So this wasn't even my GP, but a freaking SPECIALIST. Here are all the things he said in a 5 minute period:
1) He used the word "junkie"
2) "Dihydrocodeine is the same thing as codeine and the same strength"
3) "840mg DHC is the equivalent to 60mg Morphine"
4) "120mg Morphine is the equivalent to 90mg Methadone"
5) "Street Heroin is twice as strong as NHS (Pharmaceutical) Morphine"
I just....I...I...
Correct me if I'm wrong, but..
1) No professional should use that word
2) DHC is similar to, but different than Codeine, with different side-effects. It is also 2-2.5 times stronger depending on the individual
3) 840mg DHC is (roughly) the equivalent to 168mg Morphine
4) 120mg Morphine can be the equivalent of anywhere from 15-30mg Methadone, depending on the individual and dosage
5) NHS Heroin (Diamorphine) is twice as strong as NHS Morphine - Street Heroin is SIGNIFICANTLY weaker than NHS Morphine as it has been cut an average of 8-16 times before it reaches the user.
Honestly, this level of misinformation is frankly terrifying and could very well kill someone "Oh you take 120mg/day of oral morphine? He's a 90mg dose of Methadone"
