There is no ceiling dose for narcotics, it depends on the individual's tolerance level. Tolerance levels can go up and up. First time users MIGHT be able to tolerate a small amount before vomiting and lessened consciousness occur, and truly lethal dose could be anything, depending on many factors. Again, it all depends on your body. Chronically ill patients, or oxycodone abusers, for example, have built tolerance over time. Think of it like alcohol. The first time someone has a drink, they catch a buzz quick, but over time, they need more and more. ADDED: The original answer was edited and the question 'locked' to further contributions due to the mention of dosage amounts which were deemed to be too specific, too much information, and which could possibly prove harmful.

What is the difference between oxycodine and oxycontine?

First, I'm assuming you are referring to Oxycodone (Oxycodine is a common misspelling of Oxycodone). To answer your question they are the same drug... Oxycontin contains Oxycodone, the only difference being that Oxycontin is designed as a time-released version of Oxycodone over 8-12 hours. Oxycontin pills go as high as 160mg per dose. That is why people overdose so easily on Oxycontin when they are chewed up and swallowed or crushed to snort/inject. The high dose hits them all at once rather than being released over several hours. This can be very lethal unless the individual has already been taking the drug for a while and their body has built a sufficient tolerance to it.

How long does oxycodone show up in a ua?

The half-life of oxycodone is 3-5 hours. In other words, this is the amount of time required for the body to remove 50% of a single oral dose. The specific answer to this question will depend on the size of the dose, number of doses taken, and sensitivity of the drug screen. As this information was not provided in the question, it is impossible to provide a complete answer. Note, however, that as oxycodone is a prescription drug, we assume you have a valid prescription. As part of the drug screen, you should be asked what drugs have been legally prescribed to you.


How lethal injection works?

A lethal injection is exactly what it's name is. It's a lethal dose of a harmful drug or something along the same line. An overdose of a certain drug can also be called a lethal injection. The lethal injection is injected into the arm or where ever on the person and there is so much of that drug (or it's poison) that it causes your heart to stop beating and you die.
