Yes, that is a 40mg Methodone pill, and it is described as a "dispersible disket," per the drug identification website I use at work.

Yeah, it's also called a "wafer"....40 mg. methadone, scored that way so you can take in 10mg. increments...or to make it easier to swallow. To the liquid methadone comment, the for profit drug dealers at the methadone clinics give out liquid...or make you take it right there. Re: Drug dealers at the clinics...how retarded is this....some junkie goes in there, gets his daily allowance jacked up to the highest level possible, sometimes as much as 140-150 mg...not only a day..but at ONE TIME....and they do this so after a period of time they'll be allowed take homes....then they'll be able to take the 40-50 mg. that they NEED...and sell the rest. Sure....all you junkies will respond that only a few do this and they ruin it for the people who NEED it....but I've been to the methadone clinic..I've talked to and met a few hundred "patients"...and to a man, they ALL have this in mind as they get "upped"....
Anyways, yeah, that's a wafer....quick, take it all at once, I'm sure You NEEEEEED that much, just like all the other junkies out there. Because it's prescribed doesn't make you any less a junkie than the pin pricks out on the street making love to their heroin every day.

If you were not prescribed it, you shouldn't be eating it.
I thought Methadone came as a liquid you poured in a glass of juice.
Don't eat anything that you don't know for sure what it is.
