ok, i take 4 norco(10mg) and 4 oxycodone(10m) per day, still having pain, the pain doc said to take 1/2 a 5 mg methadone at night for one week, then add the other 1/2 in the am, will this small amt do anything? I guess its worth a try, my pain is bad at pm and am, not as bad during the day. Any advice would be appreciated.
Some people make the dumbest comments... I just try to ignore them!
the thing with methadone it is a long acting medication-but your doctor has to becareful how you are going to react to it especially when you are on other narcotics--it also takes a few days to build up in your system
good luck
