Updated
SJJ Says:
My husband is taking liquid methadone has been for about four years and this morning he noticed his medicine was cloudy and then he took his other doses out and found several others of his doses were too. They were filled at the same time. Is this supposed to happen? And is it common? He said he hasn't bee feeling right for the last couple of days. I am worried, has anyone have this happen to thiers? And what could cause it?

Hey I am on 155mg 15.5ml of 10mg per 1 ml methadone solution. It's basically similar in taste to oxy mixed in a rig.... Very similar taste and much better than the Cherry concentrate garbage.

I feel the clinic I go to does the same thing. My friend goes to another clinic 1hr away n his methadone is so much stronger it's crazy. So I know how ya feel. Turn the f***ers in. They don't give 2 f***s bout us. A bunch of us at my clinic called the medical complaint board. That's who u need to call.

Do you get take homes? Is it just your take homes that are cloudy? My clinic gives pill form wafers in water sealed in #2 hdpe bottles at first I thought it was the recycled bottled giving my medicine a cloudy color with whites particles and an awful taste but I've figured out what it is. I initially thought my husband was robbing me and putting crushed Tylenol back in the methadobes place leaving just enough of the orange methadone to maintain the color. I did several things to make sure there was no way he could access them and it still kept happening. I began to really pay attention to the variable and I noticed that when one of the bottles got knocked over inside my lock box it would be the one that was cloudy and tasted bad. I am nearly 90% certain that the culprit is the PE foam liner that is used to seal the take home bottles. If the bottle gets tipped over it begin to dissolve the foam liner in the lid which causes the methadone to become cloudy leaves behind tiny white particles and leaves behind a terrible almost acrylic taste that can sometimes burn the back of your mouth. If everyone reports this we can get it changed. I have no proof of this last claim but I believe a chemical reaction also occurs between this material and the methadone causeing the dose to lose potenicy.

I think it's because a lot of clinics water it down because I noticed mine are different colors too some days better than others

Very well put my friend! People like to comment on methodone that have no idea what it actually does for people who use it for the right reasons. Granted you might trade one for another but it has saved my life I'm able to work and live a normal life once again. Of course there going to be people who abuse the situation. Good luck my friend

Educate yourself Says:
You have not clue what you are saying. You DONT high from the methodone so I suggest you educate yourself before you start making accusations that have no basis. There are people that have been on it for 25 years. It's proven medically the longer you're on it the less likely you are to relapse. Yes there probably people who abuse the situation but to make the comment you made is dumb.

I know it's months late but your definitely right. It's def not free at least not for me or most. Every state and clinic is different. I've paid anywhere from 20$ for a week to 16$ a freakin day. It's great to see we can still get jobs like that pharmacy tech and basically whatever else and love a normal happy quality life. The quality of my life is most important. Peace love and happiness. This allows me to do all that and more. It's not an easy decision to make and the choice is rather humbling. I'm glad to see someone like yourself on here. Best wishes enjoy your weekend!

Some independent pharmacies make it on site as it is cheaper than buying in pre-made solution from Martindale which although is liquid 1mg/1ml its branded as Physeptone much like the 5mg tablets which are not readily prescribed due to being very easy to inj.! Anywho the pharmacy next village from me which most of you may know of, Dunblane. And unlike your chains like Lloyds, boots, etc, Dunblane pharmacy is an independent one and all recovering addicts on methadone were complaining of severe withdrawals!! Needless to say this was very hard for friends of mine to prove it was the pharmacy at fault, as after all recovering or even recovered addicts all lie, cheat and steal!!! Small minded people don't start me on that subject! But needless to say it turned out the chemist was handing out methadone, free methadone!!?? Apparently the active ingredient or not enough was equated to the amount of whatever it is mixed with? SO YEAH GET THIS CHECKED OUT FRIEND. Hope your well by the time you see this message. Thanks for listening. Regards, A friend.
