Tagamet to potentiante percs fine without the tums??

[Needtagamentadvice]

Is taking tums after Tagamet and before Percocet vital to enhance it?

Also how much Tagamet should I be taking

Not sure if I'm not doing it right or whatever but this method totally seems hit or miss, as in I feel half the time I do it nothing works at all

The Tums don't really potentiate, what they do is induce the stomach to empty contents into the small intestine faster which leads to a quicker buzz. Tagamet slows down the liver's metabolism of opioids. It won't really increase the buzz (both percocet and hydrocodone have high oral bioavailability) but will make the buzz last a bit longer. I typically take 600 mg Tagamet with my usual dose of Vicodin. Some people use grapefruit juice instead of Tagamet but this has a lot of acid which actually slows down stomach emptying so it is less effective at increasing the buzz than Tagamet.

I tried this yesterday and didn't feel anything, nothing helping my pain and nothing else
