Does it really make a difference? Is there any point to it? I used to, similar to smoking weed, I thought it got you higher or something.
 
The active ingredients in cannabis smoke, as well as vaporized heroin, are going to be absorbed within 1 second or less; there's no need to hold in the smoke.

Yes I remember hearing this before, I can't wait to tell my stupid friends who are taking big hits with their cheeks puffed out holding in the smoke/vapor that they're completely wasting their time. :D
 
^exactly.

this should have been posted in cannabis discussion; i'll report it to have it moved.

why are you reporting my post? And having it moved..? This was regarding heroin smoking/vaporizing...the part about weed was just me drawing correlations.
 
I always thought it was more a matter of how much vapor you inhaled at once not how long its in your lungs, glad to know my instincts were probably right

The amount of time the drug takes to penetrate the circulation system when inhaled is unique to the drug itself; most drugs of abuse that are commonly vaporized/smoked are absorbed quickly via inhalation - the only exception I could think of off the top of my head would be salvia.
 
really?

if this sounds snotty i dont mean it to be, but how do you know this? is there scientific data youve read backing it up, or is it just your opinion? ive searched high and low for real info about smoking oxycodone, and i cant find anything besides occasional ramblings of.. less than credible sources.. ive become bery particular to this method, i can say i think its probably a lower bioavailability, but definitely hits faster than iv, best way to snap right out of wd. anyhow, ever since i was a teen secretly getting stoned in my room at night, ive made a habit of holding my breathe and exhaling no smoke, which im certain got me more stoned. i debate about the effectivrness with OC, but cant claim to be verysure, i just know for how god damned much i have to pay for it, im not taking any chances wasting any.. but id love to hear any factual data on the matter, not easy to find.

It could be lack of oxygen making u lightheaded which is why you think your getting higher. Similar to the whole theory of "don't cough don't get off"

not sure if serious ?

your worried about wasting oxycodone yet you choose to smoke it. Which is 100% hands down THEE least effective ROA.

smoking pills is dumb. if you smoke pills you are dumb.

Ease up man, we don't come here to get insulted or judged. Seriously, chill! Trust me, I get your point but you don't have to shove it up his ass.
 
Somking oxy (oc) is what first got me into opiates not very effective but enough to trap you. Holding it in longer feels like it gets me higher but it could just be a placebo effect even though it does seem to put me in a nod.

like i said, i realize its a lower bioavailibility, buts not ineffective at all, its the best and fastest way to snap out of withdrawal, even if you just use a little and take one hit. and again, you are speaking so confidently, and rudely, about something that seems to be... your opinion. if you have a link or can sight some real research id be very interested in reading it. the reason im on here, using this message board, a place for sharing knowledge, is to try and asertain factual data about smoking opiates, and thus make an educated decision about the activity. you seem to be here, to insult me, with a rather limited vocabulary at that.. so who's stupid?

and to wolfman, interesting point, but i dont really register any lightheadedness, the effects i get aremore along the lines of a rush, shooting down the spine and to the extremities, usually occuring upon exhale. this effect lessens a bit with every hit after the first though.
 
There's alot of charts and threads detailing which roa has highest bioavailability and the percentage of drug that gets to your system. Just google opiate bioavailability and that should help u out

I will say that smoking pills has a lower if not the lowest bioavailability of all the roa's, and while it may snap you out of w,d fast, it's really not worth wasting so much when you could just pop or rail it and have to wait a little longer, plus whenever I've seen people smoke pills it just seems like there's so much opportunity for things to go wrong, having to slid the pill/dope down the foil the right way without dropping it, chasing the smoke with a straw and letting half of it dissipate in the air...too many opportunities to fuck it up imo

I'm an opiate addict and whether u shoot, smoke, snort, plug or eat, doing opiates is still pretty dumb, and I'm dumb for doing it
