A relative was taking Oxycontin for about a year (arount 160 mgs a day). He started a methadone program last week and is taking 25 mg a day. How long before the OC is out of his system? And how long should he take the Methadone before it’s safe to detox from it? He was told it should be a short term treatment and is planning to only take it for a couple months. Any info on this, including the withfrawal from Methadone would be helpful!
