My doctor prescribed me 5mg methadone. It worked perfectly for 6 months. No side effects, no high, no RLS!
Then, RLS started coming back. My doctor said I was on half the dose most of his patients were on so he authorized me to take 7.5 to 10mg. I'm currently on 10mg.
I am really scared that I'm going to keep going up on my side, even though studies allegedly show that people treated with opioids for RLS generally don't build a tolerance.
If anyone is familiar with this, I'd be grateful to hear about your experience with opioids and tolerance or dose adjustments.
