Addiction - oral codeine strength

[wopa]

hi each month swim is able to get hold of 100ml of a clear oral codeine 25mg/5ml solution swim also has 130ml of methadone on a daily basis but swim wants to no is this classed as a week form of codeine swim is not to clued up on the codeine strength

So thats 500mg codeine in liquid form.
I take it SWIY has a reasonably high opioid tolerance?

My ferret uses codeine regularly enough, and he takes ~350mg codeine as 1 dose. Codeine's ceiling for effects is at around the 400mg mark, anything over that is pretty much pointless.

For someone with little opiate tolerance 1 dose of codeine would be somewhere between 100-200mg, depending on other factors; weight, age, metabolism ect.

500mg is definitely not a small dose!

SWIY's Methadone habit will most likely be interfering here.

500mg of codine in 100mls would be enough to get at least 3 newbs a return ticket to paradise and back but if my freind has a 130 ml a day methadone habit youd be better off saving the codine for a rainy day ...
