I had it. The list goes on and on. Stinging sensation all over, pain in left eye, swelling of face, hands and feet, severe loss of memory, severe confusion, vomiting, severe sweating, nodding off all of a sudden like, double vision, blurred vision. My memory is sooo bad still yet, I'm not sure if I mentioned it all. | I read alot of the comments listed on your site. I can not believe the people who | M | 38 | 10 days | 5/23/2003 | 1 | detox from vicodin . | I have gained almost 40 pounds,I am 35 yrs. old I have never been bigger than a size 5.Now I can not even get in a size 9/10. It is very depressing to me, I crave nothing but sweets. Does anyone have any suggestions for me? | F | 35 | 3 years | 3/11/2003 | 2 | opiate withdrawels | Replacing one addiction for a worse one is not the answer, I would rather do 2 Heroin clucks than a Methadone withdrawal! Im now 4 months clean an still have the sweets an the runs! | M | 32 | 10 years 60 | 5/21/2014 | 2 | 12 year heroin addiction | Methadone is the bain of my life I carnt function without it so its as good as being on street drugs except the people who give u it wont be arrested I csuppose better than spending the full day trying to get enough money to score for me it seems the same as b4 but with out the criminal activity im not saying its no good I would just weigh up the pros and vons before you allow a doctor to start you because there are other options available okey dokey! | M | 34 | 8 years 120mg day | 9/2/2012 | 2 | Heroin addiction | Extreme sleepiness, nodding out when in any sitting position for more than a few mins (reading, smoking, etc.), body jerks when sleeping, nausea, sweating, tremendous weight gain (20+ lbs in 3 months!!!!!), crave sugars, no motivation, no sex drive, headaches, severe constipation, laziness | I was on 75mg at my highest and started tapering after 2 months. i can't wait to get off this HORRIBLE drug. Another s***** thing is you HAVE to taper SLOWLY or else you'll have withdrawals 100xs worse than coming off heroin cold turkey. | F | 30 | 5 months 60mg 1X day | 7/15/2012 | 2 | Makes me feel AWFUL | I was prescribed this stuff to help deal with my horrific musculoskeletal injuries caused to me by the antibiotic Ciprofloxacin (look THAT drug up if you want to read nightmarish stories!) While it does help with some of my pain, I CANNOT stay conscious on this stuff and it makes me feel mentally retarded. I can't focus or concentrate my mind and I fade in and out of consciousness for up to 12 hours at a time, all the while having odd hallucinatory "dreams." Despite the fact I seem to sleep constantly on this stuff, I'm still completely exhausted once it wears off so evidently the "sleep" I get while on methadone is not of good quality. I finally started cutting my 10mg pills into EIGHTHS which seems to help reduce the mental side effects, but the painkilling effectiveness is significantly reduced as well, obviously. Often I choose to just endure my pain rather than have this stuff blast my cognitive function. Lastly, I'm very concerned with what I'm reading here about tooth decay. Not cool! Why isn't that on the warning label? | M | 31 | 1.25 1X day | 5/13/2011 | 2 | F | 61 | 8 years | 12/30/2009 | 2 | Fibromyalgia | Just constipation but let me tell you I was able to #2 better with this medicine than Morphine. | I am right now taking the 5 mg 3x a day and vicodin 8 tabs in a day. The methadone is working very little. I am going to have her increase it. | F | 26 | 10 days | 1/6/2008 | 2 | never | you addicts make it hard for people that need pain meds to obtain the meds they need....The DEA frowns on the people in real pain by their government measures. | F | 34 | 9 days | 2/15/2007 | 2 | Heroin | The kick from methadone is 10 times worse I was on regular maintance and it was horrible I almost would rather be strung | F | 21 | 1 years | 12/12/2006 | 2 | chronic pain | blurred vision, dry eyes, massive headache, very itchy, constipation, lethargic and very tired but deprived me of sleep at the same time, fuzzy brain so bad was afraid to even drive to the deli down the street. Weight gain!! | had high hopes for this medication..hoped for chronic pain relief w/o side effects so I could have abit of "normalcy" and function in daily life. It helped my pain nominally but the side effects were so bad it wasnt worth it for me. Had much better pain releif with less side efects from demerol with oxycodone coming in second. Tapering off now w/ MD supervision b/c dependency can happen within a week of taking. have 3 days left to go and then good riddance to this med! | F | 34 | 8 days | 3/25/2006 | 2 | chronic pain | blurred vision, dry eyes, massive headache, very itchy, constipation, lethargic and very tired but deprived me of sleep at the same time, fuzzy brain so bad was afraid to even drive to the deli down the street. | had high hopes for this medication..hoped for chronic pain relief w/o side effects so I could have abit of "normalcy" and function in daily life.

Co-workers who I barely spent any time with pulled me to the side and stated that I appeared really different, and incredibly detached. Had to go back to the percs. | Initial pain relief was damn near spiritual... side effects out weighed the good. | M | 46 | 4 months | 10/9/2005 | 2 | Spinal Cord & Disk Injury | I feel Fatigue,Drowsiness,Insomnia,Twitching,Severe Confusion,Itching,Nausea,Headaches,Sweating & have Depression with this medication. | Little to no help on pain. Not worth the side effects. | M | 39 | 7 days | 4/25/2004 | 2 | heroin addict | night terrors, sleeping disorders, telepathy? | People told me they could hear my dreams... | M | 23 | 6 months | 12/6/2003 | 2 | back injury | none. taking the medicine affected me as much as taken a baby asprin would have. I got no relief fron it. I hope it does work for some.. | M | 21 days | 6/4/2003 | 2 | Lower Back Pain | I have had weight gain, which I certaintly didn't need. | I have been on Vicodin, Percocet,Morphine Patch (which put me in the hospital with blood clots),oxycotin, ms-cotin, now my pain management doctor wants me to try methadone hcl 10 mg 1 tablet 4 times a day, I have found no help in the drug at all except weight gain. | F | 35 | 48 days | 2/18/2003 |
