You do not need to dissolve the pill at all. Back in 2009 to summer of 2011, I was on a regimen of 200mg C-Contins twice a day with a Percodan or two a day for breakthrough pain. You can just remove the coating and smash the pill, it's easier with the 150,100 and..50's.. (lol, those are surely for poor children who get leukaemia, like HydromorphContins 3mg, 4.5mg, 6mg). Anyway what I would do with the the 200's which are rectangle and red with a score line, i'd just crush them in a mortar after removing the coating. Most of the time though, I was rarely buying pharms from other people then and had just what was fine with me. I actually was content with C-Contins 200 twice a day with a couple Percodans and weed. You can't shoot codeine even if you reduce it to powder from Codeine Contins or just regular pure codeine pills or Empracets.
All this talk of codeine contins remind me of the times my then doc (and I was still young enough to be on my mom's work insurance then, which thankfully didn't discard one's children because they are still in college past 25 year old) who had pretty much fixed my hellish days of pain. The neurologist scripted me Lyrica and clonazepam for the nerve pain and the jaw specialist the c-contins and percodans. I never thought I would one day shoot my DOC everyday (Dilaudid/HMC's) a year later, I had IV'd well filtered Statex, MS IR's, Dilaudid (the one time I got a dozen brand 8mg triangles...dear mother of god) and HMC's. It was a once a month weekend bender and that would be it, didn't make the C-Contin + Percodan regimen useless. But I'm one of those people who really process codeine well, I enjoy(ed, fucking bupe, makes me unable to know what my tolerance will be when I get to 2mg and under and go to the pain clinic, which is the door next to the ORT clinic) eating 10 Codeine 30mg pills/Empracet 30/300 pills or 5-6 Hycodan tablets as much as shooting up 4 goddamn 5mg IR morphine pills which demanded a real good micron/SteriFilt...unfortunately MS IR's are more common than Statex's. I remember when all I could get for a while after my jaw specialist/dental surgeon's retired out of the blue was 5mg MS IR's..thankfully they were stupid cheap, but a few times I didn't have sterifilts or my old microns (I only had 10 and I stretched em as long as possible) and shot 5x5 MS IR's with the filter in the Securicup package, which is good for heroin, dilaudid, statex, hm contins, but not much else, I can't believe that even filtering them 4 times they were still that non-transparent green goo. The piss yellow D4 syringes filled were fully transparent, thankfully, using those filters.
Bit of rambling...I got bronchitis and am using my Symbicort inhaler like crazy. I was almost looking up to getting bronchitis in the past cos (not pneumonia though, those times I was scared for my life, thankfully some cefzil, tylenol for fever saved my ass 3 times in the last 6 years... the only good thing tylenol is good for) cos I would always get Hycodan syrup/tablets added to the antibiotic, the antihistamine and the Prednisolone regimen twice out of three. I would get the Hycodan tablets from my GP just for the novelty of it even if more expensive, the best hydrocodone pill in north america...well, those ZoHydros do not seem like they are catching much at all in the US, but they seem like the ideal thing to me, would work better orally than HydromorphContins which are only worth it at 24 and 30mg. Had no tolerance at all and eating a 6mg gave me a transient feel good feeling for 30 minutes, those things are supposed to last 12 hours...only one time I ate a 24 or a 30, I forget, but all that to say hydrocodone orally > hydromorphone PO. Same for codeine in fact...300mg of codeine IR is just amazing (for me) and lasts a good 5 hours. But yeah, I got some penicillin and atarax for the damn secretions, but no hydrocodone or codeine...and even if I did, they would do nothing, motherfuckin' bupe, at least with methadone at the dose I was taking, I could skip my morning dose here and there and have some forbidden pleasures again, with bupe, nothing goes through at all.
