thanks for info--- I  am aware of that -- give  this a thought  could it /narcan condense 2days of pain into 1 of course  adding a great more intensity . My other ? do you think --ex.+=  drug test  on friday....  been detoxed 10mgs. every 2 days  to 0 -and with a little (10 or 20mgs)help surving torture/ I seem to be getting  use to 20 to30 daily. now I take narcan on wed night and medicate sleep thursday is death -friday comes the test ..do 20mgs to get back to world and take test. Curious what screen would show? Now realize that I am otherwise healthy 54 yr old male and football thru college has beat me good -went on methadone legally about 8-9 yrs. back -high 140 took a year to level out at 65 then politics and disagreement with clinic doc= detoxed saying I qualify for pain management. Ky has medevial regulations and I will make this transition but if too much time goes by between last trip to clinic and I test positive for "done" -they will say street drug. What catch 22? hey?  Just curious of oppinions ..

Narcan counteracts the lethal effect of a drug when you are in overdose, I do not think it would help withdrawals, it would put you into withdrawals...
