Substance misuse and cardiology

What should I do? Lofexidine prolongs the QT interval. A client wants to use it to "smooth the transition from methadone to subutex". Methadone prolongs the QT as well. Is it safe to combine the two? Where will I find the answer to this one? I think I might try the lofexidine manufacturers in the first instance.
