Opioids Dihydrocodeine dosage

[cletusSamboy]

I've got 180mg of dhc left but wanna know if that dose poses health risks for an opiate naive user? Few weeks ago I tried 150mg and felt fine until about 8 hours later when strong drowsiness and moderate breathing depression kicked in and few times had to manually breath. So will 180mg be too much? I don't want to waste my last pills with low doses

I feel like I'm misunderstanding your question. You experience respiratory depression at 150mg, but you're unsure if 180mg would be too much? Why did the respiratory depression symptoms occur at T+08:00?

It was moderate depression but noticeable just asking if a little extra this time could mean fatal respiratory depression. Im guessing probably not.

DHC seems weird in that the nausea/drowsiness/slowed breathing doesn't begin for hours after positive effects have worn off
