Say if your using oxycodone how much does it take to get high? And how much does it take to over dose
 
Depends on your age, size, sex, metabolism, genetics, height, weight, route of administration and tolerance.

There are recommended doses, which are what doctors are here for. Perhaps getting high on a new drug is not the safe way to do it? Maybe one should try a low dose first to make sure any adverse effects do not happen.
 
That....and starting on oxycodone would be like learning to drive in a NASCAR.....talk to your doctor. try 5mg hydro if you are insistant. You can always take more but you cant take back.
 
ok. the line between being high and overdosing gets smaller and smaller as you get deeper into addiction and your tolerance rises.

start with 5mg oxy, you won't OD. as said, you can take more but not less. i guess drivinthattrain means 5mg hydrocodone, i don't know what that would do as i started on heroin.

i'm a heroin addict and 40mg oxy does nothing to me, but could be dangerous for an opiate naive person. should be more concerned with addiction, in the end it's not worth the risk.
 
What are the effects of 5mg of "oxy" for a first timer? And how much would it take to over dose? Plus I'm a strong willed person, even if I feel like hell because of addiction I'd rather go through hell than make a mistake and OD
 
A lot of drug addicts are strong willed people. It's just that, their allegiance and strong will goes toward getting the drug and no longer getting off the drug as their morals change from repeated use.

The first time I used any opiate it was 5mg oxycontin, I had few side effects and had a good time. I was a 5'10, 150lb male.

Ok, what was the experience like and how much more would it take to be dangerous?

Uhm. I was relaxed and had a warm body high for a few hours.

As for the second part of your question, let me ask myself the same thing. "Hmm Renz, how much oxy can you take to get high, but not die?!"

Answer: I have no opiate tolerance. I have no clue. Chances are, I could probably take a lot, puke my guts out and not die unless I mixed it with another CNS depressant.

So 5mg is far from a fatal dose (for me)? And a good amount to get the high feeling? Also what are the chances of my breathing stopping at that dose? And is 5mg the amount doctors advise anyway?
 
5mg is far from a fatal dose, yes. I took 20mg the first time I took oxy and got sick & threw up, so nothing dangerous just not very pleasant (I didn't have much opiate experience - only a fair amount of codeine & hydrocodone). Then I tried 10mg and that was really, really nice for me. Warm buzzy feeling and happiness/bit of a nod. You're considerably taller and heavier than me though. But if I were you I'd start with 5mg like what people said and work your way up SLOWLY if you feel it's not enough.
You will NOT OD at 5mg provided you don't take any other CNS depressants with it (alcohol, benzos, other opiates...).
As for what doctors advise, that sort of depends on the patient so that's a bit of a vague question...all I know is when my grandfather was in his terminal stages of lung canccer he took 10mg twice a day, but I dunno.
Anyway hope that helps. Be safe and think about whether it's really worth getting into, oxy is VERY addictive.

How do you even get ahold of it? A prescription? What would I have to say to the doc to get him to get me oxycodone? AND I have a heart murmur which a lot of people have, is that a risk?

Bluelight isn't around to help you find drugs.
 
Karma, I suggest you do a lot more of your own research on opiates, dosages, the effects, addiction potential etc. before you take anything. IMO, the best way for you to be safe whilst taking opiates is to know what you should do, what you shouldn't do, what will kill you, and the warning signs to look out for.

Also check out the BLUA.
 
the first time i took an opiate it was a 10mg hydrocodone "vicoden ES" and it felt like you were out in the cold and came in wrapped up in a warm blanket by the fire it was one of my favorite experiences in my life but mind you i was 8 years old and 60lbs i'd take 10mg of oxy
 
Its a hard road. I love opiates. I did mean hydrocodone. but 5mg oxy works. But I wouldent go this route. People will tell you, the withdrawals suck, and you never stop having the desire for them. Its unlike anything ive done. They feel great. But its a long hard road, most people get on them for pain then gett hooked.
I am only on tramadol now.
But even after years, I would pop a 30mg oxy in a second if I had one in front of me, and I am very strong willed.
usually if you take a dose thats a little too strong for you, you get "sea sick"
If you OD, call 911. We carry a drug on the ambulance called Narcan, it immediatly blocks opiate recptors, saves lives, but you will feel so sick I cant even describe it.

I only want to use it occasionally, I will research all about opiates before taking them, I just want to experience that warm feeling
