I'm on 20mg Adderall right now, would I be o.k. if I took about 25 MG of vicodin as well? Just a little "legal speedball"? Is it really that bad for you?>
 
I think the only time a speedball can be dangerous, is when you're shooting it, or when you're dealing with incredibly high doses.
 
I always found that combination to be quite pleasant, for the daytime. Like, just before work or something. I'd take the adderall first..then the Vic's later (not to come down or anything, since hydrocodone always gave me superenergy)..

Just stay away from drinking alcohol with this combination. It's purely subjective, and I know people who loved adding drinks - but I personally encountered nothing but badness from adding drinks..

Badness...

Ridiculous.

While the particular combo and dosage that OP mentioned does not present a significant risk, to say that a speedball can only be dangerous when injected or at "incredibly high doses" is just dead wrong, and completely goes against the idea of harm reduction.

One of the biggest problems which result from "speedballs" is that the stimulant can often mask the effects of the opioid, and then the user ends up taking more of the opioid then he normally would. Then when the stimulant wears off, the user can end up in OD territory.

In a scenario like this, it really doesn't matter if you shoot, snort, eat, plug, or any other route of admin. As I said, the danger is usually the result of the person not realizing how high they are on opioids, because the stimulant has made them more alert then they normally would be. -DG

So if I am a virgin to the stimulant, just keep my opiate dosages around the same as I normally would w/o adding the stims and I will less likely OD on the opiate via respiratory depression?
 
I've never mixed adderall with pain killers but I've mixed blow with them and it was amazing. It's not very safe but as long as you don't do it in large amounts, and in your case they're not large amounts, you should be fine. I once took adderall while withdrawing from pain killers and ended up having a panic/anxiety attack and I thought I was having a heart attack.
 
everything is everything... I have done Heroin, adderall, booze, and even promethezine syrup with codiene all within one evening.
Just be careful!
 
Addys

i get 6030mg addysA month= that i cant even take due tomy anxiety issues so i just stockpile them and trade them to my bros for things i like.
 
Well your pretty much combining a downer with an upper .

It should be intresting .

I've never tried it myself but I have many friends who love their speedballs and some are starting to love it to much (dependencey) and do it everyday . I look at them
and realize how much they have changed physically and mentally over the course of 6 months . They have lost so much weight and probably done some serious damage to their brains .


So ya try it . I'm sure if you do it once , your brain will be able to recooperate.

Just don't make it a habit buddy
 
I've been taking Dexedrine and Vicodin for the past 5 years. For example I will take Dex and 2 hours later take a V, another few hours will pass and I will take a Dex again followed by a V a few hours after that. All in the 5-10 mg range for both on each dose. I have been doing this for a long time and I know it can't be a good thing but I guess I'm still OK. Aside from a few tics here and there lol once in a while.
 
i just tried it tonight I gotta exercise it out by running a lot. !!! (not drug testing related...)
 
Yeah, if you keep the dosages moderate, you should be okay. I'm on MMT now, but when I was shooting dope I would love the feeling of throwing in a nice amount of quality blow into the shot. Didn't shoot speedballs too often, but when I did boy was it a treat. *drooool*
 
I've done that combo a handful of times. It's perfectly fine to do as long as you don't overdo either of the substances. In other words, use common sense. I'd say take the adderall first and enjoy it on its own for a bit. Then, when you start to get that 'headache' or any other feelings that WILL come with uppers then pop the opiates. (and perhaps another SMALL dose of adderall to keep that feeling going). It'll smooth out the ride a bit while not making it TOO much of a downer experience, which is great but I'd think the point of a speedball is that you can enjoy both worlds-the up and the down.
 
I have quick question... I have been taking Vicodin for several years (5 yrs. at least), around 30 to 40mg at a time, two or three times a day. I am now off the Vicodin completely (as of 4 weeks ago). Just this week my doc diagonsed me with ADD, and perscribed 10mg adderall, twice a day (IR). The first day I took it, it was great! A little "speedy", but my focus was awesome! On day two, when I took the 10mg, nothing! Then the second dose, nothing! Then on day three, absolutely nothing! I have take 4 - 10mg Adderall at a time and "barely" feel it. Surely I do not have a tolerance to stimulants that fast! (within a day or two). Could it be that I have taken so much vicodin over the years that there is an automatic tolerance to anything?? Ask my doc about it and he said that 10mg is a starter dose and to stick with it a couple of weeks and see how it goes..... but if it is not gonna help, why take it?? Any help or anyone that has experience this, please let me know what I can do to make the Adderall work. I have read about the antacids, and that does not help. Was wondering if the magnesium (sp?) therapy for tolerance would help me. Maybe I just need to do a full body cleanse for 10 days?? IDK, but any comments would be greatly apperciated!
 
i have a very similar problem. I was a heavy heavy drug abuser for years (heroin and painkillers mostly) and ever since I can take way more substances then anyone I know and barely feel them or appear intoxicated. I actually wrote a post about it trying to get answers as to why I can take such huge amounts of most any substance and not feel the effects, even without tolerance
 
I'm glad i happened upon this thread I am speedballing on Adderall and Oxy right now (75mg of Addy and 25mg Oxy). This is a moderate dose for me. In the past (in the midst of manic episodes) I use to take as much as 200mg of Adderall and 60mg of Oxy at a time (well it was actually 400mg of Adderall XR so the amphetamines always lasted longer than the opiates).
 
Yes, it would probably feel great if you took some Vicodin. So long as you take more Vic than Adderall, that way you're not speeding too much and you can feel opiated.
