Ok this past weekend I consumed high amounts of opiates, Friday (20mg's oxy, 30mg's hydro) Saturday (30 mg's oxy) and Sunday (55 mg's hydro).. My question is, After Sunday night I have only taken 10mg's of oxy every 8 hours.. Will my tolerence drop by this coming weekend if I'm only taking 10mg's every 8 hours ?, Or do I need to stop totaly for tolerence to fade ?. Before this past weekend I was only taking 10mg's every 8 hours for about 1 week, And 10mg's every 4-6 hours for 2 weeks before that.
Anyone's .2 cents would be great thanks.
 
Once you get your tolerance to a certain level, it is difficult to drop it/decrease significantly. If possible, quit opiate use all week and then start up again this weekend. Using opiates every couple of hours wil ONLY increase your tolerance, not reduce it.
Bottomline, if you want to have a similar weekend to last, stop now and pick up where you left off on Sunday. You DON'T HAVE TO stop right now, but if you want to lower that increasing evil we call tolerance, take a break. Have fun....
 
That sucks !!... I would stop now if I didnt need some every time my knee started hurting.. Ahh well, Looks like I'm SOL..
 
Dude, Actually this is the first time I have asked that question, There was a question that was similar which was "How long does it take for tolerence to fade ?". Thanks a bunch. =)
