Ok, so I have experience with opioids. I have taken hydrocodone quite a bit and oxycodone twice but im looking to try oxycontin. I take hydrocodone maybe twice a month, I'm 6 foot and weigh about 220lbs. Any recommendations?
 
I usually get a little pain relief and a slight buzz at about 60-80mg. Preferred dosage is 150-180mg gives me a nice high and better analgesia. Although I don't recommend that at all for someone that doesn't have much of a tolerance. When my tolerance was lower I could get some great pain relief and a really nice high with 40-60mg. Would help to know a tad more about your experience though. Everybody is different. Welcome to BL btw.
 
20mg of oxycontin is about the same peak effect as 10mg instant release oxycodone or about 15mg of instant release hydrocodone, but lasting approx. 2x as long.
 
If I were you I'd start with atleast 20 mg, the first time I ever did oxys it was 30 mg and i got a real nice high. Although I had experience with heroin prior to that so you might not want to go that high. If you feel your opiate experience is enough though then go for it, worst case scenario you get a little sick
 
For Oxycontin I would start with 20MG , wait an hour atleast and no high is achieved try 20 more milligrams. and that should get you feeling nice. Oxycontin i find for me is tricky. It's a hit or miss. One thing I hate about Oxy and hydro. But one good thing about Oxycontin is that it's extended release so it will last 2x longer than a regular oxycodone I.R. or hydrocodone. Hope this helps.
 
What mg is it, is it instant, or time released? Use safely....that means DON'T redose with time release soon after initial dose...you must give it time to work 1st.

Sekio gave you good mg info.

Always start small.with little tolerance.
