Yes they will but methadone withdrawals will not be bad until three days after you last dose. Also if your methadone clinic tests you and they find tramadol in your system it might cause problems. So if you could just wait to go to your clinic i would but if you are really sick 100 or 150 milligrams of tramadol will definitely take away the sick feeling.
