Why do opiates make you constipated?

Opioids increase the amount of time it takes stool to move through the gastric system. They increase nonpropulsive contractions in the middle of the small intestine (jejunum) and decrease longitudinal propulsive peristalsis - motions critical to moving food through the intestines. This results in food that fails to travel through the digestive tract. Opioids are also able to partially paralyze the stomach (gastroparesis) so that food remains in the digestive organ for a longer period of time. Additionally opioids reduce digestive secretions and decrease the urge to defecate.

What can you drink to clean opiates out?

Opiates are fat-soluble, meaning any amount of water isn't going to change your opiate levels. Different opiates have different levels of solubility, but generally drinking more than the required amount of water won't do anything.

In what range is injectable morphine lethal?

I firmly believe that if you don't inject it to begin with, you won't have to worry. But seriously, it depends on the person and if you filter your opiates. It can kill you, that should be enough to drive you from it... Personally, I've lost my older brother to opiates.

In that one act, my mother lost a son, my nephew lost a father, and a father lost a son.

What is the ratio of vicoden to morphine?

This question doesn't even make sense. Vicodin is its own drug. It has 5 mg of hydrocodone and 500 mg of acetaminophen. Morphine is its own drug as well. It is just morphine sulfate. You need to clear up your question. The two drugs are not in a combined drug together so there is no way to find some "ratio" between the two.

If you're asking what the equivalency is between the two, such as "will 2 Morphine tablets work as well as 4 Vicodin tablets?", well the answer is: It depends on the person. Every individual is different.

Vicodin is a Schedule III controlled substance under the Controlled Substances Act and is regulated by the Drug Enforcement Administration. Morphine is a Schedule II controlled substance under the same Act and is even more regulated by the DEA because it has a higher possibility of dependency (addiction) than Vicodin. Both drugs are only available by prescription in the United States.

If I drug tested someone who said they were on vicodin and it came out positive for opiates does this mean they could or could not have been taking something else?

Yes they could have been on almost any other opiate. However taking vicoden or some other Hydrocodone mix is very common compared to using most other opiates.

Can you notarize a Deed for a dying person on Morphine who goes in and out of consciousness?

The mere fact that the patient is on morphine is not alone sufficient to prohibit notarization. What matters is whether or not the patient is sufficiently conscious to fully understand what he or she is doing. Many people in that situation will have so-called "good moments and bad moments" and it is possible that there will be times when the person is capable of understanding his or her actions. The notary will have to make a judgment as to the patient's capacity to know what he or she is doing. Sometimes it is best for a notary to refuse to do it unless a doctor says the patient understands things. This answer is for informational purposes only.
