codeine potentiate?

This is why I say codeine should not be an opiate of choice for anyone but beginners and W/D sufferers.

Shame it's the only opiate available OTC here in the UK :(

Also, it seems everyone has different experiences with potentiation. I've tried alcohol (glass of red wine), various antihistamines, GFJ and OJ. Alcohol is the only one which had any noticeable effect, though it wasn't much. My chosen method for taking codeine is to take a dose which I am certain will get me high (even if I go a bit over the top) on an empty stomach.

That being said, I went a bit over the top last night (took somewhere between 500-518mg, whereas 460mg is probably enough for me), and had a pretty bad time. Full body itches which 2 antihistamines wouldn't cure, and that "oh shit... something is really not right... I need help" feeling. So take the dosing tip with a pinch of salt. Safety first!

Codeine is losing its magic for me, CWEing 60 pills for a 3/4 hour high is a bit of a ballache. It would be nice if there was a better opiate available OTC.
