Using codeine recreationally?

Sometimes I get a dodgy pain in my stomach/chest and my mother (who knows hardly anything about drugs) sometimes gives me some solpadol which is 30mg codeine phosphate/500mg paracetomol. And today I received some and it occurred to me as to how I can use this recreationally and my question is, what would be a decent dosage for me?

I have taken 2 tablets of solpadol several times just for this one off pain I get once every few weeks or so and once I have done this I don't need them for many weeks and usually have a few left at my disposal, I have 8 of them now.

I have read a bit online about using codeine recreationally and it was said about
150-250mg will get you pretty high and feeling good with euphoria.

How much do you guys think I should take for my first recreational dosage?

Andy.
 
Having used codeine on 3 occasions, (125~mg - cold water extraction method) I found it to be a subtle yet relaxing high.
Weed is a great potentiator of the effects, and smoking a few bowls really adds to the experience. I plan on dosing around 200mg codeine next time. :D
 
Don't start using opiates recreationally if you want to get pain releif from them.

^I would only do this once, so I don't think my tolerance would be that bad that I wouldn't feel the pain relief anymore, or am I wrong?

And what is this extraction stuff all about, I have a read a little bit about it, but I don't fully understand. What if I just literally took a few of the pills instead of this so called "extraction"?
 
You can use the recreationally till your tolerance builds up. Then you can use them recreationally but have a high/sick ratio of 80/20. I think about 100mg is a good starting dose. The ceiling is around 400mg
 
I used 50mg of codeine 3 separate times & got a decent high all 3 times. It would have lasted longer if I would have taken more at the same time. High only lasted about an hour each time.
 
^I would only do this once, so I don't think my tolerance would be that bad that I wouldn't feel the pain relief anymore, or am I wrong?

Many people say this yet few people manage to do it. Don't fool yourself. If it is good, you will do it again. This applies for any drug. Your tolerance won't change from doing it once, but you're getting these things for free from your mom. Why would you not do it again?

If you want a mild opiate feeling and don't want to get a codeine tolerance, give kratom a try. It can legally be bought online. I just had some and I'm feeling great =D

^This gave me a little lul :D, but yeah I know what you mean, but if it doesn't effect my tolerance all that much then ;)

^Kratom? Can you elaborate with this substance such as how much I should take to feel a decent high for my first time, how to take it etc..? I may buy some online just for fun if you recommend it.
 
A cold water extraction gets rid of the extra tylonal in the pills, cuz you dont want to fill your live with grams of that stuff. you can find how to do a CWE all over the internet. but I would look for something more than codeine to get my rocks off

^Yeah I did a cold water extraction yesterday, I know I didn't do it perfectly/correctly, but I know I got most of the shit out of it, I used about 120mg codeine and it felt pretty good, felt like when I have to pills, but stronger, was a nice feeling.

Thanks for the help guys.
 
30/500 are pretty common pills, and what I started with.

Keep in mind, the pull of addiction from these creeps up on you. Yes, you can get proper WD's from a serious addiction to codeine.

It's metabolised from Codeine to Morphine in your liver, on the order of about ~10%, but that's not an exact science: your bodies makeup will change this. In addition, some people lack the enzyme to convert it to morphine in any decent amount, and don't get many if all recreational effects.

Now, the paracetamol is something you need to watch out for. It's not a very kind drug in terms of bodily damage; indeed, paracetamol overdoses are life-threatening.

30/500, I'd suggest a 120mg dose. You can safely take 2000mg of paracetamol in one go, provided you don't have any existing liver damage.

If you are opiate naive, and wish to just once catch a buzz and see what the fuss is about (snigger), then I'd suggest swallowing 4 of the pills and relaxing.

Don't mix other depressants (think: alcohol, benzodiazpeines and the like) with it, as opiates cause severe respiratory depression in large doses.

Basically, use your head! It's a fun drug, but be careful. Codeine is the drug that lead me down my dark path into full blown Oxycodone addiction at age 18. I'm still not free of that pull.

Oh, one last thing: codeine causes a large histamine reaction, more so than any other opiate in my experience. Now, some will tell you to take an antihistamine, but if you do please steer clear of the first-generation sedative type. Basically, if you're going to, take a Zyrtec or something similar about half an hour before your dose. It'll help, otherwise you're likely to scratch like crazy. Luckily for me I already suffer from severe eczema (and asthma) so I'm used to histamine overloads ;)
 
^Thanks for this C Tripper, this is real good info and mostly just wanted to know if I COULD swallow all four pills at once, I will do this tonight and let y'all know how it goes.

I also have asthma and used to have eczma.
 
Hehe. Our bodies simply hate histamines ;)

Now, keep in mind that you do not want to be regularly downing 2 grams of paracetamol: your liver won't cope. It's not exceedingly dangerous, but it's certainly not good either!
 
^Doesn't it suck to have asthma xD.

I will take your advice and will only do it once tonight as I will be trying kratom some time soon I suppose anyways. I was mostly worried about my liver which is why I I tried the CWE yesterday.
 
Indeed. Mind you, I've done some stupid things regarding codeine/paracetamol/ibuprofen in the past, but you really REALLY want to learn from my mistakes. Trust me on that -_-
