Opioids snorting vs eating oxycodone?

[goaskalex]

i apologize if this has already been asked before, but i couldn't find anything on it. i have a friend over and we just copped a couple perc 10s. i usually crush them up and snort them, but she asked about the bioavailability of snorting versus eating them, and i honestly have no idea. i don't usually get oxy, but we wound up with these instead of smack.

is it actually worth it to snort them, or would we be just as well off eating the pills?

It's personal preference, some find the faster onset from snorting is worth the reduction in overall BA. The most effective way to dose oxycodone remains oral though.

Used to love snorting the 20mg oxynorms (IR).
Especially mixed with ketamine lol

Man, I love snorting my meds but Oxycodone alone is one thing, however percs have Tylenol in them and that is not something you want up your nose IMO! I know there are posts on here about methods to remove the Tylenol (cold water extraction I believe it's called). Check it out if you think you may want to go that route but I wouldn't put it up MY nose. Good luck!
