Hello, Carolyn! How are you doing?

You actually can't get both, so to speak. If you require Methadone treatment for drug addiction, you'll have to go to a treatment clinic, regular doctors aren't allowed to prescribe it for that….which brings me full circle to the other, if you require it for pain, a pain management specialist can't provide addiction treatment with it, it's basically one or the other.

Learn more Methadone details here.

This is a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation.

Additionally, I have no way of knowing what insurance any doctors or clinics accept, what any private doctor prescribes or etc.

Do you currently have a PCP that may be able to refer you to someone? That might be the easiest way to do it.

Can anyone suggest a place in that area?
