My husband had back surgery, and was prescribed, Methadone as one of the many drugs he is on, Its so aggravating this drug!
It make him itch like crazy, deprives, his sleep which means mine too, and reduces sex drive ,This in my opinion, is a selfish drug!
I have voiced my reservations/concerns on
him taking this drug he says he will talk to his DR. all i know is he is NOT himself since he has been on this drug! anyone else out here have a family member on this drug, that effects them as well?

Methadone? yikes. I am so sorry. Tell the doctor that he will not be taking it anymore and go without, or get a different drug.
Methadone is evil.

Do not stop taking this drug without consulting with the doctor first. He may need to reduce it slowly. Talk to the doctor.

I used to work in a meth clinic. Believe me, the drug addicts become addicted to Meth. Go back to your doctor and have him weened off the drug now.

methadone is a synthetic opiate, I have a sister who can't take any opiates for pain killers..Maybe you could ask the docter for a painkiller that's not an opiate.....
