Time For Methadone To Be Out Of My System?
UpdatedI took a Methadone today, I'm not sure if it was a 5 or 10 mg. How long will it take to get out of my system?

Hello,
The half-life of Methadone varies greatly. Wikipedia notes that it is anywhere between 24-36 hours, while more credible sources estimate that it can range from 15-55 hours.
Keep in mind though that the length of time following drug use for which a positive result may occur is dependent upon several factors including the frequency and amount of usage, metabolic rate, excretion rate, drug half-life, and the drug user’s age, weight, activity, and diet.
Having said that, it truly depends on the rest of your lifestyle as well.

I took 18 pills 10mg each in a total of 6 days. I have md and I only took it because of my chronic pain. I now have my regular prescription 10mg Norfolk and I don't feel the effects. How long until my system is back to normal and my norco will start as it did before?
