need help please, want to make sure i'm ok

[perrier87]

Hey guys,

so i sniffed up 5mg of opana ir (took a 20mg and cut it into 4.. i was given it by a friend since i have severe back pain) and i have had no effects. i mean i feel kind of buzzed but not really. i get a bigger buzz off of orally taking a perc10. did i mess up? i broke it up into 4 lines, then put some water down my nose before hand to moisten up the nasal passage for better absorption and then took each line 10 mins apart from each other (my first time snorting...anything) didn't really do anything at all.
i also have a very low opiate tolerance.. last time a took an opiate was months ago.

its been two hours. i want to go to sleep but i am too scared to right now because of the thought of it creeping up on me when i sleep. i plan on staying up for an hour longer. please let me know i just want to make sure i'm safe.

i just ate two pieces of bread and a cookie and drank some water. i feel kind of hazy but nothing significant.

please someone help me

If it has been over 2 hours since nasal administration you are okay to sleep. 5mg of nasal oxymorphone is definitely stronger than 10mg of oral oxycodone though so there was some sort of screwup somewhere down the line. I think most likely is you didn't grind up the pills enough and got chunks stuck up there. Other options would be you got too much of a drip or the pills were bunk.

edit:
Also the preemptive water irrigation could have caused all your membranes to seize up. Do you have any evidence it is good for absorption?

thank you so much, i'm so sleepy been a long day, and this whole opana thing got me all worried since i read so many good and bad things about it online. not sure if i want to do this again despite the fact that i still have 15mgs left. i just really enjoy percs and my friend told me that its like it but smaller and better. i'm not really sure if a high is worth risking my life over.

i did have the pills pretty fine i thought but i guess not. the pills definitely weren't bunk because i saw my friend rail the whole 20mg and he was blasted but hes a heavy user and he gave me one out of his little stash.

also to be honest i'm not sure where exactly i read it but i remember reading on erowid about someone moistening up their nasal passages before they snorted some form of opiate so i figured that might work well... ah well i guess not.

again thank you so much, you really calmed my anxiety about this whole opana thing. i think i might just stick to my trusty percs.

You didn't take anough IMO not even for someone with low tolerance. That is a MINISCULE dose by any standards.

 

[amapola]

^Not by any standard. Oxymorphone is twice as strong as oxycodone orally (Bluelight Opioid Conversion Chart) and twice as strong again nasally (Bioavailability/Half-life MEGA Thread) so 5mg up the nose is equal to 20mg of oxycodone PO which is a pretty solid and standard dose for the opiate naive (Beginner's Dosage Guide).

edit:
Hey OP I'm going to swing this over to BDD so it can go with your other threads. There was no need to cross-post the "no effects" thread and it could have gone into your initial dosing question thread quite easily as well so people had some context.

OD >>> BDD

Well, the potency intranasally compared to oxycodone probably has more to do with the fact that oxycodone sucks intranasally compared to oral. Still, I find it hard to believe that 5mg of opana is going to do a whole lot more, 2 hours after ingestion.

That said, Bluelight is not a replacement for a health professional. If you are worried I would suggest calling your local doctor/hospital or 9/11.

 

[hydroazuanacaine]

amapola is right; 5mg up the nose is not a small dose. i would say even on the larger side of 20mg oral oxycodone.


oh and edit:
OP, if you do end up continuing to experiment with opana, know that the effects take much longer to reach their max than oxycodone. so if you are only feeling it a little after 45minutes, don't jump the gun on re-dosing. though your plan to just stick to percs sounds like a good one.

Bluelight is not poison control. If you feel like you may have taken too much of a substance, contact poison control or your local emergency.

Threads like this are absolutely not allowed on bluelight because as I've already mentioned, the first thing you do is call poison control or your local emergency if you suspect overdose or anything of that nature - not come on bluelight and beg "please quick question..help".
