Methadone Elimination Half-Life
The average half-life for methadone ranges between 8 - 59 hours depending upon dose, hepatic health, polysubstance use, age and gender. Methadone is a lipophilic opiate that is predominantly metabolized by N-demethylation into the in-active metabolite EDDP. In fact, most methadone drug screenings test for EDDP.
Methadone Clinic Nightmare
Methadone clinic treatment programs come in two modalities; detoxification and maintenance.
The first line of opiate treatment is methadone detox which usually lasts 28 days or less. Methadone is used to treat heroin addiction and prescription opiate addiction. Most methadone clinics start clients on a low dose of methadone then raise the dose until the client is stabilized.
The second, final and most addictive opiate addiction treatment program is methadone maintenance, known as opiate replacement therapy. Opiate replacement therapy causes methadone addiction. Methadone replacement therapy has a history of producing disastrous consequences for many opiate addicts.
You do not have to let methadone addiction happen to you.
Methadone History
