Hi bluelighters, I just have a question regarding how much Opana I should insufflate without over doing it. I am a recreational oxy user and normally blow 20-30 mg to feel a nice high. My boyfriend came across two 40mg Opana pills and I am wondering if anyone can give me some advice on how much I should blow. I have a special pill shaver and was told that even just the smallest part of a corner would be a good place to start. I know Opana's are much stronger than Oxy so I just want to make sure I'm playing it safe.

Any advice would be much appreciated. Oh and I am a 105 pound female 5'2.. if that at all matters.

Thanks!
 
Most people say to do less than have the dose you would of oxy, so for you I would say 10mg. I've taken it a few times and it is definitely strong, but I can't give an accurate equivalent dose of oxy since my tolerance was never really steady any of the times I did it since I was either at the end of an opiate binge, or the beginning of one. Opana is a very noddy high though, and I've seen females get sick from using a small amount, so start low.

I would try 5mg to start. I wouldn't really see you needing anymore than 10mg total, so starting with 5 and working your way up would be your best bet. You just have to figure out the best way to go about dosing it into 5mg lines. If you can use a pill cutter or razor to 1/4 the pill, that would be good, and from there crush one of the 1/4 pill pieces into 2 lines which will come out to roughly 5mg each. Sniff one line, then wait 35 minutes to figure out how much more to take. If quartering the pill is too hard, just cut it in half, crush it, and break it into 4 5mg lines.

I say to at least cut it in half before breaking it into lines because it will be easier to break a pile half the size into 4 lines or 1/4 the size into 2 lines, as opposed to trying to eyeball out 8 lines from the full pill.
 
Do what tommy said... 5mg every 10-20 minutes til where you want to be. It does not make me sick and I am female.. I can snort 4 40's... My tolerance is a monster.. Just be careful with it. The WD is pure hell and makes Oxy look like a joke. They call heroin the devil on the streets... Opana is really the devil. I don't even feel Heroin WD... maybe a runny nose.. lol It is what it is.. but just know what you're starting with. Good luck and enjoy.
 
Another tool to turn it into a fine powder would be a small hose clamp (a metal band with slits in it and a turning screw, as you turn the screw the band pulls smaller). Cut off the extra band that doesn't have the slits, flatten it and slowly scrap the pill along the rough side. Small shavings will fall off, pretty much powder, and this will make it seem fluffier then cutting or crushing the pill. You can then make the 5mg look like more, that way you don't go overboard right off the bat. I found the Opana harder to find, and after using it I had to go back to instant release Oxy to fullfill my needs. It will increase your tolerance and expectations of the high, not a good idea in the long run.
 
Tommy has just about covered everything. You're going to want to shave the pill down into a fine powder using your pill shaver or one of these:

It's a metal hose clamp, and it works unbelievably well. You won't need to take the coating off the pill or anything, which is a pain in the ass. (There's no reason to remove the outside coating anyway.) Just unscrew the metal hose clamp, straighten in out a bit, and use it like a cheese grater. Simply rub the pill over the slits and allow the powder to fall onto some flat surface like a book, cd case, mirror or whatever. Then rack up your line and sniff.

I think that ~5 mg would be a good place to start. And remember to keep the powder in your nose as best you can. Oxymorphone's oral bioavailability is garbage, something like ten percent, so every time you taste that drip... you're swallowing the substance, and hence wasting the drug. Oxymorphones nasal BA, on the other hand, is more like ~45% so sniff very softly, very slowly, and try not to sniffle or tilt your head back.

Wow, this is brilliant! I usually just use a little mortar & pestle for crushing- this is a way better idea. Thanks!

I bet the Ped Egg would work, but I can't look at one of those things without thinking of grated off foot skin that looks like parmesan cheese and it grosses me out! :)
 
Ehhh, the "new" sifters are dogshit. Try getting a stainless steel one from a marine supply store - much more likely to have one with some "teeth" - and you're going to want to use the inside of it, not the outer part (undo the worm-drive and bend it backwards).

Had I an opana in front of me, and any method at my disposal to break it down for insufflation, I'd cut it into 5-6 pieces with an X-acto knife and then use a mortar and pestle.

I've used plenty of hose-clamp sifters... In the last 2 years they've changed a bit so they're less easy to use for "other purposes."

Also - snort very small lines. There's so much binder that if you don't it'll be just like eating it, which has a crap BA. Doing 30mg of oxycodone, I'd suggest 10-15mg oxymorphone. In my experience it's less euphoric, and more numbing / analgesic than oxycodone. Take care & be safe!
