  • What are you, trying to do a Keith Ledger? Leave prescription drugs alone! Where the he11 are you getting oxycontin anyway? Get a life...and try a natural high.
  • bad idea. it could kill you. methadone is released slowly so you can%26#039;t control/gauge the amount of morphine in your brain (they are both processed into morphine in your brain) therefore at higher risk of overdose. people die doing this. methadone doesnt block other opiates, it just blocks you from feeling them (you can still o.d.) naloxone needs to be used for an o.d. it would be more fun to take them separate and waaay safer.

    Mortality
    According to the National Center for Health Statistics, as well as a 2006 series in the Charleston (WV) Gazette,[10] medical examiners listed methadone as contributing to 2,992 deaths in 2003, up from 790 in 1999. Approximately 82% of those deaths were listed as accidental- and most deaths involved combinations of methadone with other drugs (especially benzodiazepines). my boyfriend and his friends are ex users
