First time trying an opiate...

Hey all, just found this site while trying to find info about percocet. I just found an old prescription from a surgery for oxy-acetaminophen 5-325. Without much thinking I popped one pill. Now I've never done anything besides weed and adderall, and I was hoping on some advice on what to expect? I took it about 20 mins ago, and I know at first it's a waiting game, but what comes after ? Also should I take more? I know this isn't a large dose but I was trying to play it safe my first time
 
I'm going to move this over to BDD.

Do not take more, the oxycodone will probably hit you within the next ten minutes. Expect euphoria, itchiness, nausea and possibly sedation (though oxycodone is known for being a more stimulating opioid).
 
5-10mgs is a good starting dose for oxycodone, definitely no more. Best wait and see what 5mgs does, if you don't feel much its safest not to redose and to just try 10mgs next time.. but as alb said do be careful, oxycodone is a strong opioid. If you are going to be consuming more than 2g APAP in one go or 4g in 24 hours you need to do a cold water extraction to remove it, but that doesn't matter at your current dose.

Opioids feel.. warm and euphoric, usually pretty itchy. Some are more sedating than others, as alb said oxy is one of the more stimulating ones for a lot of people. Don't mix them with any other CNS depressants such as benzos or alcohol and be careful. Enjoy :)
 
So you skipped codeine & hydrocodone & went straight to oxycodone, not by your choice since you found the oxy, so you did what most of us would have done. Its good to start low like you did & wait a while before adding anymore.
 
Don't be afraid to go to 10mg, it's what I would recommend unless you find 5mg particularly overwhelming. (which is very rare, yes in new users)

I done the same, skipped Codeine, DHC, Hydrocodone and started straight on the Oxy.

Im glad ive experienced them all now but also regretful in a sense that i ever discovered them.
 
5 mg wont have too much of an effect. You'll just feel content and lazy id imagine. Try smoking a little while on it that always made me enjoy it more

I started on Morphine for years....400mg/day...and worked my way down as I got older..
I started that before I even knew what an opiate..
or w/d was..but damn did I learn quick!..

now I can be with dhc and hydro and be content..
with oxy becoming a treat now and then....

OP as everybody says...5-10 mg..good starting dose...
though not so sedating for alot of us...

I also experimented with oxycodone first. I would recommend 10 mg for a first-timer, but if you're one who's very sensitive to opiates (and I've met those individuals who are), 5 mg could possibly get your rocks off.

It's a strange high, and nothing at all like weed or alcohol. It's what I would describe as being a very subtle high, a feeling that you might find difficult to pick up on at first.

I remember when I first took some oxycodone; I felt a little sleepy, perhaps a little more content, itchy, and I just didn't associate any of those things with being high on opiates. It wasn't until later that I understood, "oh ok, so this is the opiate high..."

It sounds dumb, but I guess what I'm trying to say is that opiates do not change one's perspective so radically and noticeably so as say, weed or alcohol, where you know for sure when you're "really stoned" or "really drunk."

until you hit higher doses. first few times is almost guaranteed yack city
 
When I first started doing percs.. I just felt like I was on a good dose of "fuckitall".. haha Good times.. 5-10mg is good for starters.. but the lower you dose the less your tolerance will be. Tolerance develops quickly so don't let that happen to you, just dose what you need and if your'e able to spread it out you can keep your tolerance at a reasonable level... It is an expensive habit just so you know.

Yeah that's what they say, but I never had that problem. I've never thrown up, and I've only ever felt like throwing up once, the one time I blew an entire OC 80 in one go.

I went outside by the bushes, felt it rise up in my chest and in my throat, opened my mouth to puke... and burped. Then I felt immediately better after that, and that was it. lol

I have known others to puke, though, so I do understand that it's a common occurrence. Just never affected me that way, I suppose.
 
i don't think taking one pill will do anything, you definitely won't be nodding. 10 mg is a pretty good dose to feel the effects, but if you really want to experience a nod, i'd probably take 15 mg. you can also take gravol to potentiate the effects of percocets and benedryl to decrease the itchiness.
 
For me, 10-15mg def worked well if it's all I took. If i were drinking then maybe just 10mg, if smoking alot of herb then about the same. But if just dosing the Hydro 15mg does sound perfect for a new comer....wish I could go back!

Kudi! don't drink on opiates! shakes her head...herb is ok though, you know..for medical reasons, where it's legal and stuff. ;)

Op said 5/325...NEVER mix alcohol w/apap, either.

Agreed!

In addition to being bad for your health, even a small amount of alcohol tends to ruin the opiate high by "dirtying" it up or overpowering its subtle nuances. A couple of tokes of the herb is all good, it can make the opiates feel even stronger. :)
 
I don't take hyrdocodone anymore, haven't had that for awhile! I did this in the past, but i'm over the mixing now ya'll. sorry to scare, I knew my limits!

sorry kudi...felt like it had to be said..maybe it was the thc in me..at the time...;)

Alcohol is nothing but poison as far as I'm concerned, anyway...
But esp. when added to opiates or apap or benzos.....I could keep going but I'll just type...etc, instead...
