Wrong about the methadone. He eventually stopped doing dope and got on methadone (for at least 20 years if I'm not mistaken), until he died. Cardiovascular issues are not the norm, but the exception with methadone and specifically unique to it due to its dextro enantiomer. No other opioid shares this potentially cardiotoxic property. Tilidine for example is the most prescribed fully synthetic opioid in Germany and absolutely nobody is suffering from cardiovascular problems.He was also doing heroin not fentanyl, bupe, or methadone and was also just an n of 1
Correlation is NOT causation. Schools need to finally start hammering this principle into people's heads.Codeine is a killer, Fredo Santana and other rappers have died young because of codeine cough syrup, look it up, he joined the 27 club unfortunately because of cardiovascular disease, he was heavy into'Lean'.
Honestly I am convinced codeine alone is fine unless taken in truly absurd doses and/or by someone with no tolerance. The problem with these rappers is they consumed INSANE amounts of codeine+PROMETHAZINE which in the amounts they consume leads to severe side effects.Codeine is a killer, Fredo Santana and other rappers have died young because of codeine cough syrup, look it up, he joined the 27 club unfortunately because of cardiovascular disease, he was heavy into'Lean'.
Thumbs up for that!Honestly I am convinced codeine alone is fine unless taken in truly absurd doses and/or by someone with no tolerance. The problem with these rappers is they consumed INSANE amounts of codeine+PROMETHAZINE which in the amounts they consume leads to severe side effects.
I mean I'm never hating, I'm a big fan of Juicewrld who died also due to Lean abuse. Acute promethazine toxicity caused him to have a lethal seizure+cardiac arrest (though having an insane amount of codeine/oxy in his system likely didn't help his seizure threshold), which is why he did not have much of a response to narcan even though plenty was administered. Promethazine is known to cause seizures in very high doses of long-term abuse. Drinking a pint of lean is not far off from popping 100s of MGs (or even 1g) of Benadryl so no wonder these rappers end up with all sorts of fucked up side effects and unfortunately, deaths.Hey he kept it real, don't be hatin'
Why start with ULDN later on? You'll have a much easier time cutting down your dose WHILE taking ULDN as it reduces your tolerance. This means you can decrease your dose much more rapidly without feeling uncomfortable. You'll also notice that you can go longer in between doses. Craving in general is much less pronounced in opioid users who also take ULDN.@Hexenstahl do you reckon that if I were to cut my usual codeine dose down to 150mg, and later started ULDN, it would be possible to get satisfying euphoria, antidepressant effects&painkilling long-term from some crazy low dose like 45-60mg? that would make my habit 4-5.3x cheaper than it is now, so I could easily be on opis everyday. Assuming the reduction of tolerance to about 30% still holds for low opi doses. I imagine % wise it might be less compared to what you outline in your ULDN guide thread.
Sorry, I am not being misogynistic, just stating a fact.
I'm poor and can't readily source it. The legitimate places I've found don't ship to Poland or will but at extortionate price. Which leaves sussy vendors that are still outside my range for a while anyway. Basically to get naltrexone at all I'd need to skip buying opis for a very long time which will suck real bad because without some kind of downer my sleep is extremely low quality ever since I moved here, so after longer than 2-3 days off I become more and more non-functional due to sleep deprivation. If I can't get codeine I usually resort to drinking the cheapest beer I can find.Why start with ULDN later on?

Just say yes to drugs, that ain't good, and yes his problems and others were caused by hugh amounts of codeine.Wrong about the methadone.

Yeah, Santana and a bunch of other ignorant rappers died of cardiovascular complications, so what? Did they also do other drugs? Did they eat a crapload of junk food? What was their general lifestyle? Were they on medications that could have caused dangerous interactions? It's interesting how nobody seems to ask these questions and immediately jumps to -> it was the evil opioids that caused it!
All the more shocking that even people in a drug forum jump on this bandwagon.
Prove it.his problems and others were caused by hugh amounts of codeine.
Um I've taken 32MG/day for four years eleven months 20 days and I cannot live without it or a maximum dose of methadone. I don't want to go down the methadone road again because I can't control myself with methadone, but I easily control myself with my current medications. I wake up, take 40MG Valium, 3200MG Gabapentin, 16MG Suboxone, wait 30 minutes and take another 16MG of Suboxone then put everything back in my safe under my bed because out of sight out of mind works for me. Then I run five miles on my treadmill and workout for an hour then play Path of Exile/Diablo 4/ Diablo 3/ Diablo 2 most of the day. I've been disabled just over five years because of severe anxiety, extreme insomnia and agoraphobia which started in my teens. Still, I'm doing way better than my last post many many years ago when I was abusing benadryl because I couldn't get into a sub doctor, (tried to kill myself a couple times, climbed the water tower at least 15 times and spent months in the looney bin so I could get suboxone and hide under a cover in the corner.) Then I got disability thanks to my psychiatrist and got into the best OBOT program within a hundred miles a couple months later. My doctor is the one of the most compassionate person I've ever met, like my stepfather who willed everything to me and my little brother after out mom passed from cancer a couple years ago. He's 70 though he looks like he's in his late 50s, I'm 39 and I have more grey hair than he does.To cut the long story short. Start Suboxone treatment ONLY if your life is in danger. For all other reasons (tolerance, pain & depression management...) don't do it. It's like getting a mosquito with the nuclear weapon. Way too strong and unpredictable. After a perfect period of 8-9 months side effects started to show?! Literally overnight. Same dose, same brand, same expire date... I'll probably never know why but that's not important anymore. After being between life and death for 3 months l finally managed to tapper down. Four weeks after l'm still weak, depressed and tired. Pain is back as well. Sometimes unbearable but I don't complain. I managed to get through this nightmare alive. Hopefully one day these symptoms will cease and I'll feel normal again? Please think twice before starting a Sub. therapy as plenty of side effects are not listed at all. Intentionally!
Sweets not being appealing isn't a bad side effect imo, sounds like it helped you get healthierUm I've taken 32MG/day for four years eleven months 20 days and I cannot live without it or a maximum dose of methadone.

Side effects: I feel like what I think normal feels like, bad side effects, I can't drink soda or eat anything with a lot of sugar anymore, it really fucked up my taste buds, it all tastes like dogshit so I switched to tea with 1/8 cup of sugar per gallon and gave up on sweets. I lost 90 pounds then started working out and gained 75 pounds of muscle.So yeah, overall Subs saved my life and there haven't been any other side effects. Sorry the drug did not help you, I know how hard detoxing from drugs with a long half-life is. 20 days of pure physical hell and years of mental hell that I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy. Hope you feel normal soon.
