hi everyone! im new and have a question :)

[onone23]

I'm a very regular user (for about 3 years now). I take 10mg hydrocodones and 10mg percs. It takes me about 60mg's to be on (i usually just take 6 of whichever I have) and thats about 2 times a day, plus an extra 2 or 3..

I have an OP 80 and 2 10mg norcs. I was tryin to decide, since the op's are time release (and I can't find a straight answer) how much is released at once? I mean, I'm sure i can just pop the whole 80, but is that gonna do anything? or is there a special way to take it? .... OR, should I pop the whole 80 and the 2 norcos and call it good?

Thanks in advance!

I should add, back when the old OC formula was around, I used to snort and smoke a bunch of those.. If that helps at all regarding my experience with oxycodone. I do roxy 30's too lol.

P.s. boy does typing that all just make it seem so much worse! ugh lol :/

Lol nobody? I was lookin to take it today... but I'll wait I guess

The absorption of oxycodone from OXYCONTIN® tablets is biphasic, with an initial absorption of approximately 40% of the active medicine (T½ = 0.6 hrs) providing onset of analgesia within one hour in most patients, followed by a more controlled absorption, which determines the 12 - hour duration of action (T½ = 6.2 hrs).

So basically, 40% of the tablet is released initially and the rest over time.

Thank you! Ya, that was what I had read from people who seem to be more experienced with the op's time release. I did decided to take the 2 Norcos along with the op80. I figured, if I were to get 40% of the OP at once, that is 32mg plus my 2 10mg's, comes out to about 52mg's at once. I can handle it for sure lol.

But thank you again
