What would your opiate level be on a test if you took a hydrocodone 10 about 1.5 days ago?
If you took a ten a day ago, that would stay in your body at least as long as your hair grows. For instance, they are now using hair for samples...and it stays there forever. All they need is a strand of your hair, and they can determine exactly what you took, AND when. Go ahead, look for that new job now. Or stay drug free.
Are opiates a natural or synesthetic?
Opiates are natural substances derived from the opium poppy plant, specifically from its latex. They include compounds like morphine and codeine, which are found in the plant itself. In contrast, synthetic opioids, such as fentanyl, are chemically manufactured to mimic the effects of natural opiates. Thus, while opiates are natural, the broader category of opioids includes both natural and synthetic variants.

How are endorphins like morphine?
Endorphin means "endogenous morphine," endogenous meaning created within the body. when your exercise, lift weights, swim, run, etc. the tension on your muscles caues your body to release a pain killer (beta-endorphin) to allow you to not feel the pain and focus on whatever it was you were trying to accomplish. there structure of endorphins is what drugs like morphine and heroin are based upon, and is why they attach to the same opiod receptors as endorphins. Due to their similar structure as a painkiller, this is where the euphoric notion after excersice or other strenous activities comes from. The difference is in the fact that endorphins are pre-synaptic, meaning they dont change to chemistry of your brain or cause an irregular dopamine release, which is what causes addiction from painkiller drugs that do this. But to sum up the question, t
When detoxing from opiates the suboxone replaces the opiates correct?
In a round-about way, so to speak yes. The suboxone attaches to the receptors that control pain. They keep them occupied so your brain is getting the narcotic from the suboxone in a less abusive way then opiates. Your switching to the lesser of two evils though if you don't get off the suboxone relatively quick (5-7 days) you will still have to go through detox, just then for the suboxone. The key is to not have any opiate left on the receptors, or very little, when you first take suboxone otherwise the two meds fighting for position will cause precipitated withdrawals:( Check "Your Addiction Solutions" for more
How is a synthetic opiate different than a opiate analgesic?
a synthetic opiate is different from an actual opiate analgesic because it is created chemically in a lab and therefore is not a real opiate it just acts like one in your body targeting the same nerve receptors that perceive pain to alter your body's reaction to that pain synthetic opiates would be drugs such as Ultram or tramadol Darvocet or propoxyphene opiate analgesics are also labeled as controlled substances or narcotics where as synthetics are not because even though they are supposed to do the same thing you can never truly manipulate the effect of the real thing in my opinion the real drugs always work better but synthetics are less addictive and therefore usually prescribed more. Also a synthetic opiate or narcotic will not show up as a narcotic in a drug test.
What are the short term and long term mental and physical effects of opiates?
Short term effects mentally - you want to get that feeling again., Short term effects physically - Nodding, dreaming, feeling all is right with the world.
Now to the long term effects. I know about those by being a 37 year heroin user. I kicked 3 years ago by myself so I do know what I am speaking of.
Long term effects of opiate use mentally - withdrawal from society, loss of family, friends, self esteem and anything else you once held dear, becoming a thief, a prostitute or anything you have to be to get the drug. Long term effects physically- severe withdrawal symptoms ( vomiting violently, diarrhea, sneezing, leaking water from the eyes and nose, severe stomach cramps, inability to sleep and disturbance of sleep patterns for the remainder of your life, depression, just to name a few).
My advice, they will ruin your life.

This effect is temporary but the user will never recover the memories lost while he was under the influence of said opiate.
