PM ladyboop, sadinmichigan or penelope...all have withdrawn from methadone...i do know it takes a bit longer to feel the full effect of wd that other drugs...other than suboxone as it has a long half life as well...google it as that always helps and there are articles in the health pages on methadone as well....keep posting
