Methadone, when used properly, won’t produce life-threatening side effects. However it does have some and these are as follows:
* pruritus
* constipation
* nausea
* confusion
* respiratory depression
* sedation
* mood changes
* dry mouth
* difficulty urinating
* vision problems
* flushing
* stomach pain

When using this medication, caution must always be exercised especially with regard to increase of dosage.

I wonder what’s your age? You see I’m a strong believer in Jesus Christ I know that all things are possible to those who believe. The devil came to kill steal and destroy and one of the things I hate is when he has people in bondage with drugs drugs are evil. many people die from them and my Dad was 42 years old when he died from that poisonous drug I hate that drug with a passion. I was young at the time not knowing what I know now and let me tell you there is power through Jesus blood and you can be free from that lie of that devil. I know people who were in use of this drug and it’s very hard to rid it off but they came to know who God is and have been completely delivered from it and don’t have the urge to ever do it again and the only one who can heal and set free is God. As long as you have a willing heart to allow God to work in your life he will work with you and help with the problem. What would be so hard to give God an opportunity to bless your life that’s all he wants you to have everything he destined you to be. God has good plans for us all we have to do is allow him to become our lord and savior it’s who he is. I believe you can do it without the help of any drug out there you are strong with a mind to decide right from wrong. I will pray for the ones with this problem to no the truth behind who God is. Go to a good church who will teach of his love and truth.
Good luck !
