They totally detract from the codeine experience, but then it's hardly a strong opiate. Last time i used, i was violently sick twice and had to rub lotion everywhere that i'd itched just to sleep...over 3 hours after i took the drug.
Thankfully i'd had enough restraint to not itch until i bled in several places and woke up with stained sheets, that was the time before...
Perhaps the fact that i don't use much anymore (guess why), and because i filter it through a bed sheet has something to do with the potency of the itching. I used to use coffee filters, i'll try that again if anyone thinks there is something to it. I don't think i'll use the bedsheet filtration again, even if the APAP content in the 300ml of water is far below the 1g/70ml that you might expect at room temperature, i still worry about my liver. The water is probably about 2 or 3c when i drink it.
Anyone care to suggest how i could improve my method? Am i at risk here? Can i reduce the ithing and increase the intensity? Should i stop using drug's to escape my intrinsic mental and physical disfunction? All good questions...
