Is it illegal to stock up on drugs?

On a big Island surrounded by sharks.
I visit my doctor every 8 days for a prescription of 250ml bottle of liquid Oxycodone Hydrochloride which I am prescribed for chronic pain. I am now taking a break from Oxycodone after having been on it for 3 years but I plan on continuing to go to my Doctors every 8 days and obtaining my usual prescription without informing him of my break. In about 3 months I will have around a dozen bottles of 250mg Oxycodone Chloride and if I continue at that rate I will have a huge stockpile by the end of the year.

Last time I stocked up in this manner I enjoyed the freedom of not worrying about running out once I started on it again and I could just use it whenever I wanted without informing my doctor of the dose change due to running out early and it was great just seeing so many bottles in my possession. But now onto the legal question...is there anything illegal about stocking up in this manner, or a limit to how many bottles or boxes of prescription drugs you can have in your possession? Or is there any law that says a patient has to inform his doctor if he stops using prescription drugs or if he takes a break he shouldn't continue to obtain the medication for later use?
 
shit you ge liquid oxy in aus?
sounds cool
SHIIT
you could make liek
super epic win drank with that
insted of just purple drank
 
Yea that would be sweet, I always wanted to try purple drank.

If I was healthy enough I would probably make some nice drank mixtures with the Oxycodone liquid, but I can't try any of that :(

The reason why they prescribe me the liquid Oxycodone is because I am so sensitive to to opiates that I had to desensitize myself to it little bit by bit and because the lowest dose for pills only came in 5mg and I couldn't take that cause I have a damaged Autonomic Nervous System causing me reactions to opiates, so I had to start on a liquid dose of 1mg then 2mg and work up slowly. Like with pills you can only go up 5mg then 10mg and 15mg but I couldn't do that so I was like using 7 mg for a year and then worked up to 8mg. So basically they don't prescribe the liquid for everyone but I am sorta special :p, in a retarded kinda way, hehe :D

i'd say what you're doing will be illegal, you'd more than likely have a legal obligation to notify your doctor if you don't require the drugs any longer, especially if it is oxycodone in this day and age - without knowing anything further. plus we're not here to aide your legal questions.

i'm in australia as well and am prescribed oxycontin and knowing just how hard it is getting adequate pain relief when required, i wouldn't risk it over something so
selfish in the big scheme of things. what if you were to require ongoing treatment and were found out? not such a cool idea huh?

it's also every addicts dream to do this, i've aspired to it. it's not going to happen;)

^ Sorry to override you dispo - the OP sent me a PM explaining his position and I thought it was worth giving it a shot in AusDD. If the AusDD mods disagree, feel free to do with it as you see fit :)

^ Thanks for re-opening. I consider this a perfectly reasonable HR thread (harm doesn't have to be physical) and disposition didn't actually give an answer based on any facts, just his personal opinion (kind of like my thread that psilo came out of hibernation to shut down because he has "better things to worry about" 8)) Some mods are a little too quick to close threads sometimes :\

Anyway, it may depend which state you're in OP. I'd be surprised if it varied too much, but in SA the law (found here) states:

(3) For the purposes of this section, a person who knowingly has in his or her possession more
than a prescribed amount of a drug of dependence or a prohibited substance, being an amount that
is prescribed for the purposes of this subsection, will, in the absence of proof to the contrary, be
presumed to have that drug or substance in his or her possession for the purpose of the sale or
supply of that drug or substance to another person.

So yeah, probably not worth the risk as it sounds like you have/will stockpile an amount that would easily be considered to be for distribution. Stay safe ;)
 
@dude who mentioned purple drank
it's nothing too good, trust me.
or at least i've done it before and i'd rather snort oxy or om nom nom it
 
I should have also said this from the start... the other reason I want to stock up is because my doctor makes me feel uncomfortable every time I go in for a prescription, he has mentioned several times about stories of people doctor shopping and junkies asking him for prescription and how much he dislikes prescribing these drugs even for legitimate reasons, so I feel like I just want to save up as many as I can in case he decides to cut me off after 3 years .

I also started using Oxycodone for chronic pain associated with my Autonomic Neuroptahy and joint pain, I also have a complex medical history of Autonomic Dysfunction, my reasons for seeking pain relief was very legit although recently I may have corrupted myself misusing it for emotional pain too thus requiring me to increase my dose. I apologize to Disposition if I amy have seemed insensitive to chronic pain sufferers, I know how hard it is for them to obtain pain medication without people like me making doctors even more suspicious, I guess I have become what I hate because I too used to curse the drug abusers for tainting my attempts to seek pain relief.

Divine Moments, I appreciate you actually get where I am coming from, it was exactly my reasoning too. I also felt I did not get a definitive response from the reply's before my thread was closed. Thank you for the that link.
 
I'm not sure about the legality, but unless you were selling them or the police had some other reason to be in your house I can't see how it would become a problem.

That said, one of the signs of misuse/abuse/diversion that doctors look for is patients filling their prescriptions even when they aren't consuming the meds, so if you let it slip that you aren't taking the meds as prescribed or if he urine tests you or something, it's fairly likely he'll get pretty upset, possibly cut your script etc. Something to consider.
 
There is no amount of money in the world anyone could offer me that would ever convince me to ever sell any type of drug ever again because I learned a valuable lesson in its dangerous following my own overdose on amphetamines 11 years ago which left me disabled. I can never put myself in a position again where I may feel guilt and be responsible for any adverse effects people may experience as a result of misuse, I have karma to answer for if I ever did that again.

My question so far is only theoretical because I have not successfully managed to quit my regular daily dose of Oxycodone that I have been using for pain management for the past 3 years, let alone stocking up on it like I mentioned. So please take my question with a grain of salt but I still wanted to know where I stand legally if I did however do this.

being posted in DC originally of all places i made a judgement call from little info provided by the OP in the first place, im human too. and the OP, like myself, could have spent the few minutes googling to find a much more definitive answer.

my standpoint is that people asking about these sorts of legal issues should do a little more research initially rather than coming straight to bluelight, even if theoretical. opinions are like arseholes and everyones got one around here.

I apologize to Disposition if I amy have seemed insensitive to chronic pain sufferers, I know how hard it is for them to obtain pain medication without people like me making doctors even more suspicious, I guess I have become what I hate because I too used to curse the drug abusers for tainting my attempts to seek pain relief.

no need to apologise, i'm more than hypocritical when it comes to this subject because i abuse my pain med as well. to me it read that you had the intent of getting off the oxy altogether yet continuing to gain the prescription. that's where my problem comes in. and i know that feeling of guilt going in to a cunt of a doctor asking for refills, it's something you have to wipe off though. you're entitled to adequate pain relief given your circumstances. and sometimes easier said than done - find a better, caring and understanding doctor.

Thanks for your suggestion. The way it works here my part of town is that you get a referral from your family doctor to see a "pain management clinic" and then you get put on a waiting list as I did. I waited several months and eventually when they call you in and they assess your condition and in my case I was given a trial of pain medications. There is a lack of pain management centers in Australia and I had to travel and hour into the city to a clinic in the hospital.

For any follow up appointments I had to wait another month to be seen because that is how great Australia's public health system is. Once they determine your treatment plan they contact your referring doctor and then have him take over the continuation of your treatment. In my case I goto my doctors once every 8 days for medication, there is no way a pain management clinic could accommodate for that type of regular visit weekly just to prescribe medications which is why they have your family doctor take over that part of the process. If you are on a disability pension as I am you often have to deal with the public health system due to the high costs associated with seeing private specialists which cost into several hundred dollars per consultation. Can you imagine if I had to pay $200 every 8 days just to get a prescription for my pain medication? =D
 
Are you in Victoria? If so I know a good pain specialist who you should see. It's not about seeing them weekly, its having a good one that tells the doctor what you need and to not fuck around. PM me if you are near Melbourne.
 
Using any prescription med except under the direct orders of the doctor is illegal I thought, so you'd probably be breaking that law in some way by not using them but still getting prescribed them, as that still isn't using as directed. You'd def be breaking the law if you used them at a later stage, except as prescribed, I would think.

I always thought 'purple drank' was just dihydrocodeine.

And speaking of codeine, is it illegal to have multiple boxes of over the counter preparations at the one time...?

It's pretty similar to the combo we were touting on here this time last year, that being Codeine and Phenergan:

Its main ingredient is prescription-strength cough syrup containing codeine and promethazine. Cough syrup is typically mixed with ingredients such as Sprite soft drink or Mountain Dew and pieces of Jolly Rancher candy. The purplish hue of purple drank comes from dyes in the cough syrup.

I ran into some cats who were talking about the Purple Drank at Xmas except they recommended adding DXM as well.

There is various recipes, it's not a standardised thing as you can imagine.
