[Khalifkk]

Hey all i have been on around 40 mg of ox for a couple months now and was going to try to possibly go off and today trying vicodin.. will i have withdrawal symptoms still if taking vicodin or valium? Any reccomedations or feedback is much appreciated!

I've moved this to addiction and recovery @Khalifkk, I think it's more appropriate for this section. A conversion chart could certainly help of course.

No worries.  A conversion chart?

Yeah, a chart that shows the relative strengths of all opiate/opiod meds using 1mg of m0rph as the base level,  a web search will reveal more!

Thing with the numerous op8 conversion charts  I find is the different ways to administer one drug can effect the score of another. Say for example I was looking for X IV (The only method shown,) tried to  compare it to  something I used that way but couldn't find anything, so looked for IV to oral and the dosage looked completely wroong think it was 10/15 ml x compared to 200mg Y oral.  It may have been right. BUt it would be a risk trying it out..

Plus i've seen other contradictions on difference sites. Are they reall accurate,, or a rough guide line with large margins for error?

Considering varying metabolisms, I think they have to be rough, though they do show that with X ranges 1.5-2 times stronger than Y etc. I'd agree though,  there must be something pretty definitive somewhere.

Sometimes you don't even get all the different ways to administer on some charts . It starts getting confusing when you have to flick between charts to figure out dosage for different methods of use .  At least with benzo charts they seem right from what I can tell because most benzo are taken oraly. Unless you're lucky to get IV benzoe  except some benzo  meds don't have a di^z comparison. But the vast majority do, which are easy to understand.

Taken orally, a conventional conversion chart puts 5mg Oxy equal to 10mg Hydro... 

Although I'd say it's more like 5mg Oxy to 7.5mg hydro in my experience... 

But, the switch would mean introducing a whole lot of liver killing paracetamol into your day?.. 

~P~

I overdosed on paracetamol once, it made me scared to use it again. 

There are opiates without paracetamol - all I use is DHC - obviously a very mild version. Hopefully, eventually, no opiates or valium. My usage has decreased lately, so here's hoping...
