1 or 2. id take 2. then another one 30 min later. then another one 30 min later. then see how you feel. lol. that will give you an idea on how hydrocodone is. i would take 4 at a time myself but thats with a tolerance. 20-25mg used to knock me on my ass/make me puke back in high school. i mean, you could probably handle 3, if you wanna get REALLY fucked up. but you might get all clammy and cold and sweaty and puke. probably not of 3 but there is a SLIGHT chance...now if you took 4 you proobably would.
i would take 2-3 to start out with little/no opiate experience. what the pros call "opiate niave". 2 and a half maybe.
really just 2 would be good. lol. then take another one 30 min later, and another 30 min later. then see how you feel, like i said before. just remember that high that you get is only going to last an hour or two so if you dont redose every half hour - hour then your high is going to fade away pretty quickly. hydrocode has a very short "half-life", which means it is out of your system very fast and you are not high, very fast, lol.
