Constipation

take oxypowder with your oxycontin

but seriously oxypowder will work no matter what and has no side effects.
 
hey... i dont do opiates, however i had pain meds when i had a surgery and i know the hell you're talking about. i also have irritable bowels so it happens to me regardless... everyone is suggesting meds and stuff like that, however you should started eating FIBER 1 CEREAL. i'm serious eat 2 big bowls a day and you'll be a changed person, and you'll never look back... i eat it everyday and it works miracles!!!
 
This is from an old post from FastandBulbous: (This is the ultimate constipation remedy).

Rather than methylnaltrexone, it'd be easier to just abstain for a day or two; after all all methylnaltrexone is going to do is inducce a rather rapid state of withdrawl (complete with turbocharged peristalsis) as it's an opioid antagonist.

If you are constipated through opiate use, the best & safest is probably colonic irrigation, be it professional or with some home setup, as anything that induces vigourous peristalsis can be quite dodgy if the fecal matter is impacted, which is a distinct possibility with chronic opiate use (a friend who had an opiate habit once delighted in telling me of how he had to use an apple corer to remove the middle of a huge stool, then let it collapse in on itself in order to pass it witout ripping his rectal sphincter to shreds . Even now I'm grimacing at the thought & he told me that little gem about 8 years ago! )
 
this is part of the opiate terroritory...eventually u will go no matter what....it is inevitable...and yes it is painful....however once ur binge ends u will go into withdrawl and have diarrea yay!
 
The longest I've gone without shitting was 8-9 days. And it was all from Tramadol. Trams constipate me worse than any other drug.

On the 7th day i was getting kinda worried. I'd been taking stool softeners, you name it... anything and everything to soften it up-- nothing.

My stomach was all bloated and i felt awful. Kept farting too lol.

So on the 9th day i tried something i never tried before- an enema. It's very uncomfortable but it did work. But, i had to use huh... my fingers to get most of it out. My poor butt started bleeding from the stretching i guess. Yea, probably TMI.. but another thing is the shit was up there so long it looked gross when it came out, like it was starting to rot. I guess rotting is a possibility if it's up there to long, all organic matter rots, right? Anyway.. it was gross.

So now what i do is make sure i eat a bowl of cereal everyday, like raisin bran. And on top of that i take a laxative every other day.. if i need it. Also lots of water.

I rarely go 4 days now, usually i go about every 3 days but it's hard as a rock and a bitch to get out.

Sorry for the details lol. But, i think you all can handle it.

Ps.. it's amazing how as soon as you go into withdrawal the shit that was all blocked up mysteriously because soft and lose and you can't stop shitting. It just amazes me how one minute I'm constipated and a few hours later I'm in withdrawal and it all turns to the runs. I'd rather be constipated than be in withdrawal though lol

Yeah, I guess if the constipation gets too bad we can always just stop using opiates... cleans out your plumbing like nothing else while you're withdrawing.
 
I use a thing called Manevac. You take two teaspoons with a glass of water for each wait a few hours and you'll feel 2 stone lighter. Not diarrhea type shit. Just healthy.
It's fiber based granuals.
 
I started poppy seed tea maybe a month ago, and yeah I was surprised when I noticed 3 days had gone by and no shit! When I finally did get "the feeling" I remember sitting on the can at work and used all my might to squeeze out a mighty annocanda that would scare Sam Jackson to death. I think my asshole opened up more than it ever had in my life, I walked away feeling like I had just spent a night with the Village People.

One important thing to remind people of: try your best NOT TO SQUEEZE TOO HARD! I know most of you have probably sat there pushing that shit (ha ha) as hard as you can, but this is very bad for you. If you're in poor health it can trigger anyurism, make your heart stop or just blow something inside you up.

In fact, this is what killed Elvis (true fact). He was on a ton of opiates and it made him constipated. That fateful night he was on the bowl he was straining too hard to squeeze one out and it stopped his heart.

Yes, he was already in bad shape, but this is what pulled the trigger.

So try some of these other tips before you turn your sphincter inside out!

And remember the King.
 
^^^^^Constipation killed the King^^^^^

This will probably replace the "apple corer story" when I am sitting on the can thinking deep thoughts.

The only time I've had it real bad has been from a ~2-week oxycodone binge. In fact even doing oxy for several days backs me up decently bad. Its rough :(

Morphine and heroin don't seem to cause constipation as badly ime...
 
Try MIRALAX. It is a stool softner/laxative. I've had terrible chronic constipation since I was a teenager. Miralax used to be prescription, and now it is OTC. It comes as a powder, and you take it everyday. It doesn't always help immediately. It takes a couple of days, but if you are consistent, it will really help you I think. I also am addicted to opiods now, and that is the worst, since I already have chronic constipation, but I'm telling you MIRALAX. It is marketed for women, so it comes in a pink and purple bottle, but you don't have to be a woman to use it or for it to be beneficial. I would strongly recommend it to anyone with this problem. Be consistant though. Mix it with coffee or hot tea in the mornings if you can.
 
Also, Miralax will soften things up. It is the best thing since sliced bread, let me tell it.
 
During my worst Op addiction back in '06 when I had to dose repeatedly from 9am until 9pm, the only time when I could "go" was right when I first opened my eyes, first light in the morning.

This often led to some uncomfortable, memorable, explosive trips to the bathroom. And a stack of reading materials. 2 Plungers. A telephone. My laptop. Sometimes a snack. LOL

Constipation is one of the worst parts of opiate addiction bar none
 
I've gone for weeks during the worst of my heroin times. To the point you gota reach in and scrape it out lol. It's as close as a man can come to experiencing the pain of child birth lol.

Any way stool softners and stimulant laxatives seem to help.

ALSO, BE CAREFUL, an acquaintance of mine died from heroin induced constipation. So please for the love of good make sure you shit at least every other day.
