Have Been On Methadone Program For A Long Time. Have Been Advised To Reduce The Dosage. What To Do Now?
Hi, Thanks for using healthcare magic. I have gone through your history. Methadone can be reduced gradually. You should continue to have counselling or stress management and de addiction psyvchotherapy to avoid going back to drugs. You should self motivate yourself also. In case, if you feel craving for opioid substance, your doctor may increase the dose if required. I hope it will help you. Thanks.
