Should be 1 to 1: if you were put on the proper one to one dose of oxycontin to methadone.if you were placed on the correct one to one dose of oxycontin to methadone. You can pretty much interchange between any opioids and not have any withdrawal symptoms if you were put on the correct dose. To properly answer your question, we need to know how much oxycontin you are on.
