i am coming off methadone. was taking 80mg,now im on 30mg. the real secret is coming off GRADUAL. your body AND MIND must completely adjust to any decrease... even just 3mg. i suggest dropping 5mg-10mg at a time. allow approx. 2-3 months on new dose before another decrease.when you get down to the last 15mg then take it even more gradual. linger if u must at that point for a while. this is NECESSARY IN ORDER TO HELP PREVENT RELAPSE. best advice? take it SLOW. ALSO VITAMIN C in high dose (15000 - 25000)does WONDERS for withdrawls. one more thing its hard to kick a habit. its easy to get overwhelmed during this time so rem. not to be too harsh with ur self!
