What are your thoughts on Methadone for post car wreck pain?

1 Answer

Answer :

answer:Well, it is what you get to ween you off heroin. But Methodone is also super addictive, just less bad. I am not a doctor but I had a roommate and best friend that went through the heroin -> Methadone process a few times. It isn’t pretty. I can’t think of a single reason to give out Methodone for pain management. There are other less addictive drugs that should provide the same comfort.
