I agree that smoking pills isnt a great idea. In fact, I believe that was one of the first things I said in this thread.
I had oxycodone 10mg IR for severe back pain. I was never in so much pain that I couldn't wait 15 minutes for them to kick in.
Lucky you.
I can understand preference. But some things are somewhat objective. Oxy has the highest availability when ingested (possibly plugged). The literature is pretty clear on it. Any other method of intake isn't as efficient as oral when it comes to oxy.
Or what about people who throw up due to a severe inflammatory stomach condition? We cant go to the ER 4 times a day. They dont prescribe rigs for shooting up to pain patients. Patches are an option, but not for breakthrough pain.
Yes, I could just buy some H so that I could smoke it, but then I have to deal with purity and dosage issues on top of legal issues....I have a family to take care of. Its not that I wouldnt smoke some opium if I had it, but my insurance doesnt cover it....I pay $15 a month per prescription and thats what works for me.
I feel like some people can be a little judgmental.
If you could freebase or smoke pure oxycodone in a form that is intended for smoking, that isnt the same as trying to burn pills with bindgers that isnt intended for smoking.....Lets not confuse idiots who smoke Tylenol with people who are interested in legitimate tech to make a smokeale product.
It's because this is a harm minimalization board, not a get as fucked up as possible board.
Smoking pills that are intended to be taken by mouth is harmful to your lungs PERIOD.
Smoking oxycodone isnt necessarily going to get you more fucked up. Its just going to hit you faster.
I cant speak for the OP or others in this thread, but I was not asking about smoking pills with all the binders in it. I was asking about a better way to make a smokable product from nearly pure oxycodone.
What would be nice maybe is if they had smokeless inhalers with pain medication in it....maybe something like fentayl, or whatever is potent enough to be carried in an spray with relative consistency of dosage. It can go straight to the lungs without having to burn anything and hit you faster than swallowing but without the need for shooting.
Anyway, I thought I made it very clear that I didnt think that smoking pills was a great idea. I was mildly curious about turning pure oxycodone into a smokable product though, assuming that is considered just a preparation method.
