Let's say I ate some hydros and the high is now wearing off.
What is the best way to get it back up (or is it even possible)?
Taking more hydros (wouldn't it be kind of a waste?)
Benzos/weed?
Or would taking potentiators work?
Lets keep responses to oral hydrocodone or any potentiators, i don't want to hear IV some tar and plug morphine even though I realize that would work lol.

Thanks for any answers

Smoking bud would probably help some but you can't really get an opiate high back and potentiators are only good beforehand. Trying to take more and get high again is just a waste and ups your tolerance.
 
So potentiators won't work post consumption?
That was my understanding but just making sure.
Or would they just work much less, or only certain ones work (like DPH or something)?

In an unrelated note, why does Chrome red underline potentiator? Is it not a real word?
 
I was thinking maybe bud, DPH, and either clonazepam or etizolam might bring back a nice high (I know I won't be able to replicate the previous high, just looking to keep a pleasant high going that I normally wouldn't be able to achieve had I not taken opiates earlier).
 
out of my experience cannabis can really bring a opiate high back if its fading, i mean you must still be on the opiates though. For me if i took some hydrocodone, the high would generally last 4-6 hours, so if i smoked weed around the 3rd to 5th hour it would bring back a lot of the feeling. I also believe weed is one of the best potentiators of opiates, for instance if i took a dose of an opiate but only took enough took keep withdrawals at bay but not enough to really feel it smoking some herb would make me feel it and sometimes it would make me even nod of a dose that without the ganja i wouldn't really even be feeling. The problem with ganja is it also makes you high and kinda changes the flavor of the opiate buzz lol
goog luck brother
o yeah and opiates seem to be much more effective (and tolerance raises much slower) if you wait til you are completely off your last dose, like 8-10 hours after you dosed on hydro. Re-dosing is almost always disappointing unless you do a lot more but then of course you are escalating your tolerance.
god i am rambling lol, i just snorted 15mgs of oxymorphone and i am really surprised im feeling because ive been on sub for the past three weeks I did 3mgs earlier today and 2mgs daily for a couple days before that so im really really happy and surprised that just 15mgs worked!! its not as strong as it would have been but its still strong ;)
 
Opiates are pretty good with redosing which is why they are recklessly addictive. Weed will increase the high also. Benzos will dull the opiate high but increase the sedation... a bad trade if you ask me.
 
If you haven't performed a cold water extraction, redosing more hydrocone would be unwise due to APAP hepatoxicity (well, it'd be okay so long as you stayed within the daily limits, but redosing opiates is a bad habit to get in to). I think cannabis would be the preferred (and certainly the healthiest) option.
 
well i went for a number of potentiators, weed, and some benzos.
potentiators did nothing
weed way over powered it
once benzos hit they made me so fucking sleepy.

Next time, a little bid of bud will be the best I would think.
 
i wish i could still get high off hydros. when are the damn high dose hydros with no APAP going to hit the streets??
 
weed will bring back the high as long as its pretty soon after i dosed, benzos will potenate it.

also, alcohol. i plugged a 15 at like 7pm (its 3:25am here) and i woke up and drank a bunch of liquor at 2:30 and it brought back the oxy feeling a little bit but its gonna be alcohol im feeling i would think since i drank as good amount that would overpower the oxy.
 
for potentiators to help you need to take them before, but a benzo or more hydro would probably help well. next time you take hydrocodone, drink a glass of orange juice and take a benadryl with dph 30 minutes before the hydro to get a nice boost

orange? or grapefruit?

No offense frontbluntt, but this is a pretty pointless thread from a harm reduction stand point... we aren't here to help you get higher, hah. It's pretty much common sense that if you want the feeling back from hydros... you take more hydros..
