Is it true that they are going to quit making methadone?


my neighbor ask me to look on the computer cause her doctor said they were going to quit making it and took her off it

Best Answer -

no, they are not going to quit making methadone. methadone is a powerful pain medication and it is also used for people in the hospital to wean them off opiates. It is used for chronically ill people in the hospital as well. They are, however, starting to regulate it more out in the public. Methadone clinics will soon be a thing of the past and doctors are beginning to be more reluctant in prescribing patients methadone. especially if they are going to get a prescription and go home out in the public with it. there are so many overdoses b/c of methadone that it is a huge problem.

methadone is THE most addictive medication out there and it is more difficult to get off of than heroin. your friend needs to be weaned off of it slowly.
