"Just fuckin eat it".
Why? In that case, just fucking eat heroin, at high doses it's BA is actually about the same... But seriously, to dispell the many myths of oxycodone:
First off, IV oxycodone is 1.5-2x as potent as oral oxycodone(and it tends to be 2x more often than 1.5x), and, the half-life of IV oxycodone is EXACTLY THE SAME AS THE ORAL HALF-LIFE. So IV oxycodone is 1.5-2x as potent as oral, and lasts just as long. So they're is literally no advantage to oral oxycodone, when compared to IV(or even IM). Of course injecting is bad and blah blah, but if your already injecting H and dillies, IV oxy is literally superior in every way
Secondly(and this is related to the first) the oral BA of oxycodone is not "very high" as everyone claims. In reality, the oral BA is highly variable, ranging anywhere from 35-90%. The mean is somewhere between 50-70%, though it appears to be much closer to 50 than 70%.
And finally, oral is not better than intranasal. Despite what many have claimed, the oral and nasal BA's are about the same, both around 50%. However, intranasal hits much faster, with a tman of 10-20min, vs oral, which had a tmax of around 90 minutes.
So all in all, oral has no benefits, aside from simplicity. IV is much stronger, and with an identical half-life; intranasal is about the same, at worst, the BA might average a tiny bit lower, but no one would notice the slight difference, and it is compensated by the MUCH FASTEE onset. So technically, IV is the best,(though not exactly recommended!) with intranasal and oral being tied, although I think most would agree intranasal is superior.(Not me, I don't snort drugs)
Edit: Rybee I saw your other post, and thanks. And let me clarify I'm not being rude, it's just that they're us a lot of misinformation about oxycodone,(among other things) and I am trying to clear it up!!!
Finally someone else who gets it :D Back when I was shooting oxys, every second time I'd post on the subject I'd get half a dozen ''just eat them man, they have 90% oral BA, shooting oxy is useless, etc etc etc'' responses. Meanwhile I'd gone from eating 200mg to shooting 80mg, with a negligible decrease in duration.
Anyway, I'm not advocating people start IVing who don't already do so, just glad to see someone else who understands that IV oxy is significantly more efficient than oral
