Codeine Tolerance Question

[pk.]

I have recently discovered the cold water extraction method for getting codeine from painkillers. This is the third day of doing it... I started on 60mg, it was OK, yesterday I tried 75mg and it was awesome, today I took 90mg and only got a decent effect from it. I was just wanting to know if I did it again later today, at a slightly higher dosage, whether I will get any substantial effects, or will doing it twice in one day just be a waste of time?

Try dosing 120-150mg if you felt awesome effects from 75 the other day and diminished from 90mg today...tolerance...she is a bitch...

imo just wait a couple days. Makes it more economic, as well as avoiding any possible WD effects (yes, I know probably not anything significant after 3 days, but its the little things like staggering doses that help keep it at bay )

Redosing codeine doesn't work well at all for a lot of people, as you exhaust one of the enzymes needed to metabolise it to morphine (there are other active metabolites likely responsible for most of codeine's effects, but morphine plays a part for most people) so twice in one day can be a bit of a waste, yeah. YMMV though, it works for some people!

Tolerance is going to be an issue for sure if you keep taking it daily, and I'd be concerned about it becoming a habit > addiction.. always best to take breaks

^Yeah I was concerned about the double dosing thing.. and the habit thing also haha.

I ended up taking another 105mg, didn't get the euphoria, but i'm pleasantly more relaxed =)

thanks for the timely advice dudes!

No problem!

As you've redosed and it's done now (thanks for letting us know how it went ) I'm going to close this, but feel free to shoot me a pm if you have any queries
