Best way to dose?

[SKipper]

I would be classified as a fairly new oxy user. I used hydro for a few years before jumping into the world of oxy, now I can't go back to hydro.

I need some good advice from the vets. Here is currently my dosing schedule:

20-30 mg early, just when I wake up
60-80 mg around 10
80-100 around 4.
That basically adds up to 2 1/2 to 3 80s/day

My high on the first dose lasts about 30-45 minutes, the second is probably an hour or maybe a little more, then the final dose gives me a pretty good high until bed.

Any suggestions on getting and KEEPING a high for most of the day? My supply is no more than 3/day

I just find myself getting grumpy when I come down and know that it will be a while before I can go again

To each their own. No one can tell you how YOU will react to a certain dose, taken in a certain manner. If I were you, I would take my largest dose in the morning, as the first dose of the day tends to be the most euphoric, not to mention safest, since there are very few accumulated active metabolites to add to OD potential. If you are looking for legs, eat them. Use them the way they are intended to be ingested.
If you find a way to stay high all day from snorting/shooting, let us know! I am sure everyone here would love to find a way to stay high all day on oxy, while only dosing 3 times a day.

You can try potentiation via CYP enzyme inhibition (3A4, 2D6), but oxycodone has a very high oral bioavailability, so it won't do much, and will probably hinder the metabolism to oxymorphone.

I have always found smoking (mj) potentiates quite well, giving the high a perceived longer duration.

[SKipper]

Thanks for the advice. I will try taking more in the morning after a eat my fruit. I have also started taking Wellbutrin, been on a week and it is a nice mood lifter for the blahs

*sigh* I wish I could get ahold of a j, before I moved I always had access to some great mary jane, now though I don't know any1 down here :(

Planning on taking a trip back home soon, gonna stock up on some kb's and then I'll see how great these oxy's can get :D

[frankie]

How are you taking the oxy? I take mine both orally and by snorting. Here's by breakdown, part of the reason I taking part orally in the morning and and night is so there's always something in my system, and by doing so I'm not needing it as bad. Also my lungs don't hurt the next morning because I smoke about a pack a day.

Morning - Snort 40mg, swallow 20 mg

Noon - Snort 40 mg at lunch

Before going home - Snort 60 mg

After dinner - Snort 60 mg, swallow 20mg right before I sleep.

[ndoftaworld]

theOne,

What mg oxy's are your prescribed? Looks like 20mg, but just wondering.

I get prescribed 80mg's 3x daily. I use a pill cutter to cut them in halves and quarters. It's not an exact science on the mg's when cutting, but I've been doing it for so long it's pretty close to being to the dosage everytime.
If I did my procedure with twenties, that would mean my doctor is prescribing me 12 twenties daily! lol.

[roxi*stardust]

What form of Oxycodone are you taking, OxyContin or Oxy IR? What is the ROA? In other words are you snorting or swallowing the pills.

If you are taking OxyContin my advice would be to take 1 tablet (80mg, I say this because you mentioned 80s in your OP) and break it into 4 seperate but equal lines. In the morning I would snort one line as a pick me up, at the same time I would swallow WHOLE an 80mg tablet; that should last 6-8 hours and keep you for having the "jones" or the lows because you will achieve a steady plasma state after the first day or two of doing this. Then with the other 3 lines, you could use those towards the end of your day to combat any w/d or "jones". If that isn't working I would suggest taking another 80mg about 8-10 hours after the first one that you swallowed WHOLE, then just use no more than 2 lines from that one you broke into lines.

The reason you have ups and downs and jones for the pills is because you blood level is rising and falling to often from your ROA. Taking the tablet as directed will get you a steady state and you can use another crushed up to bump yourself up. Oxycodone has a short half-life, not a bad a Fentanyl, but still what I call the Crack of opiates. Long acting opiates can help curb your use. I have used the methods above, as well as taken methadone or VERY small doses (0.25-0.5mg) of Bupe to prevent the ups and downs. All methods I have tried work well to prevent the lows you are experiencing. Granted you may not get as HIGH this way but I can guarentee you this; you will feel good all day.

Wow, that sounds like my dosing routine , like 5 years ago.......You will quickly climb the oxy ladder, so be prepared, before you know it you will be doing 6 a day. Grapefruit juice and Tagamet all the way baby!!! Worked great for me, intesifies (sp) and increases duration....

[OxyQueen]

My pillz definitely last me ALOT longer when i have some weed.
a nice joint tops off the dose perfectly. Definitely a potentiater!!!!
Adds a nice glow to the buzzzzzz

[Manowar]

Not to get off topic here but let me ask a question. If my normal dose to get me feeling good is 30mg of IR, what amount of time release can I take orally to get that same feeling? and would that same feeling last much longer cuz its sustained time release?

[ndoftaworld]

Prolly need the same, 30mg CR, definitely won't last the whole 12 hrs. like it says, but you might get 4-6 hours of good feelings.

Don't know, besides Percs, I've never been on IR.

<My keyboard/mouse is tripping out, I can't go back in the text, or even use the arrow keys to move up/down... weird>

[Chicago]

I'm sure you can go to the local pub & ask around, m.j is so common you probally be suprised how easy it is to find at bar/pubs.
Never hurts to try.:cool:just be kool!!!

Hmm, yeah.

This Friday night I'll head into Austin and hit up a couple of bars, stoners are usually easy to point out, and I'll dress for the part too :D

[Dances with Smack]

Yea, Austin's got a pretty cool scene, and smoke should not be very hard to find.

Drugs aside, anyone know the best area/bars to hit up for a early twenties guy w/ SAD? haha, that sounds fucked up, I mean that's not usually crammed with people, but those that are there are pretty cool?

[jdub]

6th street?

I am not a local but that street in Austin is known for nightlife. Great live music scene in that city.

SRV anyone?

Why is that? (It doesn't really matter I guess...) I remember during high school days, no matter what it was it got better and sometimes, it, the weed, seemed to bring an entire (from something else,) high back for an encore.



^^If you can't find weed in Austin I would suggest you leave the state entirely.

Haha, it's not that i can't find it, it's the whole having the balls to walk up to someone and ask. I've always had and shared, and became friends that way. Down here, I know... no one. It sux for me making friends, especially when I don't live in Austin, so I'll only be there for a short time. I'll quit bitchin' now :)

Haha. Sound advice. You just gotta put some effort into it and you shall succeed!

Mary seems to do that with a lot of chemicals, not just opies. Its rejuvenating effects can also be noted after shrooms or rolling.

[Russellmeboy]

Holy 80's batman! you all must have some serious chronic condtitions, im curious to what they are.....? anyone...? i started doing dope because i couldnt afford the oc (used to be about 50$ an 80 on a good day) so i cant fathom ever having 3 for myself in a day, yall lucky bastards..love you all and your great advice and such, thanks - Russell

[ndoftaworld]

I'm only on 10's so far, and the w/d's from THOSE are horrible, I can't imagine trying to go two weeks without 80's cause I splurged right after a refill.

How do you manage to get such an amount of OxyContin? It is clearly stated on the box and the Patient Leaflet that OC is a 12 hour drug to be taken twice daily at most; that is rigorously enforced here in the UK - it is simply not possible to get any more than two tablets per day prescribed. Any problems with breakthrough or tail-ending is dealt with by way of a 30mg dihydrocodeine to cover the time when the OC has stopped working (yes, I find that it only lasts around eight or nine hours too).
As for a 'high', I think that after you've been on OC for more than a couple of weeks, tolerance is such that you'd have to take a bucketful to get any sort of opiate high. I just feel normal, but pain-free. Even if I take 200mg...

That is not the case anymore. OxyContin is FDA (USA) approved for 3x a day dosing; after it was discovered that it does not last the full 12 hours for most patients.

Ha! I'm having some delivered to me, by my sis. Isn't family great :) A few years ago she wouldn't touch the stuff now that's her DOC. Sweet.

Poor girl, you should have warned her!! I'm always telling people, if they aren't addicted yet to stop now while they can because they have NO IDEA what they are in for. So far no one has listened...;:( except maybe my little brother. I have given him strong warnings.

When are ya supposed to be swinging through ATX?

I'm around the area and a mcguyver when it comes to finding certain things :D

[Armegeddon73]

I am currently prescribed 60 oxy 20mg ers and 60 0xycodone 10mg IR per month for back pain. I also treat my depression and anxiety, along with celexa, anafranil, welbutrin, clonazepan, with my opiates. As a rule, I chew 1 20mg er in the morning, as this is when both my physical and emotional pain is the most acute, and then simply follow up with 1/2 of a 10mg ir as needed ( either for back pain or emotional/well being pain). This is how I dose.

PS. Never run out, and actually have stashed some for a rainy day. Much love.
