How can I change a Hysingla into an instant release easily? I'm 65 and ran out of my Instant Release pills 1 week early, and desperately need to do this to get out of pain so that I can function, i.e., take a shower. FWIW, I've been on pain pills for 15 years and have a high tolerance.
THINGS I'VE TRIED:
1. Dissolving whole pill in Coca-Cola for 24 hours. Results: It was not dissolved, but was a big gummy blob which I swallowed along with the coke. It didn't help or work.
2. Cut up pill into 16 pieces with a pill cutter. It seemed to work a little, but not much.
3. Sledge hammer. Result: Couldn't even crack it.
PROBLEMS I'VE HAD:
1. Removing coating. The pill is hard to hold on to, even with needle nose pliers. It's also too slippery to hold and scrape with a pocket knife.
2. Crushing into fine powder. I haven't found anything in my home capable of doing that.
NOTE: I'm in too much pain to go out and buy something. So I'm hoping someone here can recommend something that I can use that I already have in my home to defeat the abuse deterrent. I'd also prefer to take it by mouth and not heat it, if that is possible to get instant relief.
Thanks for your help in advance.
