If I Take 130mg Of Methadone Per Day Will A 60mg Morphine Sulfate Help Get Me Through One Day? (Page 3) (Top voted first)

Updated

I go to a methadone program and have for about 4 years. I've recently had the flu which caused me to vomit up my methadone (I get 5 take home bottles per week). Tried taking another bottle and threw up again. I'm feeling sick from not taking it so I took a 60 mg morphine sulfate pill. Will this help at all?

Methadone stays in your system a long time, it has a long half life. I don't think you really need the morphine tablet. It's psycho-somatic.

I know this is an old post, but no, they don't make a 90 mg morphine pill. And why would you take that AND a Valium while waiting on your methadone dose? Are you TRYING to kill yourself? Pretty stupid!

Dilaudid is NOT MORPHINE it's
Hydromorphone a synthesized keytone of the MORPHINE TYPE. Molecular weight is approx 7-10 stronger.I SUGGEST YOU DO THE RESEARCH the pdr for narcotic abusers or newbies don't count.

I went one step further I consulted my staff pharmacologist and she confirmed that there is indeed a difference all be it similar. Hence patients allergic to morphine can use dilaudid and vice versa so deff. Not the same. If anyone would know it would be her.. I tend to believe a pharmacologist over a pharmacist any day. I guess it's back to the books lol

Im from the UK & I just looked up the opioid conversion chart our lovely Docs use over here. Liquid morphine (Oramorph 10mg/5ml) is 10mg to each 5ml dose so 120mg/ml of Methadone liquid 1mg/1ml would be 60ml of oramorph equal to 120mg/ml of Methadone. Hope this helps :-)

When someone replies to the Original Poster's thread, with a question of their own needing advice, etc.. That's called thread hijacking. Just FYI. I suggest starting your own thread, you'll get more response that way (plus it's common courtesy to not reply to someone's post unless you have something to offer to the thread, not just "help me!")

just sayin :)

Now, your question:

WHY WHY WHY would you take "some pill" from "some guy" in a pharmacy??? I seriously can't even wrap my brain around this one. I almost do hope something happens as a result- if nothing else, to teach you a well-deserved lesson you won't forget again: DONT TAKE CANDY FROM STRANGERS!

You have been at a methadone clinic for eight years and are congratulating yourself for just now being on what 65? You should not be giving advice to anyone.
