What does Oxycontin metabolize into?

If your wondering what it will show up on a drug test here is what I know! I was in a program that tested my urine once a week. I was being tested by a normal five panel dip stick, meth, coc, THC, opi, Benz, and when i was being tested i was passing drug test while on Oxycontin. It wasn't until the program director figured out that Oxycontin didn't show up on a drug test that he had to special order "oxy" test strips. And the same is for percocet also. So I hope that helps answer your question a little. HXP

What are the active ingredients in oxiclean?

Sodium percarbonate.

Don't mix with bleach (sodium hypochorite). The resultant chemical are bad for washing machine and people.

OxiClean®

Sodium Percarbonate:According to research by Laundry Alternative, OxiClean® consists of 50 to 60 percent sodium percarbonate. Sodium percarbonate must be added to water to be activated. When activated, it breaks down into hydrogen peroxide and sodium carbonate in solution. The bubbling action, or the release of oxygen molecules, loosens stain molecules from fibers so they can be rinsed away.

Soda Ash (Sodium Carbonate): Sodium carbonate, or soda ash, is also sold separately as washing soda. As one component of activated sodium percarbonate, it boosts the water's pH, making it more alkaline, which neutralizes acids that may be produced during the cleaning process so the stain molecules can be rinsed away easily. When properly dissolved, the pH of OxiClean® can be as high as 11. Some items, such as carpeting, have warranty limitations or recommended pH cleaning of no more than 10.

Hydrogen Peroxide:The hydrogen peroxide component of the activated sodium percarbonate works as a bleach and sanitizer. It breaks down into oxygen and water.

Surfactants (Detergents): OxiClean® contains low-sudsing surfactants to complete the cleaning process. These are non-ionic detergents, which are neutral and do not react to hard water ions.

How difficult is it to get off 3 x 80mg Oxycontin taken for 2 years?

very very difficult, one would need to go to a rehab, stopping cold turkey would harm and possibly kill the person due to withdraws from such a powerful drug

*Edit from Tjeyw721: "Simply" (and I use that term loosely) withdrawing from opiates is not fatal, although you will feel like you want to kill yourself. Withdrawing cold turkey is very, VERY difficult. If you were being prescribed Oxycontin, talk to your doctor about tapering you slowly off the drug. If that isn't possible, you will want to get some sort of help (I personally recommend Suboxone, but Methadone works too, and you will need to be tapered off of these as well) to help get through the worst of your withdrawal. After that, it's a long battle, but worth it if you can make it! I havent yet, but I'm hoping one day I do. Good luck and take care!

What is a home detox method for Lortab?

\ The addictive agent in Lortabs is Hydrocodone -- a synthetic opioid. The REAL answer to this question goes as follows: Some years ago, addictive meds were defined as those your body built such a strong tolerance to that stopping cold was very dangerous and could even be fatal. Alcohol is one of these; babrbituates are another. Stopping barbitutae habits was a nightmare, because it wasn't uncommon for your patient to convulse on you and even die. Hugely dangerous, those addictions. Nowadays, addiction to hydrocodone is real alright, but unlike the meds from the bad old days, it won't kill you. In fact, it won't cause really acute symptoms like delerium tremons (from ETOH). Stopping a reasonably major hydrocodone addiction (say up to 4.4g per day) feels like you have a truly nasty flu -- no more and no less. So -- here's how you do it: # Get some time where you don't have duties are chores. Four days is likely more than enough. # Lay in a stock of GatorAde or some other sports drink. Drink lots of it all the time. # Stock up on food you can eat without having to do much in the kitchen beyond the microwave. Stuff you like. # Feel free with sugar foods -- this is a vacation. # Use Benadryl Flu Tabs or the like. Maybe some aspirin or Ibuprofen if you need it. Nothing prescription except any other prescription meds you're taking for other issues (like, if you're taking heart medication, of course continue it). # Rent enough movies. # Don't take incoming calls unless you want to. No bill collectors :}. # Tell everyone you're out with the flu. # Plan on sleeping a lot. # Stop the Lortabs. # And spend the next 4 days recovering. # Remember all through this that you're ill now but it'll be better soon. Nothing wrong with you -- just like a flu. # If you ever get scared or hurting during this, have someone on call to help you -- but you wont get scared or hurting. Honestly -- that's all there is to it -- IF you're ready to stop this habit. Best of luck.

Is it illegal to take HGH without a prescription?

This is an excerpt from a New York Times article from 2006...The Food and Drug Administration has banned H.G.H. for all but a few specific medical conditions (see "The Outlaw Drug"), and it has been banned by most professional sports leagues in the United States and by the International Olympic Committee I would add that even with a prescription, only a teen of shorter than average stature would benefit from this substance. After bones have stopped growing, use by an adult causes extraordinary stress on organ systems like the heart and liver. An obvious side effect is acromegaly, or abnormal bone overgrowth especially seen in the face. This is why many athletes who use this seem to have larger heads or more prominent facial bones than usual (see Mickey Rourke and Barry Bonds).

What produces oxytocin?

oxytocin: a pituitary octapeptide hormone C43H66N12O12S2 that stimulates especially the contraction of uterine muscle and the secretion of milk.

Oxytocin ( /ˌɒksɨˈtoʊsɪn/) is a mammalian hormone that acts primarily as a neuromodulator in the brain. Oxytocin has the distinction of being the very first polypeptide hormone to be sequenced and synthesized biochemically, by Vincent du Vigneaud et al. in 1953.[1]

Oxytocin is best known for its roles in female reproduction. It is released in large amounts 1) after distension of the cervix and uterus during labor, and 2) after stimulation of the nipples, facilitating birth and breastfeeding. Recent studies have begun to investigate oxytocin's role in various behaviors, including orgasm, social recognition, pair bonding, anxiety, and maternal behaviors.[2] For this reason, it is sometimes referred to as the "love hormone".[3]

The word oxytocin is a corruption of the Greek ὼκυτοκίνη, ōkytokínē, "quick labor".

Do standard employment drug test check for oxycodone?

The standard 5-drug, or NIDA, test, will not detect oxycodone. However, unless you ask, and that would be stupid, there is no way of knowing which kind of drug test a particular employer uses. I know specifically of an employer that uses the standard test BUT adds a screen for hydrocodone (Vicodin). The only way to be sure you will pass is to submit a clean sample.

How do you take time release coating off morphine?

The time release for products like MSContin (morphine sulfate) and Oxycontin (oxycodone hcl) is not in the coloured coating, it is in the entire matrix of the pill. Crushing the pill before oral ingestion defeats the time release which is why controlled release products generally state that one should not do this.

Other time release technology is used in products like Kapanol (morphine sulfate), in the form of tiny beads designed to slow release the drug. They are contained in a gel cap which melts after oral ingestion, releasing them to break down slowly. In the same way, if the beads are emptied out of the gel cap and finely powdered before oral ingestion, the time release is defeated, and a potentially dangerous amount of drug will be released at one time.
