Abstract

For a group of patients, methadone provides superior analgesia with minimal CNS effects and little tolerance. This author has personally had patients on the same dose of methadone for 15 years, and has returned doctors, nurses, policemen, and pharmacists back to full function on methadone. However, there are significant risks with the medication, and clinicians must be careful and cognizant of the potential life-threatening risks.
