Does an OC really last the full 12 hours?

[limitless_euphoria]

Let's say one took an OC at 1 pm (give or take 10 mins), is it possible by 6:30-7 pm not to feel the effects of it any longer? I mean it's there just that seems just way too soon for it to "fade" if you will? 9-10 pm would seem a little more fair. 1 AM would be what I would expect! Or does the duration differ with tolerance? I'm confused-ed, 'splain it to me someone!

you took it as directed??? you have to figure, if taken as directed, you are only getting a little amount of oxy at a time....so while, you may get pain relief, or get your w/d taken away....you probably wont get high, unless you take some immediate release shit on top of it....but thats just a thought, I have never taken an oxy as directed......what mg was it, how much do you normally do? etc....and who knows if the pills disperses the drug on an even time scale.....anyways, chew that shit up, or snort it.......fuck time release.

i don't believe that stuff about it being time release i've tried doing oc every way possible it always seems to gets me high for about 4-6 hrs if i eat them or snort them or iv them then maybe half that time, dose also dosent seem to matter if i do 40 or 80 or 160mg, it dosent seem to last me much longer, i'd rather keep at around 40mg every dose. morphine always seems to last longer for me than oxy does. i think that if ur taking them as directed, its better to leave the color coating on, it probably stops your stomach acid from eating up any of the oxy before u can absorb it..

theyre not going to last an exact 12 hours, and yes given your tolerance the effects will begin to fade towards he fag end. time release is not perfect. the 12 hours is an estimate of how long it will last. the measurement can never be perfected. thats why though the fentanyl patches are supposed to last 3 days, many ppl here complain about them only lasting 2. its like the car companies saying that their ford will run 150,000 miles no problem, but it breaks down in 120,000. pharma companies want to sell drugs. if that means advertise to last 12 hours, so ppl dont have to take 4 pills a day, only 2, then they go right ahead.

I guess I just have a speedy metabolism because 12 hour pills never last 12 hours or even 8 it seems. I have a fully-functional liver and lots of stomach acid. They give me vicodin and it's usually q6h and if I were to take one at 12 pm I'd be lucky if I still felt anything by 3-3:30 pm. The pain relief/buzz peaks around 1:30-2:00 pm and that's it. Yet other people, they take a vic/perc at 10 AM and they're still stoked at 4 in the afternoon. It just sucks because doctors would much rather give you pills to take every 6 hours than every 4 hours probably because of the whole DEA and the tail-between-the-legs stance. Anyone else feel like me? What's the answer, enzyme inhibitors (grapefruit juice - tagamet)? My doc/aprn have already been nice but the vicodin does not last no damn 6 hours a pop. And as I've said, it's not like I've been taking it for months or even weeks. Perhaps once one has done hard opiates one will never be able to fair well with Sched. III's or something? Just wondering.

I'm just like you, yet even worse because I've had chronic ulcerative colitis since I was 19, had whole, yes entire colon taken out in 94, then in 95 I got another lovely stay in the hospital but for only a week on the happy button, when they did the modern "j pouch" surgery, they make pouch out of small intestine and hook it up to your rectum, thing that sucks is my metabolisim is like you sound like, I take vicodin(back when it was glowing good for me) and it would last me 3 to 4 hours max, even at that, I was starting to dull out an hour before I would get home and rush to the bottle and gulp down 4 or 5 of them lovely little blue oval footballs.

Same with 170mg of methadone I'm currently on, everyone on here must think holy shit thats alot, but I just took my dose now at 8 am, takes about an hour to feel good, peaks for another hour or two if i'm lucky. By 10 or 11 am, I'm starting to feel tired and a little ambitionless. I have to take a nap around 2 pm and by 3 or 4 pm, the done is basically history. Thank god I am scribed valium 10mg 2 of em twice a day, otherwise I would probably wd in the night, because when I wake up to take my take homes or struggle to get outta bed and fight the damn chicagoland traffic to get to the done clinic only 8 miles from me. I'm already aching and a little nose running by then.

But as my doctor at the done clinic said, it will never, at least now to be able to keep you opiated with an opioid like done 24 hours, due to your metabolisim etc, you are our toughest case here. All I keep hopeing for is to start making some damn money, ebay sucks cuz I just have junk to sell, can't work cuz of disability issues. If I can finally get some money comin in, I can't wait to order a boatload of pods, so I can cuppa up around 4 pm and keep the glow going. I was doing that when I first started at the clinic, that was until the beginning of this year when the damn idiots raided the best and last only rop I was getting my watsons from to keep me going through 4 pm through the night.

no way, 8 tops, and im almost 100% sure on that one

I have a choice, my doc gives me for either fent patches 75ug or oxys, I always choose fent because it's my DOC, but I got written my oxys TID or three times a day,

[9177]

Well, I think your metabolism,shape of your liver, tolerance, and other shit makes a big difference in how long oxy lasts.

[Synack]

No, check the patent...I believe it's only something like 20% of the pill that is left to be released within the last 4 hours or so.

[limitless_euphoria]

Thanks for your feedback guys.

I guess in order to have fun you have to either:

Have an assload of whatever your using OR use an ROA they did not intend for you to e.g. IV, PR, parachuting, intranasal etc.

Wouldn't it be cool if you could take this drug (unlike narcan that makes you sick if you have opiates in you) that would make you totally opiate naive again? OMG it would probably sell on the black market for a higher price than most street drugs. That would be fucking awesome. To make each use just like your first. :)

8hrs max if taken as directed

Right on. In my experience OC taken as directed last 8 hours max. It was recnetly apporved by the FDA to be given 3 times a day if the doctor feels it neccesary. It's perfectly legit to get it RX'd to you T.I.D. (3x a day), my hubby got his this way. It's really up to the doctor, some will not go fo it

[reddragon3668]

Yea, the last time I was on Oxy, years ago, it was scripted 3xs daily. Its a decent drug for pain relief and gives a nice jolt of energy. But I found that the valleys made me moody as hell. My wife and I were dating at the time and she said it was like clock work. It really spanned the whole dose. I dunno, I think there are much better time release drugs out there.

I asked for TID once, and it got me a lower dose, fuck. It did get me TD though, just lower. Back to the fent patches I went...
