I have taken most pain meds and methadone has worked the best although stopping is a nightmare.

Methadone has saved my life. This is the only pain medication that lasts long enough for me to be able to work a FT job, and not to have to re-dose and re-dose multiple times a day.

I have been on methadone for 11 years. It is the only thing that gives me relief from the pain. After 3 back surgeries and over 100 procedures I have some sort of life. With everything there are good days and not so good days but no bad days anymore

Methadone in a small dose was added to my neurontin for severe leg and arm pain related to my multiple sclerosis. It was the only narcotic for me that truly helped without any bad side effects. I do have a swallowing disorder so I am seeking a liquid form, or another way to administer other than oral. Thank you. Utah patient
