eating oxycontin vs snorting

SUV -vs- Nissan and I lost. Three herniated disks and Fibromyalgia on top of that. I tried various (read taht every) opiates until we found Oxycontin. Finally! So for seven years I've been on this stuff-- when I have it, it's a miracle and when I don't it's a nightmare. I have also been using cannabis tea to help (a lot) with several Female Conditions. For years.

I have a family member that is highly addicted to pain killers, Vicodin, Percocet, Oxycodone, Oxycontin, etc. snorting all of these, crushed and pressed to smooth in order to snort. Now he snorts Valiums, yellow 2mg. and blue which I believe is the 10mg. and also Ativan and also extended re-lease orange Oxycontin, from what I have observed. He goes into fits of rage and anger when he does not have these on hand in a box. He smokes one cigarette after another after ingesting all this.

i think my boyfriend has become an addict and i believe he is snorting the pain killers or maybe the antidepressants he is on. what are some things to look for. he is always broke, super emotional and takes vicodin for knee pain, clonapin for whatever and lexapro, vistiril. I am thinking of leaving we have a two year old and i want to know if what i believe is true i need to know if my sone is safe.

I have degenerative disc disease and started taking pain medication about five or six years ago. I've recently been prescribed 30mg roxycontin for my break through pain, and 40mg oxycontin twice a day. On some mornings, I'd wake up sick because I slept so long, and the only way I'd be able to get my medicine in me is by snorting because I throw them up right after I swallow them.

My DOC was OxyContin and yes I did snort it. I have been clean and sober for 101 days through the NA program.

I have a friend who has been crushing oxycodone #15 mg and #30 mg pills and snorting them.... I suggested just puting them into a cup of coffee but she insists on doing them that way. Are there any health risks involved in snorting the pills? Note: they are small pills with no Tylanol in them....

I have been on 240-300 mg of Oxycontins for the past year never abused it before now, I began snorting (rookie move), about three days ago I decided to snort the last pill plus one more. I did not really notice that bigga difference. At about 3 pm after snorting pills at 3 am I am visiting with a friend and suddenly need to start puking, I have kept puking about every three hours all day yesterday and then about an hour after my normal morning dosage today. I don't have any idea what to do.

hey im currently snorting oxycontin and i know hwow hard it is to stop snorting its almost like we are addicted to snorting something so if we dont we feel weird it becomes a routine.

want to help my friend detox from oxycodone10mg ir 4xaday and oxycontin 10mg 3xday she addicted bad to wear now shes snorting the pills she wants help and i want to help what is your advise

took 25mg methadone,still withdrawling,took 80mg,oxycontin,will i feel my dose?

it started out every now and then, but this past summer i began snorting pretty much everyday. usually only 40 mg a day, sometimes a little more. i decided to quit after i had a binge all weekend. I was clean sunday and did not feel great, but not terrible. yesterday i woke up with terrible diarrhea and felt lethargic all day. i took some adderall and a couple tylenol and felt good enough to finally eat yesterday afternoon, but by the night time i felt like death.

And even though I know that snorting anything is not good for you, I was going through some emotional problems and was not in the right frame of mind. I was addicted to oxycontin and was snorting about a pill a day for a year, and even though I don't do it anymore, I feel as though I did some damage to my sinuses. My question is, is it possible to clog your sinuses from this behavior. I am constantly clearing my throat.

I mean, I know Oxycontin is slow release, but percocet is Oxycodone and how is that different from the Oxycontin? I thought they were the same only, one was slow release and one was not, but there must be another difference... Right?

The surge he gets from snorting them could very well be causing heart palpatations...cocaine does the same thing...i have seen many young people come into the er after snorting and be in cardiac distress...Chest pain is never to be ignored...get it checked...if u say you have chest pain in an er...u automatically get bumped to the front of the line...

he is in an advanced addictive behavior...he is not snorting for pain relief as the act of snorting hits someone quick but doesnt last long at all causing massive doses to keep up///a big down spiral/depression/ follows snorting cos it hits so fast and is gone so fast that it leads to massive does just to function without the severe depression...

He is always clearing his throat or trying. I think he is snorting the stuff. Can anyone tell me what they know about this reaction?

Okay. Well, i have been an opiate addict for the past three years. I started snorting oxycontin, then shooting it. Then shooting heroin. Finally a year ago I got on methadone, took that for like 9 months. And i decreased every month. But then I screwed up again and went back to snorting oxycontin for a few months. And during the past few months of using oxy, I started having really bad palpitations, my blood pressure skyrocketed whenever i did some.

WHAT IS YOUR REASON FOR ASKING? WE ARE HERE TO SUPPORT YOU IF YOU WANT HELP GETTNG OFF DRUGS.

My question is, is this a side affect of the drug itself or because i am snorting he oxy. Also is it possible to become addicted to oxy afer only a few occational spaced out uses. if so I am glad that i am not addicted to the point where i know I cant stop, but concered that i am having a withdrawl affect after just a few times of use. any coments are appreciated.

hello...unfortunatly is dont have experience with snorting so i really dont have any insight as to why you like the taste..but i do know the feeling pain meds can give you....maybe you associate the taste of the drug with the feeling it gives you.....kinda like when you smell food and it makes your mouth water...like a preperation for whats coming next.

My son takes Oxy Contin for pain. Recently, he has been snorting them. I was told that this made the drug stronger. Is this true?

In the past 6 months I have been taking about 5-6 10mg percocets everyday. Within the past month I have been either doing that or snorting ATLEAST 1 80mg oxycontin a day. My friends finally found out about my "double life" and this gave me a strong incentive to quit. I havent touched any opiates in about 48 hours...just some xanax to take the edge off and a little weed. The thing that I noticed to be the worst part of withdrawal...well for me anyway is the LEG CRAMPS!!!...

i was on opana for a while and its withdrawal just like oxy your gona have to use same over the counter stuff like unisom for sleep n ride out the rest.. unless u go to rehab its gona be rough.
