Stimulants concerta 54 mg no oros?

[Skorpio]

I just aquired a number of 54 mg concertas, for a value price as nobody wants the fricking things due to the oros extended release system. After eating the coating of one (11% of thr methylphenidate) I split it in two to begin my task of pill surgery. Lo and behold there is simply an inner layer of plastic and a homogeneous white layer.

Do concerta 54s have oros and I destroyed it, or are t hey more similar to vanilla xr pills?

Concerta has OROS, but it's essentially defeated by just smashing the pill to bits.

Is it a mallencrodt concerta? These flattish pills are not oros, and are much easier to abuse. They have a M in a box by the mg.

I can't remember 100% but one side is the time release the other is methyl you should look it up

I used to take a wet paper towel or run the concertas under warm water and take off the outer coating.

Then take off the white coating with a wet paper towel rubbing it hard in between my fingers.

the XR formulation is the brownish greyish stuff on one side and the ritalin the white half.

Take a shark knife and cut an indentation in the middle. And snap it in half. Now you have almost IR ritalin. Though it will seem to have this invisible clear plastic coating on it so and it's so compressed it is very difficult to crush. And if taken orally it'll work slower but longer than a regular IR.

the best way to snort it is just by grinding it.

I have the generic Methylphenidate hydrochloride extended-release 54 mg.
They are redish brown outside and when I take chip off the outer coating I am left with just a mass off greyish brown with little white specks. Not oros, no different sections, just one homogenous mix. Am I doing this wrong?

They arn't the Alza pills. I'de like to be able to snort or plug this or atleast by pass the extended release orally.
