Quick Question About OP Oxycontin (I know, I know)

[Leica]

So long story short:

I went to get some Opanas tonight (to try for the first time)

and the person had oxycontin 10s (OP unfortunately)

I remembered reading something about these a long time ago, but I couldn't remember anything about it, and I had no cell service... (Dang AT&T)

anyways, I know the mods are gonna nail me hard for this, but pleeeaase answer my question before you slam me against the wall and close this thread:


if I normally take about 40-60 mg of oxycodone (IR) to feel good, what would I need to do with these 10 OP? (I have 18 of them)

Now before you all nail my balls to the wall, I have been reading like crazy and there is just TONS of info on this and I just wanted something really updated...

can I take just 2-3 normally (no chewing nothing)? and feel ok?

thanks, please don't be too mad at this post... I've been here for awhile (CheGuevara, couldn't ever get my password sent to me after I forgot it)....

thanks... just trying to quickly do a little harm reduction here...

I would double-check this just to be sure, but to my knowledge, oxycontin releases one quarter of its oxycodone every two or three hours. So, if the pill were 80 mg, for example, then 20 mg would be released every two or three hours. Being that these are 10 mg, then it would be 2.5 mg released every two or three hours. If you normally take 40 - 60 mg of IR oxycodone to feel good, well then you can do the math.

Now that I've finished writing this post, I have a funny feeling that I may be very, very wrong, but I do remember reading this somewhere. Someone with greater knowledge should chime in soon, I hope...

I am above the mods and I'm not mad. You're fine.

You normally take 40-60mg orally IR to hit where you want? I would say if you're taking the whole pills intact, you'd want to double that and you'll be high for 8-12 hours instead of 4-6.

Your other option is to try to defeat the abuse-proof measure... I have no experience here but there is a lot of info in Other Drugs about this.

thanks for the quick response and thanks Cane for being cool, I have read sooo many posts on here that get closed so fast... I really have been reading non-stop for over an hour, there is SO much info out there, but it's not really detailed... Hard to explain, but I really appreciate you being cool, thanks again...

^ I'm being 'cool' SINCE you did research what was out there and asked something you couldn't find an answer to. That's all we ask. If you can't find the information (and it's not violating the guidelines) your thread SHOULD be left open.

I wouldn't take my word as gospel, I'd hold off and hear from some people with more knowledge and experience first. In the future if your threads do ever get closed, please feel free to PM a moderator with a link to the thread and make your case. If you're respectful we'll at least hear you out and if you have a good case, certainly reopen it. If you ever have any mods you think are acting unreasonably, PM me and I'll handle them

Cane is right on the money. Doubling the OP dose always works great for me.

Just a quick question...are you taking the Oxy IR's orally or using another ROA?

 

[Leica]

I was taking the Oxy IR orally...

so how many OP 10s should I take at once?

I have taken only one 10 OP tonight and some ambien because I'm too tired to research more on the topic and I'm hoping by morning come, some good info will be on here...


can't I just take more pills and it will work that way?

thanks!

May be a stupid question, but why don't you just defeat the time-release on the OPs? That way you can be specific with your dose. It takes a bit more effort than with the OCs (thankfully we still have the old ones here in Canada), but it might be worth it in your case.

I don't think you should mess with the OP's like trying to beat the time-release ect. Cause if you mess up in doing so the pill will be useless.... even if you try to snort it, it turns into a gel and if you crush it up the active chemical becomes inactive. At least that's what I've heard and has proven to be true. So I would take double the amount you usually take but then again maybe a little less and then move up the dosage. That would be a smarter/safer move and then if it's not hitting you as much pop some more until you feel good.
