blue pill A/215

"People like you all make it difficult for people like me, who are actually in chronic pain on a daily basis. It is because of abusers, the drug companies keep having to reformulate. Get help people!! And by the way, HEROIN is NOT Oxycodone or percocet!!!" Oxycodone and the like might as well be because long-term use (whether needed or not) will have the same repercussions as using heroine. Btw: Your reply was just flat-out mean. 'MOST' people whom are on these pills started off taking them because their doctor (you know? The almighty people around us in which whom the world trusts will do "right" by their patient's health) prescribed it to them for one reason or another. After someone is prescribed these medications (whether it's Percocet, Oxy's, Vicodin, Roxy's, etc.), something called "TOLLERANCE" begins to settle into their body. One pill ( taken every six hours as directed), slowly turns into two pills every six hours--wash, rinse, repeat until the user is downing ten, twenty, thirty a day in order to just "sustain" feeling normal. They're no longer getting high off the pills. They no longer get that warm, fuzzy feeling. They are able to drive as though they weren't on a lick of anything. The pills no longer take away the pain in which they were first subscribed them for whatever reason their doctor felt they needed them to begin with. I'm a wife (of 27 years) to a kickas* husband and a mother to five beautiful children. In the summer of 2008, I was in a near-death car accident. I currently have two metal rods implanted in both legs where my shins used to be. My left knee was shattered to pieces. My list of both mental and physical scars goes on forever. Before my accident, I wasn't a stranger to pills. I was diagnosed with cervical cancer at the age of 33 and had to undergo a hysterectomy. No fun, but it was needed. As directed, I took a one month supply of consisting of 90-10 mg Percocet's. Three a day for thirty days. Once the script was up, I didn't look back, never once trying to score additional Perc's. That said: after my car accident, it was a whole different story. The pain is forever with me, every muscle, nerve-ending, and strand of hair on my body in a constant state of horrific pain. My trusted doctor started me out on morphine, and Percocet's as a means for any kind of quick breakthrough pain. They were needed, as the morphine barely touched the surface of the pain I was and continue to be in. Before I could realize what was happening, bam! I was physically addicted to these "little devil's", my need for these "legalized forms of heroine" an absolute nightmare. When I awake in the morning, just to feel "normal" (no high whatsoever included in this scenario), I have to down anywhere from five to seven Perc's. So, whoever you are, tossing around statements such as "It's people like you who (should be "whom", btw) make it difficult for people like me who are actually in chronic pain on a daily basis, blah, blah, blah" should check yourself AND this thread again. Most of what I personally read here was either currently addicted users or former users giving "fair-warning" to the original poster. No one grows up praying they become an addict by the age of twenty. No one hopes to the good Lord above to give them a horrid addiction such as the one in which comes along with (sometimes) having to use these pills for legitimate pain. Another thing I'd keep in mind before you start tossing stones at any addict (whether one here on this board, or the millions out there whom are not participating in this conversation) is our BEUATIFUL government's role in this epic mess. Politicians and "Big Pharma" are longtime pals, their friendship going back many, many years. HUGE amounts of these politician's campaigns are funded by these drug makers, their hands joined in unbreakable unity when it comes to the laws surrounding how and what scripts are written to (overall) unsuspecting patients. Sure. Should people be wise when it comes to their health? Absolutely. No matter how society perceives our doctor's, no. They are not god's, their education spanning a tad-bit more than your average "Joe." With that: yes. We (the people in which are at risk for not only addiction to these evil--but sometimes necessary--pills, but potentially harmful short and long-term side effects) should do our homework on what we're putting into our body's. I've stated my peace here, and pray to God that every addict out there (both clean, in recovery, along with those whom are continuing to struggle with this manufactured disease) holds it together, gets the help they so desperately need to get off this cr*p. Myself included--a loving wife and mother whom of which had no idea that the day some id**t decided that running a red light was a great idea. God speed to all...

I just read what you wrote here. Yes everything you said is true i am currently in that position its a b***h i hate it and who it has made me become i will now do a search on suboxone thanks for your advice and outlook itvwas helpful

Pinned eyes are small pupils

Oxycodone, oxycontin, and Percocet (which is just oxycodone with tylenol) are made from the same plant heroin is so basically it is almost the same thing. And "you people??" Who are you to judge? Being an addict is alotmore painful than your chronic pain. You dont need pain meds to live: deal with it. If the drug compcompanies werent making so much money they could be responsibleand make people man up and deal with their pain so this aaddiction didnt affect so many people.

To start with no one should take pain med to get high. But sometimes they are needed. If you escalate how many you take that is your choice not the drug. I have severe nerve damage in my leg from cancer and am perscribed 6 30mg oxys each day along with 3 60 mg morphine er. I have not escalated how much I take over time I actually try to take as little as possible. On days when the pain is torerable I take less. And when the pain is bad I don't take more.if you need the meds to truly control pain take them. If your taking them to get high then that's your choice not the pills. There is nothing in life that is so bad that you need to lose control of your freedom to choose. Just be smart take the amount you need and you will be fine.

dude way off perc only 5 and 10mg with tylenol. oxycodone main ingredient. oxyasap avail in 5,10,15,20 and 30mg no tylenol.. old brand name was roxi. oxycotin just is ext release version. so, percodan with tylenol and percocet with asprin k.

I'm taking 30 for chronic pain 4X daily sometimes only 3. In two years I've never abused them or took an inappropriate Dose. I take when in pain and skip when I'm not..not every one pops them for fun. I don't " get high" the alive my pain nothing more.

What your son has is oxycodone 30 mg, if his doctor give them to your son He is probably pose to take one every 4 to 6 hours or maybe 8 hours. This A215 is IR. (Immediat release). However he could be selling them. People do strange things with these pills like smoking them, if you see aluminum foil that's what he is doing. If you see one empty bic lighter after another then for sure he is smoking. If you do not see what I said then he could be putting it up his nose or worse shooting it in his vains. Or he could be following his doctors orders and taking them the right way. Every so many hours. But the down side is doctors do not start anybody right off the top with 30 mg. That's a lot for somebody who has never been on opiates before. The DOCTOR would give Tylenol #3 with codeine or Norco. The DOCTOR would only give him 30 mg if all else fails. This drug your son has is very addicteding. I take them for pain because I have heart failure COPD and tons of surgeries. And chronic pain. They are pretty safe if you take them as the doctor orders. My doctor proscribed me 1 every 4 to 6 hours. But I take mine sometimes one every 8 hours. That's all anybody would need to help with the pain. So it would be pretty safe. Taking it the way your doctor tells you to take it. The problems are that you have a lot of young ones and older ones take them just to get a good high by shooting them, smoking them and snorting up ther nose. The poor people that need them for pain. Are finding it harder and harder because these drug addicts are selling them and a lot of them die from overdose. I cannot talk bad about an addict because in the long run they get very sick and with draw because they have to pay to get them on the streets. Anywhere from 10 to 30 dollars. The dealers are the ones that piss me off because all they care about is that cheddar money. And making that money on peoples pain! They don't give a sh*t. I beat the hell out two of them for selling stuff to kids. I hate those Bastards. Well I hope this was helpful. A lot of people on here are hateing on me asi speak.

I have been taking perks for a long time it has ruiend my life i would steal money pawned everything just for a 20 min high i had a 70000 year job and lost it its a bad habbit get out soon or it will ruin your life

Are you kidding w/the suboxone isn't a narcotic???? Of course it is! The buprenorphine in suboxone is the opiate, the naloxone is an opiate blocker. The average suboxone strip (not pill form, quit making pill form in 2013) has 8mg/buprenorphine and 2mg/naloxone. Some people say it saved their life. But, in my experience, that sh*t is from the depths of of hell!!! I tried it for a few months, really hoping it would be the life saving treatment it was marketed to be, supposedly with little to no withdrawals. My dose was 5 8mg strips a day. I tapered down to one another day. And still the withdrawals were horrendous! I'm back on the 30mg roxies. The w.d. from roxies (as bad as they are) is a walk in the park compared to the suboxone!

Im the same as you brotha. To a t. But please do not recommend suboxone. That is no way a miracle drug. It is substituting one addiction for another and is a crutch. Please don't take offense man I mean no disrespect.

It's all oxycodone. Oxycontin Is a time released form of oxycoxodone where as the 30s are instant release oxycodine. Percocet 10s are 325 Mg acetaminophen and 10mg oxycoxodone. It's all oxycoxodone .

hi guys. Life is good .. Finally kicked the habit. My wife stayed with me but my daughter is still upset.. Everything is getting better..

Suboxone is far from a miracle pill. The withdrawals from those are even worse that oxy's. Horrible withdrawals that make you want to pull your hair out. It contains 2 actives: buprenorphine (an opiate agonist) and naloxone, which is an opiate blocker and reverses the effects of opiate pain pills. However this ingredient in my opinion is pure poison because of the way it works. It attaches itself chemically to your opiate receptors--the receptors of the brain that allow pain meds to alleviate pain. So when this Naloxone ingredient does it's job by attaching itself to the brain receptors to block the effects of a pain pill, they stay there for a long, long time. Studies have shown patients that took Suboxone for ONLY 90 days and stopped taking the Suboxone, but A SOLID YEAR LATER of not taking Suboxone, they still had naloxone residuals still in their brain receptors. This is why NO DOCTOR should allow a patient to take it more than a week. That's all anyone needs anyways in order to physically get past the worst of ones opiate withdrawals. Any withdrawals past a week can be addressed with other meds or other ways, but the "dope sick" part of the withdrawals only last typically 3-4 days max!! This is why a week is actually more than what's needed but those few extra days is sometimes helpful to the patient from a mental perspective, for a lot of the remaining addiction is psychosomatic and not a physical withdrawal.
I don't care if you are a heroin addict or are taking two hundred 30mg oxycodones, you only need 4-5 days, 7 at the most to get off of the opiate addiction and then stop taking the Suboxone, for it has done it's job and stopping taking it would be wise so you don't get addicted to the Naloxone part of the Suboxone. I speak from experience with me taking 200 (30mg) oxycodone's for a better part of 7 years and was able to get clean with Suboxone over the course of 5 days. They are widely prescribed in way to much of quantities, for doctors should not allow a patient to take more that 5 at a time or five days worth. Like, at the 8mg strength, prescribing 3-4 pills for someone who has been taking opiates for years, 4 tablets at 8mg strength is more than enough, may even be too much because one 8mg tablet could be broken into quarters, taking 1/4 twice a day; this one pill would last 2 days, thus really only need three 8mg pills at the most. But doctors will prescribe 30 in order to get you hooked and then you are stuck taking them forever and if ad when you do try to get off them, you'll fight like hell due to the intense withdrawals. However there is another Rx called Subutex that facilitates helping with withdrawals and can be used in conjunction with opiate pain meds. Subutex is the miracle pill, not Suboxone, because it's not addictive nor does it have the withdrawal side effects that the Suboxone has. The reason why is Suboxone has the buprenorphine and naloxone. It's the naloxone that gets people hooked and with major withdrawals if you take it more than 5-6 days in a row. The Subutex however just contains the Buprenorphine, an opiate agonist) which will take away the opiate withdrawals from any pain med or even heroin since that ingredient works as a opiate agonists,buprenorphine contains chemicals that link with opioid receptors in the brain to reduce pain and produce feelings of well-being. Before it was approved for opioid addiction treatment, buprenorphine was prescribed for many years as a pain reliever. When it’s taken in the prescribed doses, buprenorphine replicates the actions of opioid drugs — only to a much lower degree.But unlike Suboxone, Subutex can be taken with Oxycodone or any other opiate pain medicine. Typically it is prescribed "for pain" but is used to substitute taking an opiate pain reliever or in conjunction. I've used it for years. On days I'm just lying around and I don't NEED to take one of my oxy's or I wanna go thru the entire day without my Oxy's but know I will go into heavy withdrawals, I can take one Subutex for the entire day and have absoluetly no withdrawals. If I take Subutex for 3 days, I can be clean off of any physical withdrawls from my Oxy's and have went as long as 2 weeks without taking anything, but am able to go back to taking opiate pain pills when I need them and quit for extended periods and not have any negative withdrawals, but I cannot do that at all with Suboxone.
