How long does Hydrocodone/Vicodin last for you before the come down?

[OpioidDopioid]

I know they supposedly last 4-6 hours in total, but it seems like my come down starts after only about an hour. They say it should be peaking at about an hour and a half.

For me, the effects seem to peak at 40-50 minutes. Then by about an an hour to an hour and ten minutes I already start to come down. Oxycodone seems to peak at about an hour and those peak effects last for another hour. Does anybody else experience such a short peak high with hydrocodone/Vicodin?

everyone is different, and typical published figures are not for the duration of feeling high but rather the duration that the drug provides a useful painkilling effect

OD --> BDD

Yeah, about an hour for me as well. But then again, I have a tolerance to diacetylmorphine and am usually taking them to hold the sickness at bay.

 

[《Plasticity》]

For me, about 45 mins - 1h to come-up, 1-1.5 hour peak, and a 1 hour decline to baseline.

1hr and a half of actually being high. The other couple of hours are this slight glow of, 'damn i wish i was higher' and then the following is irritability, restlessness and sleeplessness

Damn, this is disappointing because I enjoy hydrocodone more than oxycodone as it seems to have less of a, "foggy mind," effect. Like you said, Blank, I really enjoy it while I'm up, but as I come down I have that exact, "damn I wish I was higher," feeling for another 2 hours. I don't really have the three issues you described other than I'm irritated that it didn't last very long.

Since you all seem to agree with me on it's peak effect lasting time, I'm quite disappointed. Such a great reward at the end of a long work week, but such a short lasting reward.

I would say I peak 45-60 mins then I'll platue for 30 mins(if it's hydrocodne) and then slowly go back to baseline, witch takes about 1-2 hours. Then I'll feel a nice afterglow for anouther 4-5 hours.
