Cocodamol

Swim is an opiate addict (the nasty brown stuff [H]), anyways, today he couldn't get anything sorted but has found some cocodamol 30/500 in his cupboard. Is it worth taking any to make swim feel better? Will they have any effect??

How many should swim take ?

Muchos cheers

Re: Cocodamol

They would help to different degrees depending on how much you were using.I wouldn't know how much would stop the withdrawal but I can tell you how much is safe to take:
About the codeine I don't really think you'd have to worry about, due to your massive opioid tolerance but you do have to worry about the acetaminophen which is toxic if consumed in large dosages.Your tablets contain 500mg each meaning that you should only take 2-3 tablets at a time and no more than 8 tablets in 24 hours.Now that's the healthy dose.But if you're dope sick and you really can't go cold turkey then you could take 8 tablets at once and no more in 24 hours.Now this would be pretty bad for your liver but it would not kill you (If you don't drink very often, if you're an alcoholic or have more than 1 drink a day then stay away from the stuff, and Do not drink when taking the pills!
Another more healthy option would be doing a CWE which would remove most of the paracetamol from the pills, and you could use 10 or 15 pills if using this method.Even with this method, some Acetaminophen/Paracetamol WILL be in the solution so it's highly recommended that you DO NOT drink.
Here's a really good step by step guide written by Outriderx:

Re: Cocodamol

Cheers all,

Swim read paracetamol toxicity is around 15g in an average healthy male, so swim took 10 pills, 5g paracetamol and 300mg codine.

However swim would not reccomend this as he got a bit of a sore tummy ;o( And they didn't even touch the sides, damn swims opiate tolerance.

Not to worry, swim intends to score in about an hour and a half, it's been a hell of a long night.

Re: Cocodamol

SHIT! you took 5 grams at once??? Look, I tried to warn you and that's all I can do for you.I just want to make sure that you don't die out of lack of information, if you keep doing that you're gonna die.

The "sore tummy" was a symptom of paracetamol poisoning and you might remain symptom free for up to 24 hours.After that, acute liver damage will be evident in the form of jaundice,vomiting,abdominal pain("sore tummy") and finally death from liver failure.If you fail to treat the poisoning soon enough, liver transplantation might be needed.

I see that between your two posts there are less than 24 hours and I would highly,highly recommend that you go to the hospital.To be honest I really think you're poisoned and the fact that you're already suffering from abdominal pain indicates liver damage already.If you vomited and felt much better afterwards, guess what? you're not.But by all means, don't just take my word for it, here's a link with all the information I just gave you:

http://www.emedicinehealth.com/aceta...article_em.htm

Now as I said I do not want you to die or suffer from liver failure out of lack of information,but if having the information you still want to go ahead and do it then...that's your choice.I just want you to understand the consequences so that you can make an informed decicion.

Go to the hospital, and get your acetaminophen levels checked!

Good luck, Robo

Re: Cocodamol

Well for a healthy person who doesn't drink much then maybe, but think about it.He's a heroin addict and god knows what the fuck they cut it with.Many adulterants in heroin damage the liver and kidneys.
And if on top of that he's a drinker then I can't imagine how his liver would handle 5 grams of acetaminophen at once.
I mean, it's even recommended that if you have more than three standard drinks a day you shouldn't even use paracetamol at all.
So I don't know, I mean I don't think he's dead, but I do think he went to the hospital when he's stomach hurt so much he couldn't even walk straight.I hope the best for him, I really do but at the same time I have to be realistic...

Re: Cocodamol

It's really fucked up that they (pharmaceutical companies) cut most prescription opiates with acetaminophen in an effort to stop recreational use knowing that those who want to recreationally abuse/use these opiates will do so, & many aren't knowledgable about the dangers of acetaminophen and its toxicity to the liver and kidney's. The sad thing about it, as is quite obvious in this thread is that most will fail to do a CWE & there are some who will drink either moderately or heavily while taking the acetaminophen/opiate combo with or without the knowledge of the consequences.

It seems they'd rather have us dead or unhealthy than high and happy.

Re: Cocodamol

Yes you go to your doctors! That is what they are there for.

I guess you could go to a "psychic surgeon" "iridologist" or some other new-age charlaten and get lied to.

How did you get to a point where you thought it was a good idea to be eating a half bottle of aspirin a day?

Re: Cocodamol

No, you learn how to do a cold water extraction. You go to erowid and look up the dangers of what you are doing and how to keep your self safe. You don't do stupid things because your too lazy to be bothered reading up on what you are putting into your body. You could just not be an addict.

The internet has made all excuses for ignorance obsolete. You have access to more information instantly, then you could possibly imagine, learn how to use it.

I think it would be easier if you went to the hospital, that way your doctor won't have to be ordering any test.

It's Paracetamol/acetaminophen not aspirin.

And by the way potter, I don't want to start some kind of rep war with you but you really need to be more understanding of the needs that people have in these kind of situations.

Mashed here is worried about his health (by the way, H is better than a paracetamol overdose, so pick H if you have a choice) and all he's asking for is for some information and support not criticism.Your attitude towards members that are in need is really bad and disrespectful, as expressed in this PM, which by the way, I don't know why I received:

Quote:
So should we just hire a hacker to track down all these dip-shits poisoning them selves and send a hit man out to finish the job? I'm getting so fricken sick of post after post "OMG I think I'm going to die, what should I do?" "Every time I OD on meth I feel bad, should I keep doing meth?"

4-5 grams of aspirin a day... Got a kid and shoots up meth until she's sick and keeps doing it... drinking perfume... my god. Sad state of affairs.

Wish it wasn't against the rules just to bad rep these wastes out of the forums.
Again, I don't want a war with you, I am merely giving you my opinion on the way you treat members in this forum, even though,and I don't want to be specific, you have been in need many times and have asked D.F members for help.

Please think about what I said, Robo

I don't think it's that unusual. If you read the painkiller abuse forums you find lots of people who have been taking very high doses of OTC painkillers for years. I tried to tell them once that you could seperate off the codeine and not kill yourself with paracetomol but the moderator removed my post
