I had gone to my doctor about 5 months ago when I first wanted to stop taking Methadone. I was trying to get on a Suboxone program but insurance did not cover it. So I asked him if I should take any of the over the counter stuff, either the stuff that makes your drug screening clean or the Body Detox stuff they sell at Walmart, Walgreens any of those stores. He told me that the stuff you drink to pass a drug test only "masks" the chemicals in your body, it does not get rid of them. He also said that the detox stuff they sell at the regular stores is only made to get rid of fat and waste in your body from food and drinks. So, I never ended up trying it because I did not want to waste the money. I know that for me, this week has been the hardest as far as anxiety, depression and fatigue. I stopped taking Methadone 15 days ago. Unfortunately I think these are symptoms that we may have to deal with for a while. You might want to try calling your doctor on Monday and asking their opinion though, maybe there is something that might help. I do not know if they have something different for the chemicals in marijuana that may help you.
