My wife has been taking, and abusing her methadone for pain. She is up to 80 mg a day and has 11 10mg pills left. she can fill it for 2 weeks. We don't have money for medical detox. What can we do?

HI and welcome to the forum your in a real jam here best bet is take them to avoid the withdrawal as long as you can 80mg is a lot to jump from but we have members who jumped as high as 120 its not pritty but it is doable keep posting for support you might want to let your wife know about this site it will be helpful if she got it other then thst get up to walmart and pick up a 3 in 1 vitamin calcium magnesum zinc start taking 4 in the morning and 4 with dinner this will greatly cut down on your withdrawals push the fluids by a case of gatoraid that and a good hot soak will help keep posting for support this forum was priceless when I detoxed from methadone it a monster to kick but it can be done good luck and God bless.......................Gnarly........................................
thanks for posting....i personally don't have experience with methadone but lots of people on the forum do...it's sort of slow on the weekends so keep checking for postings.....this site is great for info and advice...good luck to you and your wife....hopefully she can stop altogether soon.
