Hi,
Welcome to health care magic,

It might be possible that you have your normal bacterial flora get disturbed as result of the methadone reduction programme.

This thing might cause your constipation occasionally.

you may go for some routine blood works and stool examination for routine microscopy,ova and cyst.

First you start having light food with high fiber diet like salads (cucumber,cabbage, carrots).

You may take laxatives or purgatives like syrup cremaffin plus 3TSF in night time to have a effortless bowel evacuation.

Drink excess of water and fruit juices.

Consult your physician if constipation remains persistent and for further advice.

Regards,
I find this answer helpful
