I saw this kid on an MTV production who was addicted to smoking OC off of foil. I mean, do they (the kid and the corporation) think it's more hardcore to smoke it instead of just chewing it up and swallowing? Just like people with the snorting fetishes. No, you're not Tony Montana so just chew up the damn things. Christ.
I think it IS more hardcore. Any stupid, blonde, highschool girl can pop oxy all day long but once you move to smoking its like youre stepping up to another level. Id say its right beneath shooting heroin, its even stronger than smoking H hit for hit by far. It has a very distinct rush and although it doesnt last long(2-3 hours average) it is very addicting. Its an instant, super euphoric rush followed by an opiate high- whats better than that??? The only things imo that rivals it is shooting good quality dope or hydro/oxy morphone.
To the original matter... I know of atleast 50 people who smoke OC and have for several years, some over 5 even. No negative health effects have been observed or reported by any of them. As said before, smoking anything cant be great for you but lets not automatically assume its bad. People smokeBTH, fentanyl, marijuana and people dont look down upon that, I really dont see what the big deal is.8)
Theres really something to this smoking oxy thing, its not going to go away anytime soon because It MOST DEFINITELY works! I know people that have tried to switch to smoking BTH to be more cost effective and none of them stick with it since it is inferior. Lets all try to be open minded and find out as much as we can. This is about harm reduction right?!
Oral BA is 90%? Really? Source please
I do agree with your points, and thanks for the numbers. However, this topic was before the OC to OP switch, so I think HCL is increasingly popular now? I'd like some numbers on those toosomeone did present the temp statistics but deleted their post so i will post them in a second.
but don't you think it would be advantageous to the community if this information is available? that's the whole point of this site.
we might never get to any kind of conclusion but it's still a valid topic of discussion. from my limited exposure to the oxy smoking culture it seems to be growing and we've increasingly been faced with such posts in OD over the years.
statistics for the freebase salt, not Hcl, which is what we're really after. i don't have a source unfortunately because as i said the poster decided to delete his post so i've reposted.

Pills containing talc are dangerous to snort and smoke...Believe it or not, when you snort pills some fine particles make it into the lungs.
I don't believe many polymers completely combust, so its quite difficult to predict what you would be inhaling. However, you should know that the polymer isnt 100% of the pill and you aren't actually smoking that much material when you consider the size of most pills.. I don't believe its as dangerous as everyone makes it out to be (hype), but I don't deny adverse effects.
You could always trap the gas and run some qualitative tests
I just can't believe people have been recommending IV over smoking pills.
