Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advise.
Methadone is usually used. However without treating physician's advice don't change medication. Besides methadone is prescription drug so you need to get it prescribed.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
