Best not to: I'm not aware of any interaction with your meds but impure meth with unusual cutting compounds can be harmful to hearts. Best to see a doctor if you're wanting advice re methadone as should be medically supervised if you are eligible for it

Methamphetamine: If this is what you mean by meth, it's very dangerous.

Do you want to die?: Terrible idea. Please forgive my frankness. You're smart enough to have made at least an effort at recovery. You're smart enough to have found HealthTap and framed a question. I bet that somebody loves you. I'm a pathologist. The stories are true. Returning to meth will ruin your heart; otherwise meth heads do rip off their flesh as they are dying of it. Spare yourself and choose a better life.
