit-forming opioid drugs. A single dose of this medication has a rapid effect; it can take five days of use to get the maximum impact.

Dispose of the remaining drug carefully. If someone is using this drug improperly or accidentally, just one dose can cause death.

What to know before taking Methadone?

To ensure Methadone is safe for you, tell each of your healthcare providers if you ever had:

  • Sleep apnea, breathing problems;
  • Long QT syndrome (to any family member), heart problems;
  • Mental illness, or drug or alcohol addiction;
  • A brain tumor, head injury, or seizures;
  • Urination problems;
  • Kidney or liver disease;
  • Problems with your pancreas, gallbladder, or thyroid

Older adults, malnourished or debilitated, are more likely to have severe side effects. In addition, using opioid medicine for the longer term may affect the ability to have children (fertility) in men or women. However, it is still a question whether opioid effects on fertility are temporary or permanent. You should avoid using Methadone if you are allergic to it, or if you have:

  • A blockage in your intestines or stomach
  • Asthma (severe) or breathing problems

Avoid breastfeeding because Methadone can pass into the breast milk and cause breathing problems, drowsiness, or death in a nursing baby.  If you are using an opioid medicine during pregnancy, your baby could become drug-dependent. It can cause life-threatening withdrawal symptoms in the newborn baby. An opioid-dependent baby may need treatment for several weeks.

How to take Methadone?

Use Methadone (oral) by mouth. Injection of Methadone is under the skin or into a muscle or infuse into the vein. Your healthcare advisor will teach you to use this injection by yourself. Measure carefully liquid drugs. Use a dosing syringe. Dissolve the dispersible drug tablets in orange juice, water, or other citrus-flavored beverage. Do not use Methadone liquid or tablets to make a mixture for injection into your vein. It may result in death.

Follow your doctor’s prescription, advice, and all the prescription labels or instructions. Never use Methadone in smaller or copious amounts than prescribed. If you are feeling an increased desire to use this medicine, then inform your doctor.

When your doctor gives you Methadone under a treatment program for drug addiction or detoxification, the doctor may recommend taking the dose by a family member or other caregiver. Store Methadone away from heat and moisture at room temperature. Keep track of your drug. Be aware of misusing it or taking it without a prescription because Methadone is a drug of abuse.

Methadone dosage

The initial adult dosage for pain is 2.5 mg to 10 mg IV within every 8 to 12 hours for an opioid non-tolerant patient.
