Immediate effects after taking morphine?

Morphine will provide relief from pain and gives the patient a sense of wellbeing. Opiates in general slow down breathing, heart rate and brain activity and as a result the body's tolerance to pain is increased. Morphine also suppresses the cough reflex which is why it is used to treat severe coughs. Morphine does have side-effects, two of the most common are constipation and nausea and with higher doses of morphine, additional drugs to relieve or prevent these symptoms may be needed.

Is morphine the same as roxycontin?

Yes Roxanol is the liquid form of Morphine Sulfate. You can only take it orally and it tastes like crap. Roxanol us ultra concentrated. 1ml has 20mg of Morphine in it. So becareful with it. As a nurse the usual dosage I give is 0.25-0.50 ml which is equal to 5-10mg of morphine.

Can you get addicted to methadone after using it twice?

Any addiction you might feel is purely psychological. It takes a lot more than 2 times to get a physical addiction. If you are doing it just to get high, I would advise against it. It may not have all of the physical side affects of heroin, but it can take you to the same place and make you just as much of an addict.

How many atoms in a morphine molecule?

Morphine's chemical formula is C17H19NO3. 17+19+1+3=40

Does mersyndol show up in drug tests?

Yes, it will show in a laboratorydrug and alcoholtest as an opiate. If you declare it, your test can be sent for a GCMS which will further identify the opiate as a doxylamine, and you will pass your drug test.

Is methadone more helpful for joint pain then oxycodone?

It all depends. Everyone is different. I have heard people that have had success with both medications for pain. It is all up to the individual and their own preference. Methadone and Oxycodone are different types of opiate drugs. Methadone is a very long lasting opiate but will not have as intense of a euphoric effect, which helps many people who need to function while on a pain-killer. Oxycodone is a much shorter acting and intense opiate. You will feel a much more euphoric effect and "high" than from methadone, but you will need more of the medication (multiple doses in a day).

How do you use Oxycontin to withdrawal from methadone?

You Don't. You are simply trading one opiate for another. Also, that would be incredibly pointless. There is a reason Drug programs offer METHADONE to get off of opiates and NOT oxycontin. That reason is simple, 1. Methadone lasts much longer than OxyContin and has much less euphoric effects, which helps people function better. 2, Methadone is MUCH cheaper than OxyContin and much more accessible, like at clinics. It makes absolutely no sense to take something even more powerful than the substance you are trying to withdrawal from (meaning OxyContin is much stronger in its euphoric effect). The best thing to do to withdrawal from methadone would be to taper off slowly like they do it at methadone clinics. But if you are switching drugs for pain management (going from methadone to Oxycontin), you will not really experience withdrawal symptoms. You will just feel slightly uncomfortable at first as your body makes the adjustment.

Are Oxycontin withdrawels worst than herion withdrawels. Can you get off Oxycontin by snorting herion for a week then try to get off the herion ultimately beating both?

Oxycontin and Heroin withdrawals are very similar..........Opiates are opiates...Your question works in theory, but not in real life....The only way that is possible to beat the Oxycontin the way you describe is to use Methadone for 3 to 4 days after stopping the Oxycontin............No more. Do not become addicted to Methadone, it is ten times worse than Heroin or Oxycontin withdrawals when you quit

What would happen if you mix magical mushrooms with methadone?

Probably not the wisest thing to do, as a deadly nausea can come over you from the mushrooms...eugh, it is so unpleasant, that the nausea quite spoils the prettiness of the visuals. And it was the psilocybin that made us nauseous, as methadone has been taken for many decades by one of us, and does not make us sick, but the addition of the pscilocybin....bleurgh. avoid.

Maybe just took too many. never again. Hell no.

Do test results show up the same if snorting pain pills?

Yes, even though they are not taken PO (by mouth), it will still be excreted in urine. It will not only show up as an opioid, it will also show up exactly what pill it is, (ie: oxycodone, morphine, vicodin, ect) snorting pills of any kind is highly dangerous. It can cause erosion of your septum, and nares, as well as pneumonia. Not judging, just informing.

Can you snort methadone?

Yes.

You can snort crack, but is illegal to possess and consume cocaine in any form.

Not true. You can, but you would most likely die of a brain hemorrhage or something similar. You snort cocaine (not crack), and you smoke crack.

Was Herman Goering a morphine addict?

Yes. He sustained injuries in WW1, and became addicted for the rest of his life.

Not WW1, Goering was actually wounded during the "Beer Hall Putsch" which took place in Munich on the 9th of November 1923. After Hitler declared at the Beer Hall that he and his people had taken over parliament, he then took to the streets in a large march. He, Goering and several other important people were shot at and some wounded when the Bavarian police were attempting to break this march up.

Goering was shot in the thigh/groin area, the wound became infected and he had to undergo several surgeries to save his life. As a result of the severe pain he was in he began using morphine and became addicted.

His decades long addiction came to an end as a prisoner of the Allies after the war. Goering was weaned off his drugs, put on a diet and at the time he was fit and drug free, the first time in many years. He put up a spirited defense at his trial, his IQ was tested along with all the other high ranking Nazis on trial and he scored 192, which put him near the top. Upon hearing of his sentence of death Goering waited until just hours before his scheduled hanging to commit suicide by using cyanide - a potent poison.
