What I am saying in relation to his question is if he pops up for suboxone they might not think he is ready to start dosing because the suboxone might not be all out of his system yet and still on his receptors to the point it might still have a blocking affect which in turn would make the methadone ineffective. And he is asking could he jump right from the sub to methadone which he can’t and if the clinic see this on a test it might take even longer to start dosing based on their regulations and rules. And what i was trying to say is if he did a proper taper/detox before going into the progarm we would not have to worry about the whole suboxone methadone thing he is asking about.

But yes you are supposed to come up dirty for opiates at a methadone clinic when first tested in most cases. But not in all cases I actually came up clean as a whistle when I took my test but they knew I was switching from suboxone and detoxed off it to start methadone after talking with the DR my first visit.

i bet you were high as a kite! you started at zero tolerance> then started mdone at 30 mg? and are @ 170? now? wow-nod fest
