OC Question

Maybe the Oxycontin is not all that evenly distributed in the pill, so when you cut it into quarters, you weren't really dividing it up equally? Maybe you got more than just the 10 mgs you were after?

Also, what you describe (the nausea) is from taking too much of the med....either cut back on the amount(duh, sorry) or get some Phenergan(promethizine) you will not feel the nausea and it supposedly potentiates the Oxy, Hydro or whatever Opiate you are taking.
 
It's a thought, but again I've taken up to 40mg of oxycodone (and more) with no problems whatsoever before - even crushed percocets for faster release, so even if it wasnt evenly distributed, I dont think the pill would contain enough to make me feel ill from it.
 
Somebody suggested that Purdue had started using measures to make users sick if they crushed the pills, but I'm sure everyone would have heard a lot more about this if it were true..

I saw on CNN just yesterday that they will be using this meathod in about 3 to 5 years
 
Unless I was one of the few lucky enough to get a experimental beta-batch, I'm guessing that's not the case. But yes, that definately does suck.

I am in the habit of taking Percosets, and I have been for almost a year and a half. I take at very least 15mg a day, and at times up to 50-60mg. If I dont take at least 10mg a day, I start to feel pretty unpleasant, as you can probably imagine..

What could it possibly be that makes me feel so incapacitated after only 10mg worth of OxyContin?

Vico: Little to late to avoid the oxycodone habit.. I was just more curious as to why this form would effect me so much differently than what I'm used to.


Are you kidding me? You think its too late to avoid a habit? You said that if you dont have at least 10mg a day you "feel pretty unpleasant". You could easily quit if it only takes 10mg of oxycodone to hold you a day, and with some loperamide, you probably wouldnt experience physical withdrawal symptoms at all. Quit now before you develop an actual habit. Jesus christ.....
 
Sorry my habit dosent live up to your standards. I'd say any amount of opiates on a daily basis for over a year is enough to become pretty attached.
I live in an apartment, and have about $1100 a month in bills to pay, so it's not without effort that I've managed to avoid a habit I could never afford.

10mg is not exactly enough to hold me a day, but it's the minimum I will take if I'm running out, and trying to stretch out whatever supply I have left.
Also, I have gradually been taking less, not more, in an attempt to avoid a 'real habit'. Your concern is appreciated.
 
Pursuant to a suggestion someone had made earlier:
Are the binders in OxyContin water soluable?
If not, I'm thinking there might be a way to do a water extraction by dissolving the powder and filtering it, that way eliminating another variable in it. Just an idea.
