Long time reader, heroin dose question?

[Velados]

Hey everyone IV read a lot on here in the past so finally decided to join so I could post and possible give something back from all the advice I have found on here.
I do have a question regarding heroin dose,
Over the last 1.5 hours I have snorted about .8-1 gram of heroin and am not feeling much.
For the previous year I have been using OxyContin OC and have quite a tolerance. Around 200-300mg will normally give me a good buzz.
Do I need to use more heroin to equate to this?

Too many variables Velados, in my personal opinion, as street heroin of any quality will be inconsistent in potency.

I do hope that you gain some further light on this though through your new membership. Welcome to Bluelight!

Thanks so much, I was actually excited to get my first response ever so fast
What do you think an equivalent dose would be to 200mg of OxyContin of say an average grade of heroin would be, so not the worst but not the purest, somewhere inbeetween?
I know it's hard to say cuz of various qualities and how much it's been cut but if you were to take a guess?

Don't ask me I've never used Oxycontin!

I do not know how accurate and up to date they are, but our 'Basic Drug Discussion' forum http://www.bluelight.org/vb/forums/16-Basic-Drug-Discussion has, amongst other resources, the 'Bluelight Opioid Conversion Chart' http://www.bluelight.org/vb/threads/564885-Opioid-Conversion-Chart which has been composed by our support members from several, quality 'online sources', which may be a good place to start. It's presented in a similar fashion to benzodiazepine conversion tables, but using Morphine as the 'gold standard' currency conversion in the same fashion that diazepam is used when converting equipotencies for benzos, and compares heroin and standard oxycodone (not extended release products like the 'contin) when used both intravenously and orally.

you should really only need .25 gram witch is 250 mg if it's decent stuff
