I’ve used Dihydrocodeine for 7 years now, started prescribed for an injury and now daily, around 900mg (2 or 3 times a day), really just to hold me and allow me to function.
Despite me using it for so long I’m bizarrely beginning to understand it less and less. Sometimes i actually feel really great on it, and others quite the opposite. This is outside of withdrawals, which of course i do understand implicitly, when they kick in what it feels like etc..i am talking about during a usual dosing day
On larger doses (c400-450mg) i CAN feel quite sick and very fuzzy headed, quite an un-pleasurable experience, equally smaller doses around 240mg i can feel pretty good, but its all very inconsistent, and can be the other way around. I believe the answer must be to do with the levels in my system, which obviously relates to previous dosing, and their must be an optimum amount, i would usually do a large dose if i haven’t had any for longer than normal, 16 hours maybe, so maybe ironically this isn’t enough or maybe a sudden load is no good, perhaps the re-dosing is the best way to take it and not overload the system?
Anyway this is becoming a major ramble, but i would love to hear from any who have cracked this drug, like i did at the start!
