  • ATTENTION!!! Are you on Methadone? If so, be very careful. If you have acne breakouts or cysts on your face when you never did before you should change pharmacy immediately. Are you liked by the people giving the methadone. If you have problems with them or have ill feelings whenever you dose, you might want to go elsewhere asap. Even if you only suspicious, chances are you are right. Things are not how they were 10 yrs ago. Watch Out and try to stay alert, your life may be in danger! Mine was!

  • ATTENTION!!! Not all Methadone is the same. I hate Methadone but as a user of 20+ yrs I can tell you, there are at least 3 different types. Regardless of what ppl say, they are NOT the same. I myself will travel across the city each pickup as finding a good pharmacy is extremely hard. Add to the fact that the strength can vary up to 50% and some pharmacists spiking the juice with other drugs and people wonder why there are so many deaths. Many of these deaths are actually unknown murders!!

  • @firekitty65 thats how my brother died overdosed on it and died in his sleep

  • Respond to this video... My nephew was found dead over the weekend from an apparent Methadone overdose. This is the second kid I know to die from taking it. It was not prescribed to him he just sought it out and took it. Everyone pays for drug abuse not just the abuser.

  • @repelghosts

    I think you have methadone confused with methamphetamine. The names are similar so I can see why you thought they were the same drug.

  • my friends wife had this problem when he was over the road and her family told me not to tell him about it but i had to cause she had there kids at home

  • invented by hitler's regime in the www2 as they ran low on norphine and meth was cheaper and pretty well had the same efficacy.

  • @hottestloserever Yes, I realise that. No doctor (of any repute) would prescribe Methadone with co-existing Crohns. Methadone (like it or not) is the most successful treatment for opiate dependence, as statistics show. I'm not surprised to hear she 'blacked out' while being given Methadone 4 hourly; anyone (including opiate users) would too! It sounds like she's had Harold Shipman as her GP! I hope she's alot better now and has found a new, competent doctor. If not, find her one fast! Cheers.

  • @qantasCapt he perscribed it as a pain killer for her back not the disease
