Its fucked. I was into vicodin as a teenager, and its not like I didnt take tons anyways. lol. Addicts are gonna use that shit no matter what. I remember reading that the lethal dosage of tylenol begins at 4000mgs, so I would usually wind up taking 8-12 norcos a day (325 tylenol x 8 = 2600). But I'd drink with them...Somehow I justified needing to drink since I was taking "only" 2/3rds the amount of tylenol needed to die.

I think it's ridiculous, I'm disgusted with people's tolerance for white collar crime. I constitute it as white collar crime because they still allow this shit to be sold even when they now know exactly what it does to people, particularly their livers.

People must not want to know they're being victimized, I don't know how else to explain the shit people put up with so long as it's not street-crime.

well since i know about the cold water extraction for opiates with acetominophen it doesnt really bother me. and im not about to drink cough medicine, or take any as suggested for that matter.

verklingen · 11-13-2009, 08:30 AM

yeah it's fucked up for sure, never understood how that was thought a good idea by anyone

Xil · 11-13-2009, 08:43 AM

possibly because apap is an effective painkiller and can work in conjunction with opiates to provide better relief?

although i would like to just see separate pills and you could take both as needed...

zerodown · 11-13-2009, 08:45 AM

I try not to take pills for anything, I let my immune system do its work on its own as much as it can, taking pills not only fucks you up, but it prevents the immune system from developing as it should because the pill does the work the immune system should be doing.

cantSEEme · 11-13-2009, 08:46 AM

your immune system doesnt controll pain. it's your body's natural defence system. apap is just an otc pain killer.

also, combination pain-killers are more effective than just one type, otc or otherwise.

Xil · 11-13-2009, 08:47 AM

wow i just looked at that list...didn't realize how crappy relief tylenol gives...

but i guess thats what hydromorphone is for, i can vouch that that shit stops pain really well, though not the best (or worst) for recreation.
