Suggest Depression Medication While On Methadone, Ability And Oxycodone
What antidepressant would you use in a 30 yo very athletic tennis teacher who take 40 mg of methadone who has huge amounts of anxiety and withdrawal every evening. He is on a small dose of Ability at night. He has rejected treatment by a nationally known addiction treatment center because he works full time. He is still using oxycodone in the evening for sinus pain from allergiies. Any other anti anxiety agents that will not be addictive?

Hi,
Both these medicines you mention are for pain only! Once psychological check up should be taken.
