Sorta...: of course it depends somewhat on the amount of methadone. If you didn't tell them what medications you are taking they won't make correct decisions. The lowest dose of methadone is less than frequently taking 2 mg dilaudid, BUT average methadone maintence for narcotic addiction is much MORE than 2 mg dilaudid.
