Experienced- (Xanax, Vicodin, Alcohol, Benedryl) - WHOA, nice, but DANGEROUS combo.

Ok this isn't going to be laid out exactly like a regular trip report, sorry, that's just not possible. I don't have enough coherent thoughts to be able to do it.

I'll just list events in the way it happened.


5pm
, took 2mg of Xanax (sublingual)
*nice relaxed feeling, but not QUITE enough*

6pm
took 1mg Xanax (sublingual) since 2mg wasn't doing it, and also took 22.5mg of Vicodin ( [3x] 7.5 Hydrocodone / 750 APAP) (Swallowed Straight-Up)

*Xanax finally gave me the 'mmmmmmmmm' feeling I wanted*

Had lunch somewhere around here (light lunch, just a small frozen pizza)

6:30pm (before original Vicodin dose kicked in), took another 7.5 Vicodin (this time using CWE because I didn't want to reach the 3g mark on the APAP), 50mg of diphenhydramine (funnily enough, did a CWE of 2 Tylenol PMs ;)). JUST (barely) starting feeling the original dose of Vicodin by this point... Also power chugged 2 strong (16.2 proof) Beers.

*Vicodin starts kicking in, not hugely strong, since it's half my normal dose, but definitely noticeable due to all the potentiators in my system, and I got some nice little mini-nods from it.

9 - 10 pm
: Drank one more beer (same proof as above).

11pm Ate a hearty dinner. (Chinese food with lots of protein, veggies, rice, crispy noodles, the works)
[Though my dog did end up eating my egg roll because I dropped it on the floor without realizing it :p]


11:30pm
drank one more beer.

12am - dozed off, warm, fuzzy, sleep

4am - Woke up, still feeling lingering effects from earlier, Drank 3 more (lower proof [11.8 proof] beers).

7:45am - Woke up, still a little fuzzy around the edges, but generally feeling pretty good.


Overall, not a bad combo, I really would have liked a little bit more Vicodin so I could have gotten a REAL nod, instead of the mini-nods I had, but If I did, then I would have cut back the alcohol too. Also wouldn't have taken as much Xanax as I did, but the first 2mg, while relaxing, just didn't effect me the way I expected, so I had to redose another 1mg.

Definitely not a bad combo, though most was just kinda on a whim, and giving how much beer I ended up drinking, I just wish I had done a CWE on all of the Vicodin rather than just the last pill. (When I took the first dose of Vicodin, I wasn't even considering adding alcohol to the mix..... I hate mixing alcohol and APAP)

but oh well, I don't think 2.2 grams of APAP is gonna do too much damage to me in the long run, as long as I don't keep it up.


Best part though? I never once blacked out, and I have No hangover, just a little groggy and sleepy, but I can live with that.

I must say it was a pretty good way to spend the afternoon / night.

all of your dosages seemed within reason, nice combo indeed, wouldn't think it would be too dangerous considering it sounds like you have some experiences with these substances...

the concept of a diphenhydramine cwe is funny to say the least,

you should try and format your trip reports "
Substance - Experience Level - Title" in the future

be safe homie

:-D

Yeah sorry about that, I was coming down and still feeling all warm and fuzzy, buzzy vibes, so, spelling and grammar weren't exactly as the top of my list

I'll edit it if I can .

Second edit: made it fit to forum mod rules.

When I saw this I immediately thought you OD'd. Nice work on the dosages that could've went horribly wrong if you took just a little more. Had a friend who Od'd on vicodin and alcohol alone a few weeks ago.
 
Maybe you should put this in trip reports. My favorite oaer of the report was "ate a hearty dinner- Chinese food-the words.
 
Omg you actually drink alcohol with APAP in your system?

Do you not care about your liver whatsoever? Wow man your poor, poor, poooor liver. I wouldn't want to have your liver right now.

My point is, you should think about your liver ;)
 
Interesting combo. Not something I'd wanna try, as I don't enjoy being drowsy AT ALL, but different strokes...

Thank God you were knowledgable about things like dosages and interactions, as this is probably one of the easiest ways to OD (mixing downers). All you were missing is Ambien and you'd have been in a REAL coma! ;)

Stay safe, and be careful about mixing APAP and alcohol in the future. Your liver will thank you.

Sorry for the random bump, but....

'Lady Codone', you dont like feeling drowsy, but your name just screams hypocrisy.
IMHO.

Jesus, I hate opiates. And yes, there is one.
Stoopid peopless
 
Just wanted to add my 2 cents:
Drinking with APAP in your system isn't that harsh on your liver, really (especially with only 3g of APAP in your system).
What really concerned me about the OP was that he took diphenhydramine as well. It was enough that he was already mixing 3 depressants (alprazolam, hydrocodone, and alcohol), but adding a 4th depressant (diphenhydramine) was an unnecessary danger. What was the point of adding the diphenhydramine? Most opiate users only add diphenhydramine to their mix to increase sedation, but you already had the alprazolam doing that for you. Unless you get really bad opiate-itches (a neutral side-effect which I personally enjoy) and wanted an anti-histamine to counter-act this, I just don't see what the point was. The effects of diphenhydramine aren't exactly 'enjoyable', much less are they recreational.

Furthermore, I could never understand why so many people like mixing depressants. It's not like it adds to the euphoria. Unless you like sitting by yourself, too intoxicated to move or think, then what's the point? Opiates by themselves are far more euphoric without benzos or alcohol - and alcohol by itself is more euphoric without benzos or opiates. And benzos are truly best for what physicians prescribe them for: getting rid of anxiety. I've found benzos to be the most recreational when I use them to help with a stimulant comedown (particularly amphetamine). If you're not using them to thwart a panic/anxiety attack, using them to halt a psychedelic trip, or using them for a stimulant comedown, then they have very little recreational value.

Nice combo though but you have to be to be mixing prescription drugs, vicodin and alcohol . It doesn't matter what combination you are concocting, any one you mix with alcohol could end up being Lethal. Try warm milk, or hot cocoa. Relax to some quite music for a bit. Read a good book till your sleepy. I know it sounds corny, but its better than your nice but a little bit risky idea.
I wish you well and get some sleep. Feel Safe always.
Good day..

This is a good report. And it sounds like your approach to taking this combo was as safely and responsibly done as one could hope for, albeit the whole alcohol and tylenol thing.

To be honest, the best "high" that I have ever experienced is when I took some oxycodone, drank some alcohol, and took some klonopin. But it's a dangerous combo, for sure, and it's not something that I would ever recommend; they're all depressants, and one can overdose quite easily. I've seen it happen... :(

Furthermore, I could never understand why so many people like mixing depressants. It's not like it adds to the euphoria.

But it does add to the euphoria. Believe me, I've taken all the substances by themselves. I've taken oxycodone, clonazepam, and alcohol all by themselves and of course in different combinations... oxycodone and clonazepam, oxycodone and alcohol, alcohol and clonazepam, etc.

It was an altogether different experience and a more euphoric experience as well the one time I had taken all three of those substances together. I can't tell you what science lies behind it, and I can only hypothesize, really, but it was different and more euphoric...

That being said, it's still not something that I would ever recommend. It's incredibly, unbelievably dangerous.

Mid 40's and been an alcoholic for the last 20 years. Very functioning alcolic- never. Missed a day of work, make a tremendous living and no DUI's. Given .5 Xanax about 6 months ago for some flying anxiety. Took and felt great. Got more. Already take some Prozac for anti anxiety. So here is the question: I am a big dude 215 lbs. lot of drug history 15-20 years ago. Go through 15-20 coor lights a night. Have a great, healthy liver and feel pretty sober when I go to bed. Obviously not, but definitely not stumbling around the house.

Now, started taking higher dosages of Xanax and snorting some. Brought back some good memories of my old coke days. Would never get back to that due to high BP , but my question is, "What is safe?". Can I have 15 coors light s and snort 2 - 4 mg of Xanax and wake up in morning ??? I have so far, but there are far more educated and knowledgeable people out there. Thoughts???
 
I remember when I tried this exact combo; 2 shots vodka, 15mg hydrocodone, 2mg alprazolam, 50mg DPH. I'm really sensitive to the effects of xanax by itself, so you can imagine how high I was.
 
About to do this myself with 2 Vicodin 5s, 1mg Clonazepam which I'm prescribed and some shots of Dr. Mcgullicutties, but I do have experience with benzos and opiates, so far its quite nice and just about time to drop my clonazepam with a shot, will keep informed
 
Well, about an hour in, the Vicodin and Clonazepam are fully kicked in, with 2 single shots of liqueur, and a doubleshot, and I feel awesome, but to newcomers of both benzos (Klonopin, Xanax, Ativan) or any kind of opiates, be careful with this combo, my tolerance for both benzos and opiates is moderate, so I feel comfortable, but ones with hardly any tolerance to either may feel uncomfortable
