Codeine in a enjoyable drink form

[samsosasoda]

Since codeine is as bitter as fuck, does anyone know a good drink to mask the flavor and actually be somewhat pleasing?

[Tortoise]

Bitterness = rite of passage.

Or Swiy could stick up it his ass. (literally)

[Frog_muncher]

its not like your going to have to neck pint after pint of it, Be a man and just chug it back.

[Psych0naut]

Indeed because one is left over with a volume of bitter CWE extract to large to cover up with something else, one can't do anything but be brave and chug.
Best way to do that is just hold your nose(this way you taste much less) and chugging it as fast as possible. Hold your nose till it's all gone, and than quickly take a few sips of milk and swish it around in your mouth to get rid of the nasty taste, and after that you can let go of your nose.

Also SWIM has found that anything (duh) will mask the flavor common sense.

like an arnold palmer for example, speaking of...

this my second post holler!

It's hard to mask the taste, but SWIM has found that mixing it with a good amount of milk and chocolate syrup seems to work very well. SWIM does find that this slows absorption of the codeine a tad, but it's not a big deal.

[Tortoise]

Swim generally just drink the bitter, foul concoction and chases it with some strong cordial or OJ. He doesn't mind the bitterness so much when he takes into account how very wonderful it's going to make him feel. I guess it's the same way a heroin addict feels about jabbing a needle into his/her arm. It hurts but it's so worth it!

What about..Grapefruit Juice..along with ur Codeine Solution?Some say it might even act as a booster because it's a potent inhibitor of the Cytochrome P450 enzyme CYP3A4, which can impact the metabolism of a variety of drugs, increasing their bioavailablility...they say Codeine is one one them because this enzyme seem to be the one that hepls its absorption.

Most agree that grapefruit juice potentiation doesn't work with codeine because it interferes with the conversion to morphine in the liver.

Are you saying it ends up inibhiting your Codeine fix or that it's just worthless?

[augentier]

Around here people mix codeine and sprite..I hear it tastes like candy..

It inhibits the codeine from being converted into morphine, so it won't feel as good as it would without the grapefruit juice. Theoretically.

There are a lot of debates about this on this forum and others, with some people claiming it does help and others claiming that those people are idiots and that it's all placebo effect.

Here's a couple threads that discuss it.

Haha that's exactly right..that's also why I picked up the point..I think I'll have to join the second group.But...again..maybe it's just up to what you call grapefruit juice..the real thing or the juice you get at the mall?I'm pretty sure that it concerns only the actual juice..which is where the molecule
capable to inibhit the CYP3A4 is found.I'll read those threads though
