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?

your methadone isn in a brown bottle because it is absolutly ruined by sunlight ...and for some reason if you transfer it into an aluminum container some but not all ruin it aswell. now if your not trying to preserve extra which is the only time ive seen it go like that ten its been left to the heat or it was out of date.to preserve freeze

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.

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

yes take a baby syringe that measures milliliters in teaspoons every milliliter is 10 milligrams or 1cc per 10 MLG 1ml is 10 MLG so 5ml is 50 or 5 cc is 50 mlg

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.

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.

Re: Fed up (# 17)
You obviously have no idea what the f*** your talking about. I am a Pharmacy Tech, and I have been addicted to Opiates since I was 18. Methadone does not create that "rush" most opiates have. Your other comment, "free" I pay $80 a week for my methadone, as well as being forced to go to a therapist, and 2 drug panels a month. Only a very very small percentage gets it for free. In Detroit it's 90% cash based, some clinics dont take any insurance. Next time mind your F*** buisiness, especially if you have no idea WTF your talking about. I've seen alcohol do worse things to people, things opiates would never do.. dumb people wreck it for everyone.

Re: Fed up (# 17)
First of all you don't feel HIGH but if you don't have it u feel like s***. It is the government way of making money from the addicts. Withdrawing from other opioids is a picnic in comparison and they don't care about your sobriety because if you are 1 minute late they won't dose u and laugh when you beg so don't get it twisted it ain't no party.

How are you guys getting liquid from a pharmacy, I thought you can only get that from a clinic, I was getting it from my pcp for pain and they just cut me, because of all these drs getting arrested. They referred me to pain management but no luck yet. I'm on long Island if any one knows of any where I can go please let me know. Thank you
