Is there any way to wash methadone out of system?

Is there anything I can do to get rid of the methadone that is in my system?  I personally think that the methadone is worse than the O/C's.  I would like to just start taking the 30mg ocycodone and taper from there instead of the methadone which i am almost almost out of.  Any ideas? I do not want it to block my feelings of euphoria once i take it again, thats the only thing i look forward to when i am in this much back pain. Its a plus anyway, if i have to have this much pain is what i mean, sorry.

You sound like you are threading on dangerous ground mixing and matching strong narcotics abut not wanting to block euphoria? This isn't really a recovery question but I wish you all the best

LOL! Addictedme.
  Be careful with the methodone. Im not sure if you know, it does stay in your system and builds up. You could very eaily OD if you had enough methodome in your system and started reaching for the euphoric feeling in Oxy.
  Im not trying to promote the drug use, but I just dont want to see you OD.
peace

You shouldnt have any problem at all if you arent taking a huge amount of something...and the methadone is worse than the oxycodone. That is, if you arent snorting the oxy - thats a different parameter to deal with....but methadone is probably the worst w/d that you can come across.....you can still survive it, though - -

I c......now I understand what you are saying.  How many mgs. are your Oxy's....? And, you say you just had methadone sitting in your cupboard ???  Is it the Oxy's or the Methadone you want out of your system? If its the methadone, if you want to be safe...wait a couple days.......and, it depends on how many you take for pain???

Ino lots of questions.......I guess I am still confused.

Nauty...........

I am almost out of methadone. but i have like 400 of the oxys and legitimate pain.  So i want to go back to the oxys, the methadone i only took because someone stold my pills and i been out for 2 weeks and no one would help me.  i was lucky to have some old methadone laying in the cupboard.  So i want to get the oxy out of my system quick so i don't od or something.
