A member asked:
Conscious sedation at the dentist while on methadone, is this okay?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: If you are taking methadone, you are having drug dependency problems. You should limit you exposure to most drugs. Unless there is a reason, you should not be using sedation medication. Inform your dentist of your drug problems.
