Opioids Roxicodone or Oxycontin: What would you prefer?

Your question is not legit and that attitude of my life sucks so I will abuse meds is lame.Besides your going to go into further hell with an opiate addiction without dealing with the basis of your depression.Some peoples gave some great advice others just thinks its cools to have a legit script to abuse.Your only hurting yourself in the end, I have been down this path many times and even with chronic pain the depression/anxiety are finally in control even without SSRI's but a great therapist who helped me find my way.

whatever floats your boat.

Darkness, I wanna talk to you offline. Something you said here has absolutely sparked my curiosity and I need to ask you about it! I sent you a friend invite if you would please accept it for me, that would be swell! :-)

Roxicet is an oxycodone/APAP combo like percocet, and endocet.
oxycontin is a continuous release (CONTIN)form of oxycodone
roxycodone is an immediate release (IR) form of oxycodone.

THANK YOU! For the love of GOD I've been a newb for a year now ... IR this ... ROXI That ... I had no idea what the hell any of it meant really ... but in the HUNDREDS AND HUNDREDS of posts that I've read in the last year, this was in the to 10 percentile of posts that were actually useful!

Thank You!

personally i prefer roxis they are immediate release where as oxys are extended release. It makes no sense to fuck with an ER and have to chew that nasty stuff or crush it when you can just take an IR and not have to fuck with it. And why even bother with 15mg roxis? you can break a 30 in half if its too much for you.

OK, I hear you, but I suck the outer coating off the oxycontin, crush it, water it up ... slightly heat it (not to a boil), add cotton, suck it up and slam that shit. Are you telling me that a roxi out of the bottle will hit me differently than an oxy with its outer coating sucked off?

The topic at hand: roxi all day everyday. 90mg roxi is better to me than 120mg oc insuffalated.

Question 1) What the EFF does insuffalated mean?

Question 2) *Staring at the screen - eyes tearing up - wondering and asking in my best Tiny Tim voice* - "Please sir - where can I get MY roxi 90's?"

I'm tellin you what bro ... hold onto that friend of yours for as long as you can cause I have no effing idea how to get this shit other than to exaggerate my pain levels every month and gain the sympathies of the man with the prescription pad! And he aint anywhere NEAR givin me doses like that."

Something else I can't seem to figure out how to get and thats heroin. I'm a short haired businessman who looks NOTHING like a user ... so when I head to the park ... lookin to score ... those guys that hang out over there on a regular basis ignore me like the plague! So I have NO ... and I mean NO idea how to score. I wish there was a web site that taught people how to do that! ;-)

Back on topic here ... EVERYTHING I've read seams to point to the fact that heroin and opioids like oxy are damn near the exact same drug. Only difference being, Oxy is controlled, measured etc. so every damn pill is the same where heroin is a wild card and typically much more potent than oxy. If people would be smart and clean about their heroin use, they would NEVER OD on it, because the first time they picked up a new bag, they would hit that shit low and slow to see how it gonna hit em. Then when they know what it can do ... they can do what they need to do!

My theory is ... if I could get some heroin, I could balance it into my oxy use, then I could make those pills last longer every month. And NO, there is no way in hell I could become a nodding junkie who doesn't work or ignores his family. Speaking as someone who has been taking some kind of mind or mood altering substance on a fairly regular basis for the last 28 years without ever missing a day of work, or ever dropping a class when I was in college, I know I can control my doses and just get what I need when I need it. Not to mention ... anything worse, and my wife would see it ... and she'd know that something was up ... and she'd jump in my shit faster than I could say, "WAIT SWEETHEART ... ITS NOT WHAT YOU *THUMP*"

So if you're a snot nosed little brat who wants to click on the reply button right now to pass judgment on me, just know that I'll put you on ignore so fast, you'll feel a rumbling vibrate back into your fingers through your keyboard ... so don't even go there beeotch!

After going back and reading the last 3 pages i have to say that this thread should be closed.
Another thread full of useless stupid shit.

Both pills are the same drug.

Snorting is a poor way to use these pills.

If your crazy enough to say(and agree with) 90mg of oxycodone fucks you up more than 120mg of oxycodone then let it be said something isnt right. I dont mean with the drugs.

Stop arguing over fucking BRAND NAMES and start learning how to use your shit. I dont mean the drugs.

But DUDE! you live in CANADA!

NOTHING YOU SAY MATTERS HERE!

:-)

(all kidding aside) - you kinda said what I was thinking but I'm man enough to admit I don't have enough knowledge to say what you just said. But what you just said makes a whole lot of sense to me ... unless you consider the following:

The ONLY thing that might make me think that there is indeed a difference between the two - would be in the way the two pills are made. If Oxy's are time released, then logic tells ME that the entire pill is completely bound to the active ingredient with some kind of a material that slows the delivery process of the oxycodone through the intestines and into the blood stream, while the ROXIs would not contain those fillers / binders ... whatever you want to call them in order to get the oxycodone past the intestinal walls at a much higher rate of speed.

Some people seem to think that the coating on the outside of the oxycontins ARE THE ONLY DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE TWO ... but has anyone ever seen how quickly the outside of that pill comes off? There's no way in hell that the outside of that pill will stop anything because it will be gone half way down the pipe before it ever hits your stomach.

And here's something that most people might not know ... your body will not obsorb JACK SHIT until it gets past your stomach (well ... absorption rates in your stomach are something like 15% as opposed to the small intestines where you get all of your nutrition and the majority of your medication when taken orally) and into the small intestine. So that pill ... will be mixin up in with stomach acids for the better part of 30 minutes before it ever touches your small intestines. So with this in mind, I don't buy the idea that the outer coating on the oxycontin is the only defining characteristic of the drug that makes it time released.

And if i'm right, then Roxicodone will in fact hit you harder and faster than oycontin when swallowed ... but I'm not so sure about other forms of ingestion ... slamming is the first one where I think they would probably hit you the same since the time release binders in the oxy never even see an intestinal wall. But then those binders just might keep enough of the oxycodone out of your opiate receptors that it would be a weaker hit than the Roxi ... which is apparently NOT bound to any such chemical from which to slow the body's access to the main ingredient.

Does anyone feel me here? Am I onto something? Or am I just talkin out my ass?

Doesn't ANYONE in here shoot oxy besides me? Why the hell would you waste precious powder on a silly 'ol nasal cavity? Shooting HAS to be the ultimate rush with oxys over snorting ... I've NEVER snorted them, but it only seems logical that the best rush is the vein rush!

Anyone who's done both ... let me know please!


The best Roxi high I got was withdrawling from suboxone, 5 days in, I was sweating and smelled like shit. As soon as I got home I ran up stairs and tryed to wash the coating off, then realized there wasn't one.

I crushed it in about 30 seconds, snorted it, then about 1 minute later I had the strongest come up/rush that lasted for about 30 minutes followed by a mind boggling high. Then I was actually able to go to bed. Man I dont think there's anything better then taking one of these after withdrawling from suboxone. So that's how I got turned onto them. The best Oc's are the sixties, they have like no filler at all. So for me it's roxi 30's and the oc 60's. I got ten 15mg's OC's and they were the worst, like crushing metal and way to much filler. So those I only got because I was desperate, but the twenties are a big difference and they only have 5 more mg's. 15's are the worst. Anyone ever try a Oc 160?
 
I've been shooting oc lately its definitely the most intense way, but it doesn't last very long. I usually find myself with some w/d symptoms before I get to my next dose I think I'm gonna try eating them/snorting them.
 
I've been snorting roxi 30s for a couple of months now and I've eaten them before....is there any other way to get fuckked upp?? I've heard about shovin it into ur ass but idk bout that??
 
Sucking the outter coating off an OC does nothing except change its color. The time release is built into the pill, ie. waxy matrix or what-ever-the-fuck they do to those pills.

Take more. Putting it in your butt probably wont make it that much stronger. Also you might as well just eat them if its first thing in the morning because I find them to be stronger on an empty stomach than up your nose.
 
So you're telling me that if I crush up and shoot a 30mg Roxi or a 30mg Oxy, I will not be able to tell the difference between the two?

Why would you? They both contain 30mg of oxycodone.

I wouldn' t know though because shooting pills seems like a real good way to damage your body. I'll shoot dope, but not pills.
 
Hard to answer but.....

I really don't need this shit on top of everything else in my life - I thought people were nice on this site. I don't understand this site - there are millions of threads about getting high and not just harm reduction, but I ask people's preference on a drug and shit goes crazy. I just wanted to fucking discuss what people preferred regarding the two medications. I have literally seen hundreds of threads about illicit and licit drug use, including people glorifying them, asking for the best routes of administration, how to get the most of their high, etc. What the fuck did I do wrong or different? And whoever the fuck said I'm not in pain - fuck off (and learn how to spell) - just because my life has been shitty and I would primarily like to get a little buzz off my meds doesn't mean I have no pain.

Don't worry brother, I won't judge ya. I am the same. I have pain, but like to get high too. I have had every oxy under the sun including all generics and YES, I've had an oxy 160 that I bought for $25 years ago, BUT I've only had the little blue roxi 30s and between them, I would say the ROXI has the cleaner and more effective high, but the OC has that beautiful drip we have all come to love. Either way, they both become IR's if u peel em and insuffilate em. I would have to say if u like the drips, and the actual act of snortin shit, get the oxys. The 80s have more powder to keep ya busy. But if u just want a fantastic opiate high and something easy and quick to chew or snort, get the Roxi. Hope this helps man, and please be careful. Don't take too much, and try not to snort too much cuz its a worse addiction then swallowing in my opinion. Wd's are harder and come on quicker if u are used to sniffin em. have a good day brother. Be as safe as possible

roxi's are better in terms of euphoria and OXY is more synthetic FEELING (They are basically the same) roxi FEELs better to me.
 
Roxi is oxy. I still prefer them because they're IR which I think makes for a better high. I also prefer them because its less filler to snort which also equals better high.

This has been done.

Buckie we have a multi quote function. It takes up much less space.
 
The way it seems to go is people prefer roxis, become serious users, then prefer OC, then lose any preference and take whatever will keep them from being sick, since a single script never lasts more than a few days anymore.

Not criticizing... just my personal pattern which is identical to about 12 other people I know that doctor shop.

But really oxycodone = oxycodone. As long as you do the same number of mgs, and crush OCs, the difference is all in your head.

bingo. happened to me too, lol. Not much rhyme or reason f4r this, but its how it went down.

Yeah I don't know what everyone is talking about, no sucking the coating off a oxycontin doesn't get rid of the time release, but if you crush it down as fine as you can and snort more smaller line, than fewer big lines, the time release is gone and the extra filler doesn't matter when doing more little lines because more gets absorbed. Roxicodone and Oxycontin are the same drug one is going to feel more synthetic or anything like that, there might be subtle differences in the high but not enough to matter or really notice. And if there is a difference to you, it is prolly placebo. Because oxycodone=oxycodone lol
 
True oxy is oxy. When it comes down to people with 240+ tolerance I think the less filler is preferred. This seems to hold true with snorters and shooters IMO.

When I cop dude sometimes has oc and roxi. He never runs out of oc.

Like I said they are IR. I can quickly crush and snort 120mg and even pop a couple. What's not to like? Ya I can do that with oc but, not without a grinder (of some kind) and definitely not without gagging on all the powder. I got other shit to do and spending 20 minutes prepping oc and choking it down doesn't fit my schedule. Unless of course that's all I can get lol
 
This question has been beaten over the head in OD

but somehow this thread has made it to 5 pages so i guess its ok

I Prefer the 30mg IRs/ Roxis

but i rarely see them and i refuse to pay any more money (its usually just a slight increase but fuck em) just for the Roxies when i do see em

So i use 40s or 80s 90% of the time.

but i enjoy the Blues
 
Roxi's are easier to snort, easier to slam though that's not my thing, and while contin gives me a more sleepy and noddy high, Roxi's give me more of a feel-good energetic high where I feel like like I can run on clouds and jump on top of mountains. Though if I take a dose of Roxi that's 120mg or higher then I still start nodding, but contin still always gives me a more tired and sleepy nod while on Roxi's I just feel good and can snap out of it whenever I need to while still feeling good.

Roxi's are also much more popular than OC's here and though they're usually around the same price, OC's can be more expensive sometimes. For some reason the generic oxy's that don't even say OC on them but have a hard-as-fuck coating like the purple 40's fuck me up the most, I don't know why, even the generic 20's with the really hard coating still do more to me than both Roxi's and OC's. Maybe it's all a placebo effect because it is technically supposed to all be the same chemical, but I'm definately not the only person around here that from loads of experience believes that rock-hard generic oxycodone > Roxi > OC in terms of high.
