What can i do if my boyfriend is on methadone is he going to stay this way forever?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Methadone: It depends on why your boyfriend is on methadone. If it is used for narcotic addiction, he might have to take it for long time. If it's used for pain treatment, he can go off it under physician supervision when his pain is improved.
