Hydrocodone extraction (removing Cyclizine)

[holyservant]

I have obtained several capsules known as Dicod301.
They contain hydrocodone bitartrate 15mg, Cyclizine hydrochloride 25mg, Benzyl benzoate 0.01%.

I want to extract the hydrocodone but I am unsure if a standard CWE would work here.

I've been trying to find info on the solubility of Cyclizine hydrochloride in water (and in ethanol) all over the internet with very little luck.

If anyone could help me figure this out that would be greatly appreciated.

After doing some further research it turns out these capsules also contain Bisacodyl 2mg. I am extremely concerned with removing the Bisacodyl, as taking it in large amounts would have extremely unpleasant results!

^ indeed, you definitely want to avoid that! You also don't want to ingest too much cyclizine as it has anticholinergic properties and can propduce delirium in high doses, which is usually very unpleasant.

I have no idea about solubility I am afraid..

Well the CWE was successful. Seems like my research was accurate: bisacodyl is not soluble in water.

However it seems like Dicod301 are much less potent than they claim to be :-\
It's pretty surprising because they were obtained from a hospital in south africa. one would think that meds coming directly from a hospital would be of better quality. oh well :-\

cyclizine hcl is not very soluble in water (~1mg/ml)...here is a current thread in ADD regarding cyclizine HCl. So just do a CWE with small volume of water and the majority of cyclizine should remain insoluble.

do i need to put heat on oxycodone 30ml tablets to inject? i'm not sure if i'd be dissolving them or baking some kind of chemical cake.

i know this isn't in the right forum but well that's typical [wrong place wrong time]. anyone out there?

no? ok since i'm talking to myself then how about this. how am i going to explain to my doctor that i've found something that's given me more pain relief than any of his little patches [that are supposed to be so powerful and do nothing] [nothing!] or pills have in...well years, any way.
"i fell onto a syringe and..."
"what, you haven't been following the news, Dr.? About the guy running around injecting strangers...and leaving post-its like this one, explaining what it is and how many and how it's prepared and...oh look, the page number of the PDR on the back...?"
or...
"Hey doc, remember the first day of med school when they told you NO ONE EVER DIES OF PAIN BUT LOTS OF CAREERS ARE RUINED FOR PEOPLE TRYING TO STOP IT? Aren't you glad you know now they didn't mean us?"
and pain most certainly does kill.
it's fatal, too.
