Morphine Question

I moved half a country away from my opiate connections and heroin habbit.

After a bout with PPT and Vic addiction these past few months I had some Bupe sent to me... Took 4 8mg pills over the past week and stopped taking them 48 hours ago.

Anyways, my only opiate connect (Viks) in my new state threw 7 15mg Morphine pills in as a bonus. They're white, small and round with the inprint of "54 733"..

Are these IR, SR or ER? IR I hope. I need to know if I can snort them.

Is there a safe conversion I can use from Viks? I usually eat 8-10 5/500s. So, if one is able to snort these how many should I do? I was never a big fan of morphine usless I was injecting it. The bio sucks.

Type your imprint into Google along with the color and shape, and you will find it.

If you're taking them orally (best route other than maybe plugging, excluding IV), I'd start at about 1.5x the amount in mg of hydrocodone you take, and take more if necessary. As you mentioned, the bioavailability is pretty variable with morphine; some people absorb it much better than others. Therefore, you may need a bit more than 1.5x, maybe up to 3x the dose of hydrocodone that you take. The only way to find out is to start at around 1.5x and take more if necessary.

I did Google it. I couldn't find any information in respect to the release it is. IR, ER or SR.

Thanks for the reply regarding conversion.
 
Dude, it is instant release.

If it were not, it has to be named in such a manner to descibe the formulation.
If it says nothing special, the pill has nothing special about it: No "ER", "CR", "SR", or "Contin" means it is the plain old "IR" form of the drug.
 
wouldn't it not really matter if they were IR//ER//SR//etc if they are being crushed for insufflation??

i wouldn't think it would particularly matter, but i don't know anything about morphine which is why i asked.

also, there are tons of conversion charts on the web.
i would go with bollweevil's method of conversion//intake if you can't find one or just don't feel like searching. morphine pretty much sucks, imo, so if you started @1.5x your usual hydrocodone dose i'd imagine you will be fine. always remember to start small and work your way up :)

It would matter.

1. Morphine sucks nasally. You are gonna need loads of it to get high that way, and pills are gonna do no good for nasal administration. The absorption is at about ~10% nasally, which is lower than oral ~25%, and the fillers in the pill will lower that even more if you snort them.
2. Anything but IR is gonna gel up in your nose, and hinder even more absorption than IR with all those fillers.
 
It would matter, because anything other than IR will gel up in your nose.

gotcha.
see, told ya i didn't really know anything about morphine :)

i have to agree with the consensus though that if it is not specified it would be IR. to be on the safe side- you could shave a bit off and put a droplet of water on it to see what happens before just going ahead and snorting?
