I've been searching for an answer on this forum for a few "high" instances now and haven't been able to find a clear answer. The closest I got was a thread with a few posts which has been closed. I apologize if this has been answered already, but I can't seem to find it...

I often will go out and have some drinks with friends... which more often lately, has turned into using coke as well. I am always faced with either using the bag until it's gone, or taking something to "come down". I am hesitant to take something (like a perch... which is what I have) because I'm not educated on the consequences/efficacy/safety of the combo.

Can someone please chime in and give me some info?

I know that it probably isn't considered safe, as doing coke, drinking alcohol and taking anything to come down would be "safe", but what exactly would this combo mean? Many people say "this" isn't safe, or "that" isn't safe, yet, you hear of people doing "this" or "that" all of the time and swearing by it as a trusted means of coping with come down/etc etc...

Thank you in advance for any intelligent (or non-intelligent) replies :-)
 
Hi prudie

A Percocet will probably make you feel a lot worse. For one, it'll hit you harder because of the alcohol, and when I first did that, I threw up so fast I almost didn't get the car window down in time. I have no experience mixing coke and oxy, so I can't say. The few times I did coke I just kept drinking beer and it brought me down. See if you can eat. I'm surprised no one has jumped on this.

I do oxy and dextroamphetamine together now and I feel fine, but ache the next day. It doesn't bring me down. Xanax does.

Good luck honey. Let me know how it turns out.
 
I always used percocet to come down off of cocaine any opiate really will do but if you drank with the coke then for one your going to damage your liver because of the Tylenol and oxycodone in the percocet mixed with booze and secondly you could die because mixing booze and opiates is asking for trouble. But if you have done some coke and need to sleep an opiate will completely take away any "fiending" you may feel letting you go to sleep. If you have drank a whole lot then I would recommend for harm reductions sake not to add opiates to the mix. But opiates are known for their ability to help a cocaine comedown tremendously.
Be safe you know the dangers its your body so its up to you whether you want to take the risk.

You should, at least, avoid acetaminophen when drinking. Oxycodone after a cocaine high, however, can be really nice. I always seek out opiates after a speed binge... they're the only class of drugs that seem to wring an all-over feeling of well being out of feeling strung out. Benzos might help, but the best you can hope for is a quick knockout.
 
I don't know why I'm just seeing this now... I didn't get the email that there were replies to this... Although I did for other inquiries... Weird... Anyway, I found it now. Thank u to who have answered thus far!

so... I just, before reading this and doing a search (yet again... Which prompted my thread starter in the beginning) drank 3 gl of wine and a beer... Did maybe 3 small bumps and took a 10mg perc to come down. It's a Monday night and I needed to come down so that I could end the train and get to sleep for work.

A little more background:

I have been going thru hell the last few weeks due to the fact I found out my boyfriend of 5 yrs has cheated. I also am in the midst of starting a biz partnership that is scaring the shit out of me (taking a risk and seeing if it works is better than not taking the risk and never knowing)... So there's much personal turmoil going on.... Has all prompted me to self-medicate and party way too much. I was with the ex hashing out... No... Beating a dead horse most of the night. Met for a drink around 9, had the 3 gl and was home by 11. Immediately did the bumps over the course of 1.5 hrs, during which I had a beer. Def not drunk, but alcohol in the system... Plus the mini-bumps. Realized "Jeezus Jennifer, it's Monday, well now, Tues morning 1am and I need to ABSOLUTELY NOT, stay up all night... Hence the Percocet.

is this a terrible situation in the making? I'm somewhat educated on this, however, I feel like I need other, more experienced opinions on the matter.

any additional input given the story?

i love this place because everyone is friendly enough to give honest and educated answers.... Thank u!

IME opiates and/or benzos are great for a comedown.Having a comedown was the only way I could do caine.If it's helping you and you aren't experiencing any difficulties I think you'll be fine.A single 10mg perc isn't that much opiate really and if it's a perc 10/325 thats not a lot of APAP either.The main issue I see is the whole self medicating by getting fucked up thing.I did that and it has a tendancy to spiral out of control.
 
opiates tend to give some people energy . Is that the case with you? If so , even a small dose that might take the edge off could still leave you awake...and you need to sleep it off. People already told you about the APAP alcohol stuff so I'll move on to =
maybe a benzo? a ONCE IN A WHILE benzo? Last thing you wanna get hooked on is benzos but if you took a low dose of something it could totally help your come down but if you don't want to have the over sedation/amplification of the alcohol you drank you should wait a bit, flush your system with your water, piss a few good times and THEN take the benzo.
 
I've used opiates to come off coke/booz binges , also ive used soma (TAKE ONE 350mg PILL IF YOU DECIDE TO TRY THAT)
...that is not me giving advice, that is me telling you what worked for me and you can go from there. If I had access to benzos at the time id have taken em
