Hello and welcome. Yes some people do sweat and it can be profusely. Sweating can be. Very unpleasant side effect of methadone.
Constipation and Sweating
Constipation and sweating are two of the most commonly experienced side effects of methadone maintenance treatment. Methadone users can reduce the severity of constipation by eating a high-fiber diet, getting regular exercise, and making a concerted effort to avoid dehydration. Those who experience excessive sweating while on methadone seem to sweat heavily regardless of the dose taken, and do not develop a tolerance to the effect.
I apologize if there are some mistakes in my sentences. I am on my phone and for some reason lately I have been having trouble getting my sentences to make sense. If you need me to rewrite or rephrase let me know. It has been not fun and I really would like some answers. I have talked to the doctor and they didnt really know. It wasn't my methadone doctor though, since he never saw his patients. And now I am at a new clinic and need to get in to ask him about it too.
