I'm hoping someone can help me out with some dosage help in the name of harm reduction.

I'm a long time/ high tolerance user of just about every kind of opiate and have a friend who is very inexperienced; she's gotten a hold of some 8mg dilaudid tabs and wants to rail them with me. Sounds like a fun time, but I have no experience with dilaudid and don't want her going over the edge by giving her some bad advice. She's a 120lbs female that has the occasional 10mg of hydrocodone. So, pretty small and pretty opiate naive.

I know the old motto of start low and take more later if you need it, but she's not like that and I don't want to take a nap and find she's gone off and done too much while I'm not looking. So, if anyone has any experience from a similar situation, some dosage advice would be very appreciated. thanks.
 
Dillies are MUCH stronger than the hydrocodone. I'd recommend insufflating ~1/8-1/4 of the 8mg tab and see where it goes. The trick w/ dillies is to spread the lines out anyway. There's so little active compound in them that the nasal cavity just won't absorb all of it. Doing the 8mg all in one go wouldn't produce the same effect as doing 8 lines 10 minutes apart (which would be very pleasurable if it's the correct dose for tolerance.

My suggestion is to crush it up and bump it until the desired effects are achieved. Don't do it all at once or it'll be a waste (it'll be the same as dosing orally, and oral Dilauded blows)(because it'll just drip down to your stomach).

if she only has a 10mg hydrocodone tolerance you guys should be EXTREMELY careful with dilaudid. i would break the 8mg pills into 4ths giving you a rough estimate of 2mg and crush those into lines of 4 and snort one at a time. give the pill time to hit you between rails so you can gauge when you need to stop.


i wouldnt suggest letting her do more than 2mg
 
dilaudid=brand name hydromorphone


maybe i am missing something but what do you mean dillies are much stronger than hydromorphone?

Whoops, I was thinking hydrocodone like vicodin. I'm going to edit my post above for correctness. Early morning brain fart is what I mean. :p

And your second post is spot on, albeit further conservative than I with the dosing. In my younger days I used to take ~8mg with a small tolerance and just be overly numb, rather than high. (*DO NOT TAKE THIS AS A RECOMMENDATION*)
 
I'll heed your advice and cap it at 2mg, spread out, for her first experience. Then go from there.

Thanks everyone for being very helpful and polite. Cheers.
