Methadone. Wonder drug. Saved my life.---In WWII German supply lines were cut by American/British bombing raids every nite. Subsequently supplies, weapons, resupply AND medicines could not get thru. Adolph Hitler--that wacky Nazi-- told his medical staff to come up w/ an "opiate like" pain med. (Mr. Hitler was not only thinking of the troops--he had a bit of an opiate AND amphetamine habit himself.)ANYWAY thanks to a few smart German Docs who were probably trying to save thier necks, methadone was born--a synthetic,non-plant based opiod that is about the cleanest,strongest and has the least side affects. About the most common side affect reported is---constipation. So eat your prunes.And no,Dolophine was not named after Adolph Hitler.It's been some months since I researched this but I believe I got my facts about 99% accurate.---Ronin

methadone is a wonderful drug, great for pain requires less dosing, It saved my life, I take it for severe migraines, have never used heroin. Methadone is a long acting opiate vs. oxycodone which only lasts 4 hours. Give methadone a try you will be pleasantly surprised, dont let the media and the bad rap about methadone stop you from trying it, methadone is a wonder drug that has the ability to dramatically change one's life.
