Would it be a bad idea to take 6 percocets and later drink quite a bit of alcohol? And would a few skeletal muscle relaxers do anything with all that? Uhhh I'm new to this site and dunno what I'm doinnnn. :) :) :) !!
 
bad idea unless you have a high tolerance to percs and alcohol otherwise you could easily give yourself respiratory depression (especially with the muscle relaxers)
 
Depends how much you like your liver? For anyone to really answer this you need to tell us what your tolerance is and what kind of percs they are (oxy/apap content), and if you plan on doing a CWE.

Also, i hate to sound like i'm trying to be god of BL but typically combo questions are best asked in BDD... just for future referance :)
 
the other thing with mixing the percs and the alcohol is that the apap in the percs can do a lot of damage to your liver if you are mixing them with alcohol. you can combine those drugs in low doses but i dont know what would be safe. i would say if you take 1 perc with 3 beers you would definitely be alright. i dont know anything about muscle relaxers. Personally i dont think that percs mix well with alcohol. they might mix better with the skelatal muscle relaxers (you should tell us what drug you specifically mean).
 
Uh wellll I have a high tolerance for alcohol, but I haven't taken perks in awhile, but when I took them for awhile before, my tolerance was okay ha i don't know, not too low, not too high. But I don't know if that changes over time cause its been awhile. And the perks were oxycodone 5 and acetaminophen 325 (said 512 on them).... Okay so I'm not like an expert or anything ha but uh yeah. And i forget the name of the muscle relaxers, but whatever they are, they're low. And thanks Lando dude ha .. what's BDD? .. and CWE?
 
BDD- basic drug discussion, its a forum on here that alot of Other Drugs topics get moved into.
CWE- cold water extraction- the process of removing apap from pills such as oxycodone by dissolving said crushed substance into cold water, then filtering solution through a filter, leaving behind the apap, but carrying the oxycodone in the water.
 
Ughh I'm not tryin to be stupiddd, and I said I was newww, just tryin to learn so I don't do somethin dumb. And no, they're not skelaxin, it starts with a z I think.
 
I've combined oxycodone and alcohol many times, never had any problems.

Of course there is the potential for respiratory depression from the combination, so I would recommend you drink less than you usually would. If you are one of those people that can't stop drinking once they get started, then you probably shouldn't drink and just enjoy the oxycodone. Alcohol will just taint the opiate high anyways.
 
^^^^Yes I agree, I don't like to drink on opiates.... I like the pure opiate high... Now If I only had 1 or 2 pills, then I might drink some beers get drunk quicker.
 
Alcohol will overpower the Oxyodone, IME.. you really just end up wasting your opiate high.

Plus with all of the APAP, mix of downers, and hangover... just sounds shitty.
 
You have to know what your tolerance is, but its never a GOOD idea to combine drugs that increase the effects of one another. To give you an idea, a huge percentage of overdoses from opiates (group of drugs percocet is in) are when the person combines them with alcohol or benzodiazapines (xanax, valium, klonopin, etc.)
 
avoid taking alcohol and apap together as it doesn't do any favours for your liver - a quick search on the combo will bring up why. apap toxicity is bad enough without alcohol thrown in; a CWE would be a good way to avoid most the apap. personally i'd avoid combining the oxy and alcohol altogether as someone already pointed out the alcohol inhibits and dulls the oxycodone.

if you're going to add any muscle relaxants into the mix we need to know what and at what dose you're intending. we also need to know what strength percs you're taking to equate your total oxy dose. without knowing that at the moment the best advice i can give is to take the lowest dose of muscle relaxant you have or erring on the side of safe even more half a pill to start. we don't know what muscle relaxant you have, what dose they are and what your tolerance to them is.

i would just take the oxy by itself to get familiar with the high alone and once you're familiar with it and comfortable dosing try a small dose of a muscle relaxant with it as to gauge how they feel together at low doses without committing yourself into something which may be too inhibiting and uncomfortable for yourself.

ultimately it would be a great idea to have a friend there with you (who is sober) when you dose to watch you while under the influence. if anything starts to go wrong you've got them there.

saying all that welcome to bluelight. you'll want to check out OD's guidelines and posting standards by clicking on the links in my signature so you're aware of what's acceptable and not before posting next time. these kind of basic combo questions belong in Basic Drug Discussion so i'll move it over there for you now.

hopefully you can come back and fill us in on those missing details before dosing as to avoid any complications:) hope you enjoy bluelight.
 
generally speaking, you'll be just fine as long as you don't overdo it. just play it by ear. the apap/alcohol generally won't damage your liver unless this is a common practice over time.

but i agree with baybex...the alcohol will just diminish your opiate high. what i like to do is experience the opiate high until it's worn off and i get tired and groggy. then i might have a couple of glasses of wine and pop a benadryl just before bed. works like a charm.

before you do any of this...KNOW YOUR TOLERANCE. i can't stress it enough. if not, you'll wake up with tubes up your nose, puking charcoal.

The part about the APAP/alcohol generally not damaging your liver is not true. You generally don't die (although its possible) from doing this one time, but it definitely damages your liver.
 
As everyone else said, yes, this is a terrible idea.

Mixing opiates and alcohol kills many unsuspecting people. Just don't do it.
 
This should only apply to hardcore binge drinkers. If you already drink heavily, then you can't possibly expect things to go good on opiates, provided you are already in danger...
 
Okayy well thanks I guess ha. I've taken these perks before, just not with drinking. And my tolerance for both is high I guess, I just didn't know about them together. But not mixing them sounds like a good idea based on all the responsessss.
