I am desperate for help.. when I do a line a few minutes later my nose gets so congested I can't breathe through it, can't blow my nose NOTHING.. all my mucous drips out and I can see some of the oxy in it!!! my nose wasn't fucked up like this at first.. but after about a year of doing this.. my nose can't take it anymore.. its a waste of money and i dont get high.. what am I supposed to do for my nose to stay open after I snort the drug (I am fine before snorting it.. no mucous or anything... I just get EXTREMELY congested after snorting)... after about 45mins my nose opens up and I blow my nose and SOO much shit comes out...


WTF??????
 
Have you tried using a saline solution to cleanse your nasal cavities prior to snorting?

Also, is this OC IR or Oxycontin?-- brand name or a generic?

You could also try using a Neti Pot (from time to time) as a means to keep the passageways clean(er).
 
I hope you are not snorting OPs, but that's what it sounds like. Anyways, if that much is coming out then you should just start eating the pills. Its roughly twice the bio availability assuming your dissolving all of the pill by snort....... which your not.
 
(that's what I was wondering... because it shouldn't get all stuck up in your nostril/s and come out later. Rather, it should stay there, and perhaps drip. Cuuurious) *If indeed OPs - swallow them!
 
Just eat them bro. It has a higher Bio Avaliability (the ammount of drug getting into your blood anyway)...okay your gonna have a hlaf hour to 40 minute wait but when it hits you...youll know.

I think he is talking about IR. Theres no way anyone could snort those cursid OP's for a day forget a year.
 
If you insist on snorting (which is daft given that intranasal oxycodone has a lower bioavailability than oral), you could try a saline douche or just snorting a little bit of water after you've snorted your oxycodone. Shop-bought nasal decongestants can help but they can also be irritating to the nasal lining, can exacerbate any potential damage the drug could be doing as they work by constricting blood vessels in your nose (and I guess this could impair absorption of the next line too) and you get rebound congestion after stopping them.

So.. yeah. Best off eating them!
 
I am snorting oxycontin.. I dont know what OPs are.... my bf does the same and doesn't get congested like I do... and when I eat them i dont get as high.. like I dont get a rush.. so I'm NOT going to eat them.. sorry.. most people snort the pills actually.. (at least where I'm from they do...)

BUt I did find a solution: I take pseudophedrine hydrochloride... dristan... voila... it works!

oh and btw... it's the binders and fillers that cause the congestion (and my seasonal allergies).. my doc told me... so I guess IV is the way to go.. but thats not rly my thing..

Fillers and binders causing congestion is a lot better than fillers and binders causing lung damage after IVing pills, so glad you don't want to go there!

Intranasal will come on faster than oral, but the bioavailability is lower. It's a personal choice, whether you want a rush but overall less drug or no rush and more drug. Snorting's definitely more fun though, I admit that! Be careful with pseudoephedrine - it constricts the blood vessels and isn't good for your nose long term, and you will get rebound congestion if you use it too much..

If it's related to your allergies you could try an antihistamine too (if you don't already)
 
What i do to clear my nose is drop down and do as many push ups as i can then when i get up my nose is clear and i can continue getting high.
 
I guess you developed some allergy to it. I used to snort dilaudid, but I can't now I get the same thing you get with oxy. But I can snort oxy or anything else and be fine.
 
I agree with the netti pot suggesstion, you can use it twice a day, so just clean out your sinsuses twice a day, or start plugging them. I have tried and tried to just swallow them too, but it just doesnt do the same thing. I found out how to plug and it is a pretty intense rush. The only thing with it is that snorting gives me energy and plugging makes me nod out.
 
you would want to dissolve it in water first, get a syringe, dissole the OC in water lay on your side get out some vaseline and squirt the water mixture up there, lay on your ide for 30 mins afterwards. One thing me and my homeboe used to do when we would snort a lot is get vicks chest rub and put it under our nose right before and after snorting. It helps to keep things clear. also, maybe try snorting a small mount for the inital rush and eating the rest. So say in you do 80 crush or clamp the whole thing and eat 60, wait 30 mins then snort 20.
 
hey what works for my friend really well is this neo-synephrine(R) nasal spray stuff. my friend uses it before she snorts anything, then after snorting she lay on her side opposite of the side you snorted it up (so if you snorted up ur right nostral, then lay on your left side head flat not propped up) It works wonders for her and i hope it works good for you too! Happy Snorting- Nicoale
 
Not that much point in plugging oxycodone really as the oral bioavailability is so high (and I'm usually a big proponent of plugging!)

Although it does tend to come on quicker, and with some things you do get a bit of a rush sometimes..
 
Never tried snorting anything other than coke and stopped that a fair while ago. One of the best things I found was a steroid based nose spray (the prescription Rhinocort in AUS) it builds the walls of the nasal passage up, be warned tho, don’t use for any more than a week solid or you will start having less and less effect from whatever you are snorting. Oh, and I’m not sure if you have tried using a nasal douche and I’m not sure if Oxy will cause clots any way, but if snorting them does then I recommend a nasal douche a couple of times a week on days when you are giving the snorting a break.

I dont get how people plug pills, i understand that its one of the best ROA to get all the drug in your system, but theres just something about the thought of putting something up my ass, that just sounds horrible lol just not my thing i guess. Oh and to the Original Poster, you are very very lucky that you still get the normal oxycontins, i miss those things so friggin much, used to get 100 a month, but then they switched to the OP formula, so now I get Morphine 60mg instead. Also, you can snort the new OPs and IV them as well, haven't tried IV'ing them, but I have successfully snorted the OP Oxy's and gotten pretty damn high. Given, i prolly didn't get all of the drug to absorb and prolly lost some of it in the process of making it snortable, but I just wanted to experiment and try it once.
 
Man snorting isnt for some people, like me and you. I would rather pop my pills any day than snort em, they last longer and you get the whole high.
Your just wasting it by blowing out your nose and shit. You ever seen crushed powder mixed with nasal mucosa, that is why you cant breathe
