Opioids Codeine question

[Inc3pti0n]

Hi all.

I take 30mg codeine tablets only no paracetamol ,. X8 30mg at once which I believe here in the UK is the max dose. I've wondered that once you hit the max recommended dose when you can then re dose to gain the same initial feeling when you have your first dose, euphoric.

I'm asking for guidance rather than just trying and being a waste for worse

No you will not get the same rush. Would be best to save them for the next day. You would just be continuing your high.

So you get euphoria from 30 mgs? That's great as it means you have a low tolerance. You can technically dose codeine every 4 to 6 hours and for a short time you will be able to feel the 30 mg doses. But if you keep it up and dose like that every day you are eventually going to need more. Tolerance will build and you won't feel high on 30 anymore.

When I first started taking codeine I had no tolerance but 30 didn't do me. I needed 60 to actually get high. When I quit taking it for good I was taking 180-240 mgs per day. Took me about 2 years to reach that tolerance though. And i was getting the 60 mg pills ( called T-4's ) in the US. Plust they had acetimonephen. Didn't do myself any favors I tell ya.

Keep your doses low and don't take it every day. And be glad codeine is all you are on.

Hey thanks for the reply. Sorry for the confusion in my post, no it takes the same 180-240mg to get a high for me.
I use to be on tramadol 50 and would take like 15 a day plus the 8 30mg codeine. But I've taken a big break from opiates until now I use occasionally.

Thanks buddy I wouldn't have imagined so but wanted to hear the view of the community.

Don't exceed 400mg of tramadol a day, as it can cause convulsions (bad ones). I get 120mg a day of dihydrocodeine prescribed, sometimes up to 240mg, (8 x 30mg tablets), if phantom limb pain or serious back pain happens (from a lifetime of just using right arm for anything strenuous).
One thing people have not mentioned is, if you take over 300mg codeine/200mg dihydrocodeine a day, it doesn't take long until you get the sort of constipation that seems like the sort of thing the old testament god would use to smite people (like 2 weeks without a shit, then when you do, it's almost an odds on bet that a load of blood comes out with it, due to impacted faeces ripping the colon walls, or stretching sphincter). Before you get to that stage, faecal softeners are your friend (laxatives on their own, aren't, as trying to move impacted masses cause gut spasms that hurt like fuck...).
Also, try to maintain a healthy, high fibre diet, to help things along!!

I'm on a hydromorph script and deal with constipation. Probiotics work well. If it's really bad I take a stool softener (docusate sodium) and a senokot. Sometimes it takes 2 days of taking them but when they work they work.

If you like Japanese food miso soup is full of Probiotics and I add bok choy or chard.

I just mean the satisfaction/how IV truly feels different. stacking the peaks. I know from experience neither smoking (im sure if i dabbed enough or something), continuously redosing 20-50mg will not do anything discernible, really.


But, plugging (had to sry) mda+mdma while i laid down, shooting some in few minutes before I became useless. Always take that into account when anything weird is involved, lol.
MDA IV for me always heavily increases the hallucinations and this was no different. It felt closer to IV for 2-3hrs than it did plugging -3hrs.
3 and 4 MMC are VERY satisfying shots, too, mcflurry.. surprisingly less diminishing returns than meth. The comedown/rebound is worse for me with both than it is methamp, though. I dose about the same zmount o 3mmc as methamp, which is more of a "regular dose" than the latter takes for the cough

Fuck, I wish my tolerance was like that when I took it. I was taking 3x30 pill packets of 500mg ibuprofen and 12.8mg codeine a day, so 45,000mg ibuprofen, and 1,152mg of codeine.

Yes, I'm well aware codeine has a ceiling effect. I think I broke it.

When I was in rehab for meth in 2017, people there asked me why I went on suboxone for codeine. I was taking heroin occasionally too, but it was mainly codeine. I explained how high it got me, they said it didn't get them high. At the time I did not know that codeine doesn't work for some people. But the addiction medicine specialist when I told him I was taking 90 pills had a freak out about the amount of ibuprofen I was eating, because even though I'd been told when I was 17 that it was really dangerous, that apparently dropped out of my brain. Plus, being homeless meant CWE wasn't an option.

I have had tests done to check for any permanent damage. From all up around 3 years of almost daily codeine consumption to that level, I did not have one single negative health outcome.

I consider myself extremely lucky.

I ended up with a stomach ulcer and almost bleed to death. Lots of other stomach issues as well but I needed a blood transfusion.
