Dr Prescriptions For Methadone In Fl (Top voted first)

Tim Says:
I have just moved to south FL. and been on methadone for 10 years. I have all my records, but Dr's. in FL are all scared to take on new people from out of state. Trust me when i say It's only to take care of my 82 year old mom that I moved. I will be moving right back to Ca. when I can, but for now can anyone help with a DR.? It seems they have no problem putting you on suboxone which is a very $$$$$$$ narcotic, but does nothing for pain.

Hello, Tim! How are you? Sorry about the problem that you're having.
Are you checking with doctors offices by asking if they'll prescribe Methadone?
If so, that's likely a big part of the problem, they will see that as being drug seeking behavior.
Your best bet is to set up an appointment with a doctor, without asking if they'll prescribe it and then let your medical records speak for you.
Learn more Methadone details here.
But most aren't going to want to prescribe it, due to its own highly addictive nature. You'll also most likely need to establish a relationship with a PCP first, who can then refer you to pain management.
And Suboxone can also treat pain, I'm not sure who told you that it doesn't.

If that's what's been suggested to you, then it's also highly likely that many places you've contacted assume you've been taking the Methadone for addiction and private doctors are not allowed to prescribe it for that. That can only be done in a clinical setting by someone specially trained in its use for such.
