Stupid n00b question

Maybe its too obvious and I missed it, but where do I find a good comparison of morphine versus codeine versus methadone versus OC, etc.

morphine is a LOT stronger than codeine. 400mg of codeine might be comparable to say about 40mg of morphine. morphine IV'd is equal to methadone but methadone is much stronger than morphine orally. oxycodone in my opinion is a little less strong than methadone, though there are people that will argue that. methadone lasts signicantly longer than most other opioids.

Thanks. I guess my main interest is taking drugs orally. Needles, well I hate em. I'm also basically just self-medicating my depression and anxiety. That's what it all boils down to.
