I need to know if anyone has heard of the street drug, roxy or roxies?
If so could you tell me alittle about it? What does it have in it or is this several drugs mixed together? My son is on them and he is in terrible shape and needs to get help before they kill him.

Roxies are either a research chemical said to have similar effects to MDMA...

Or Roxicodone, an opiate that can be highly addictive and euphoric that is prescribed for pain control.

If he's having problems with them and addiction I would bet it's the roxicodone as the research chemicals are psychedelics that one does not get addicted to.

There are treatment facilities available close to you I'd imagine, just look them up.

Opiate addictions can be scary.

Good luck and stay safe.

I've tried nearly every drug available to mankind and I have never heard that slang term. im very sorry Neutral

Things that it might be:

Roxies = Mollies? in that case it may be MDMA or better known as ecstasy(mollies meaning, pure MDMA, however sometimes is cut with other stuff)

Oxy's = Oxycodones? in this case this is a highly addictive opiate.

I hope this helped at all! gl!

Roxy is the short term for Roxiecodone. It is the brand name for Oxycodone (which is the generic). These drugs are prescription pain killers in the opiate family. They are highly addictive. If your son is addicted to them, he will more than likely require inpatient drug rehab. Good luck with him! These addictions can be scary.

It's probably oxycodone, which is a very serious addiction (think heroin). Get him to a clinic or NA meeting (you can call your local AA and they'll help you).

i was addicted to roxies for over 6 months, they generally come in the form of a small round blue pill in doses as high as 30mg. It is known to be synthetic heroin, or lab heroine. Opiate family and highly addictive, i didnt just pop them, i free based them as well. The euphoric high is irresistible. Fortunately i was not on them for very long compared to other users, i simply went to a walk in clinic, and was prescribed 1mg xanex or zanex, they really help get you off of the oxycodone. They tone down the restlessness that comes with withdrawal. Not sleeping for 4 days in a row, will drive any man to quit.

There are many clincs. But a drug that will help him get off the opiots is Suboxone.
