Generally, the same reason that any other doctor would do blood work, on top of checking the levels of controlled substances in your body, they also check the functions of your vital organs by looking at various enzyme levels, to make sure it is safe for you to undergo treatment with the Methadone. Some health problems, such as kidney diseases, require a dosage adjustment. Additionally, they will also want to make sure that the person is seeing a doctor regularly for proper treatment, and monitoring, of any existing conditions.

Methadone carries the risk of being habit forming, and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, constipation, dry mouth, and headache.

How are you doing? Have you started it, yet?
