Can Methadone Abuse Be Confirmed By A Test
UpdatedThe mother of my child is in a methadone program. She sleeps a lot and I've seen her nodding off on the couch but not lying back, sitting up! When I ask her about anything to do with her addiction problem she does not want to talk about it! If I press her she gets quick tempered and hostile! I think she's buying extra methadone and abusing it because she shows all the signs of it from what I've read about it and I fear for my child's safety!

Yes, it is a narcotic opiate, so it could be discovered via various exams.
The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth, and constipation.
Is she on any other medications? Have you tried consulted a social worker?
