Oxycodone street value

Common Questions and Answers about Oxycodone street value

oxycontin

Avatar f tn At one time, Talwin NX was one of the most prescribed pain medications in the US. They actually added the NX as at one point, it was a huge street drug being ground and injected---- it was called the poor man's heroine. Once the NX was added, it was unable to be used in that way (just to get high) and the drug continued to be heavily prescribed for pain.
Avatar f tn Everything is relative-- but yes, that is a large dose. Consider that Percocet tablets-- medications used to treat surgical pain in dose ranges of 1-2 every 4 hours-- contain 5-10 mg of oxycodone. You are taking the equivalent of 70 of the 5 mg tabs every day, when the dose after major surgery would be on the order of 5-10 tablets per day. The largest dose I've seen in a patient addicted to oxycodone is about 700 mg per day.
1590996 tn?1297089523 I have recently had two urine drug screens come back showing trace amounts of Oxycodone. I have NOT taken this drug. I suffer from severe chronic pain in my back and have been prescribed Dilaudid for almost 3 years, which I take regularly on a daily basis and without it I am totally bedridden.
917008 tn?1251223979 s and oxys u can get anywhere, but recently I noticed oxymorphone being out on the street. as for dauladid I never came across that and I was buying pills on the street for years. I always heard it was most similar to heroin. When I was on methadone it was most similar to the heroin high but safer.
Avatar f tn I've been taking oxycodone mixed with methadone for the past year. It has recently become unavailable to me & I was forced to stop cold turkey. It's been 11 days without it now, & I've developed some issues over the past week. I can not sleep, day or night. I've gone through withdrawls before, but never had sleep issues. I'm tired, & I go to bed at a decent time (between 8-12 pm), but I just lie in bed with my eyes closed a night.
Avatar f tn The urine test WILL show the difference in the two medications. Vicodin is HYDROcodone, which is different than OXYcodone, different drug, different chemical breakdown and different metabolites. Why did you run out of your prescribed vicodin early? The prescriptions are supposed to last 30 days, if you are taking them exactly as prescribed, you should not run out early.
947931 tn?1251495088 I want to drug test my son for Roxicet or the street name Blues...will an opiate test work ?
4887252 tn?1366507495 U shld research that medication.its even used as a street drug. Try to walk or have sm1 massage ur bk softly with almond oil.
Avatar n tn low dose formulations of oxycodone such as percocet(oxycodone/acetiminophen(tylenol)) or percodan(oxycodone/aspirin) which is most commonly given in 5mg or 10 mg tablets is usually given after certain surgeries and for people in severe pain. both oxycontin and percocet abuse has grown in popularity immensely in the past 10 years. its extremely drastic how fast it has arose to being a DOC for people. and the wd's are the same as other opiates of its kind like heroin or dilaudid.

Avatar n tn is the ingredient in all the drugs that have meth in there name the same type of meth and or would it show up as a meth product in a UA test whatever that is there are many to many to count, and is the done in the drugs with done in there medical name all the same done like hydracodone,oxycodone,methadone, My reason for asking this is i had a prescription for oxycodone,and naproxine.
Avatar m tn Percocet does not cost that much. Retail value of 120 pills(months supply) is $38.99 with Target pharmacy. She is not telling you the truth. All pharmacies charge the same no matter what medical insurance you have.
538894 tn?1630257531 I guess I thought that back in January I would Detox at home and defeat this on my own, but I was wrong. Went back to find them on the street after all the work I had done to be honest with my wife and doctor so that I wouldn't be able to obtain the pills that I had abused for so long. And so I just came out of Rehab 4 Days ago and am trying to find NA/AA Meetings to keep myself in the proper support networks. Today I am feeling weak again....
Avatar m tn I see a PM doctor monthly for pain meds. Well i made a stupid mistake and tried a street drug (H) to c what kind of relief if any i would get and to be honest curiosity got the best of me. i have only tried it once and havent since. I didnt think anything of my urine test i took yesterday because (H) would show up as an opiate and i am prescribed opiates, BUT i found out that the doctor is sending the test to get the levels of opiate and oxycodone etc.
Avatar n tn IIm 6 weeks pregnant im going threw withdrawals from oxycodone 30 mgs i take 6 a day for the last 4 yearshelp wats best for me to get off of them the safest way
1326416 tn?1370927001 I switched from Percocet which is (Oxycodone and Acetamiophen) to OxyIR....Plain Oxycodone....There is also Roxicodone (comes in generic as well) which is straight Oxycodone too. The maximum for Acetaminophen daily is 4000 although some studies are now lowering it to 2-3OOO. So...it's really not up to the patient...but the Dr. and what type of treatment they want them to be on. For me...I made the switch after having nausea more often...and now use the OxyIR as my BT medicine.
434196 tn?1206385870 I have a friend who is prescribed methadone and 5mg oxycodone. And I always thought methadone was a opioid blocker. So wouldn't that bock the oxycodone??
Avatar m tn My doctor has led me to believe that she can only prescribe one month at a time with no refills, but the doctor (dentist) that I work for recently told me that a doctor can give a RX for oxycodone with 2 refills, equaling a three month supply. I live in Minnesota.
1094736 tn?1257209688 I am now on Oxycodone for my surgery and have already started to wean off from 30mg per day for 3 days down to 5mg per day for the past 24 hours. 2.5mg morning, 2.5mg in the evening. I am ready to turn my life around and stop taking these narcotic pain killers as well as stop drinking. My question is, how long can I expect the withdrawal symptoms to last after weaning down to 5mg per day for 6 days and 2.
778741 tn?1237641888 I wake up tired Im taking vitamins and b12 I eat good and walk 2 miles every day but I cant get my strenght back I was using oxycodone 150-200 a day lotta times less than that.
Avatar m tn 13 days ago I stopped taking 180 mg of oxycodone and started take 30 mg of methadone which i tappered down to 5 mg. I took my last dose 39 hours ago. My fiance just left me 5 days ago and I am severly depressed can i take xanax?
Avatar n tn I have been on 100 mg. of methadone and 60 15mg. of oxycodone for approx. 8 yrs from pain management. Can they just stop prescribing for one dirty cocaine urine.
413886 tn?1203607351 Oxy's are longer acting, while the Hydrocodone is short acting. And that is just one aspect. Oxycodone has a street name of "hillbilly heroin", so that will give you some idea. Congrats on the taper. Hope it works out for you. Try not to use the Oxy during this process and you will be much better off. The withdrawal will be easier.
190885 tn?1333025891 They are basically oxycontins, only oxycontins consist of oxycodone (the opiate in the pills) and a time release system that causes the oxycodone to be released over 12 hours. Roxis, however, have no time release mechanism. They are basically instant release oxycodone. Roxis also have no other active ingredients (such as tylenol which is a common additive to prescription pain medications) and that makes them even more prone to abuse than your average pain pill.
Avatar n tn like avisg said, if he could taper down some it may be a little less shock to his system.....that is a high dose...there are different ways to quit...scan the health pages...lots of good info there....like gtm said...he has to want it and commit to the goal....it is a process that takes commitment...
Avatar n tn I have been taking oxycodone for a couple of years now.....I have tried to stop a few times but I never get past the first day because I can't stand feeling so terrible. I feel like I have to take it so I can get out of bed and take care of my kid, go to work and take care of my home. I have a friend that gets it prescribed and has been giving it to me all of this time....and I have also been buying it on the street. Please someone tell me what to do.....
