Is it iliggal to take oxycodone on a air plain with out my perscrition?

Whatever air space the PLANE is in dictates what laws are in effect. If you are over the US, then it would probably be illegal. If you are over the pacific your should be ok. Unless you are snorting them off of the tray table, i doubt you would be caught though.

Is 760mg of Oxycontin an outrageous amount to be prescribed in a 24 hour period?

Yes. That is an outrageous amount, and my rationale here is that a dosage that high would send any normal person into respiratory depression and CNS failure before it would do them any good. You would probably want to clarify with your doctor that he really wanted you to take 760mg in 24 hours.

AnswerIt isn't called "poor man's heroin" for nothing. It does the same damage to your body that heroin does: kills brain cells, destroys the liver, eventually you lose all your teeth, constipation, inability to eat and digest food, heart bacterial infections, and it will kill you. Sound like fun?

____________________________________________________________________

Oxycodone is an semi-synthetic opioid analgesic, used primarily in the treatment of pain.

Oxycontin has... one of the side effects listed above? Whoever wrote that is mentally handicapped.

Use in moderation, you'll be fine...

As an Oxycontin addict I can tell you that its not called "poor man's heroin". In fact it is extremely expensive. It costs about thirty dollars a pill on the street. Also those aren't side effects of Oxycontin except for constipation.

From mine and my husbands experience as well as our friends who use this is what its like, it will most likely put you in financial ruin, we have to spend around a thousand dollars a week and have run up thousands of dollars in debt. At first its fun. the first high is the best feeling in the world, and then after that you just keep wanting that same feeling back but its never quite as good. When you first start you think you can quit at any time but you don't want to then you get physically addicted and that's just awful because as soon as you wake up your withdrawing, sweating, shaking, nausea, weakness, hot and cold flashes, with your eyes and nose watering and you can't stop yawning, you just want to crawl out of your skin. It kinda feels like the worst flu you'll ever have. So now your spending all this money so you don't withdrawl and your not even getting high anymore. That's what its like being addicted to Oxycontin it sucks.

It's freaking Awesome, IMO....

Does restoryl and Valium come up as the same in a urine test?

They are both benzodiazepines. If the drug tests for benzos in a generic way, either will produce a positive result. Some tests can detect a specific benzo.

If you have a valid prescription for both, you should have no problems.

Is oxtcontin a depressent?

Technically OxyContin (oxycodone) is a narcotic drug, in the class of synthetic opiates, and is used to treat moderate to severe pain.

All opiates, natural or synthetic, depress (meaning in this case to slow) the central nervous system, decreasing heart rate and slowing breathing. In that technical sense it is officially considered a depressant.

This is not the same thing as causing psychiatric symptoms of depression which it does not do.

The active metabolites of primidone are phenobarbital and phenylmethylmalonamide (PEMA), both barbiturate-type compounds with anticonvulsant and sedative properties.

Is there a difference in the strength of generic 5mg oxycodone Are 512's stronger or are the Watson brand stronger?

The only difference between the two from what I understand of your question is.... The only difference between the two are the drug makers.... The one is manufectured by Watson,and the other is made by Mallinkart,as far as one being stronger than the other-all generics are the same,except for the fillers...cornstarch etc.etc. The narcotic oxycodone is the same in both tablets

Been using opiates for ten years how long will withdrawal last?

The really nasty stuff should be over in a week but the cravings, itches, and sweats can last much longer.

What is the difference between Oxycontin and oxycodone?

Oxycodone is found in fast-acting opiates such as Percocet(which also contains tylenol), Roxicodone, and is also in Oxycontin. The only difference between oxycodone and Oxycontin is, Oxycontin is time-released. It distributes its oxycodone slowly over a period of 12 hours, as long as the pill is not cut up or smashed. The 'contin' in 'Oxycontin' stands for continuous.

What are the long-term effects for Oxycontin?

Last time I heard, having Oxycontin without a prescription means one year of jailtime, per pill. It may or may not be a year, could be shorter or longer depending on where you live. Possession of narcotics is a felony and a permanent black mark on your record so be careful!

How long does OXYCONTIN withdrawal last?

Depends on your usage, it's very hard to withdraw alone. the physical withdrawal usually lasts around five days, the mental addiction lasts much longer. You will be very tempted to give up & go back to using to alleviate the physical & emotional turmoil you will experience. I would not suggest you do this alone.suboxone& methadone clinics help, but they require a time commitment, you could be in rehab for years along with counseling. have faith in yourself, you are stronger than you think. Do it for you tho, not for anyone else. you really have to want to get sober, otherwise you will relapse.

What drug shows up as opiate in urine?

pain pills such as oxycodone, Oxycontin, hydrocodone, etc. And I'm assuming herion would be an opiate also.

Can you smoke roxycodone... i know that you can smoke Oxycontin by using aluminum foil .. chasing the dragon.. but can you smoke roxys as well?

Yeah, tastes sort of like hash, but a bit stronger.

Break it up like you're going to rail it, but sprinkle it on top of the bowl like you would if you were smoking some coke on it.

I've only done it a few times but from what I've seen, it's best to sprinkle just enough for a hit or two, it tends to stay lit like a resin ball and unless you've got 5 people in the circle, you're probably going to waste the rest of it.

I have snorted Oxycontin before but i was given a hydrocodone bitartrate ibuprofen im afraid because there is so much ibuprofen in it can i snort it?

Do not snort hydrocodone or ibuprofren because it will not do anything for you. you only can snort Oxycontin. If you try and snort the vicodin you are basically snorting Tylenol also and that is not good. hope this helps

Ignore the person above, snorting hydrocodone will have an effect on you depending on your tolerance from the oxycontin. however, the ibuprofen will burn your throat and nose slightly. it irritates the membrane but will still have the effect. dissolving into water would lessen the pain but also the effects.

Are the ingredients in metabothin and metabolife 356 the same?

No, Metabolife had ephedra in it which has beened banned for some time now. I have never tried Metabothin, but I am sure it isn't as strong without the ephedra. You could try a ECY stack (Ephedrine, Caffine, Yohimbe Stack). You can purchase High Power Caffine hlc 200mg, MegaPro Vasopro-Ephedrine 25 mg, and Yohimbe hlc 5 mg. I heard they have a similar effect. Ephedra and Phentermine (which is prescription) are the only supplements that have ever worked for me. I just ordered Hydroxycut hardcore. After doing a lot of research online a lot of people said they gained a lot of energy from it.
