Today marks my 4th month sober from hard drugs! I’m doing well and planning to slowly cut down my methadone (it’s currently 40ml daily). Has anyone suggestions about it or share similar situations?

First off good job on making it 4 months. While I was never into opioids but rather the exaxt opposite coke I did take the liberty of doing some research for you. According to a study out of Canada that ill link below the highest rate of success for tapering from methadone seems to be in people who taper the dose by 1-3 percent once a month. Though the general guideline presented is no more than 5 percent and the taper lasting longer than 1 year for and the dosage lowering somewhere between every 2 weeks to once a month for sustainaned success. I hope this information helps and I wish you continued success.

Thank you so much! I havent check the app in a while and I’m still doing good! 8 months clean! I cut 2ml since then and doctor advice to do it slowly as well, I guess I won’t rush the process and keep it steady! Thank you for the time you took to check and the link. I hope your journey is going well too!
