I drink "Rock Star" energy drinks and I take methadone maintenance. Is it ok?
Is methadone and energy drinks ok together?

Newboyblu;
The only problem I can see would be the fact that methadone is very bad for your teeth--add energy drinks(which contain taurine), and you're going to end up with rotting teeth. In addition, Taurine increases your blood pressure, heart rate and anxiety level. It is a myth that the two combined will increase the effects of the 'Done--it doesn't. Hope that answers your ? Julie
