My boyfriend and myself want to get off heroin and someone told us that getting on methadone is the best way. My question is can methadone make you high?

Well, it blocks pain, so if you need pain relief in a way that would feel like a high to you. But it’s not the same sort of high.

To get high from methadone, you’d need really high doses of it, and you won’t be prescribed those. Taking those high doses is almost as bad as heroin, and could be toxic to your body.

No, it doesn’t make you high. One of the reasons it works so well is that it blocks the euphoric affect you get with heroin, so you don’t get the high, but you do get the fix your body needs.

It has a kind of sedative effect, so you may feel a bit drowsy, but it’s not the same as a heroin high, no.
