How To Snort The New Formula Opana Er (Page 28)

I became a pain patient after I fell off a horse in March of last year and sustained spinal injuries which are still VERY painful. Opana ER was the first thing doctors gave me that helped at all and now that they have changed the formula I'm in a lot more pain. I want to break down the formula so I can insufflate it, as I am told I may get more pain relief and increase bioavailability of the drug. The new formula hardly offers the same pain relief, Please help me!

REPORT

I am a Paramedic, not a doctor but in my line of work, I've seen it all. I was to hurt and had been on Fentenyl Patch 100mg/hr for right at six months. I was able to perform my job task after being on the patch for a few months. Now I asked my PCP to take me off of them and he did. And put me on the 20mg Opana (Name brand) which works much better than generics, although many will argue about this, I know from first hand any medicine made by Milan has just enough medication put in it to be able to sell with this being said Opana as with any Class A narcotic is bad to even think about breaking it in half and snorting it of all things can and will kill you! As any ER (Time Release) all the medication can be anywhere in that pill form and the other part have nothing, this is why it is so dangerous in doing this and if your medication is not helping, talk with your PCP (Primary Care Giver) doctor and I am most certain he/she will either give you a higher dose or change the medication. As myself Fentenyl 100mg was not my cup of tea, anything that makes me feel un-normal I refuse to take nor get out of control that I am unable to ween myself off of. Also it is the law in any state a doctor does a drug screen and find abuse he/she is to discharge you as a patient (drug screen b2 by blood) can find this abuse, Some doctors are plain pill subscribers which sooner they will have their FDA license pulled as they are people like myself will turn one in, in a second...don't abuse get the help you need!

I live near buffalo ny. My dr was arrested last year for writing bad scripts. He was the second in my area to be busted handing out strong pills for fakers and he used a DEA agents pen to sign s b.s. script in exchange for a gas grill. Dummy! Anyways my problem is is im a real pain sufferer.I broke my back on two seperate occasions.due to dr.b getting busted I am very UNABLE to find a new dr to manage my pain care. I have tried pain management specialist and pcp and everything in between. I am looking for a doc to help with my back and help me regain my pain meds. I am a mother of four kids and this time ive spent with no help has made me a horrible mother because I can't get up and out to do anything with them. HELP ME PLEASE! The only relief ive gotten in the last year was from street pharmacists. Im not a druggie just a mother trying to play with her kids snd go for walks again.

You as "THE PATIENT" have all rights to your medical records and I'd get them. Then find a pain doctor in your local area and I am most certain by looking at your medical history they will resume you on the pain meds they feel will fit your purpose. I would have done this long ago, sadly we do have doctors out here is nothing but a pill writer, which they are being very watched by the FDA, now in most states if they do the new b2 blood draw any drug will show how it was taking. Unlike you had a PCP that had you on medications and go cold turkey, you're lucky your alive from withdraws. You need to obtain your old medical records regardless his/her privileges have been taken. Take that step and I hope you get the relief you deserve for you and your Children! Please update me on this matter!

I really liked your story as I am a Medic and was on the 100mg every 48 hours and you are correct, the patch does make you feel worn and sleep a lot, I had my PCP to take me off of them over night and he put me in the Opena 20mg ER and they don't seem to work taking in between Perocet 10.325 every 4-6 hours. I am so proud of getting off of those patches and so many abuse them and what they are made with, I decided after wearing the 100mg every 48 hours in a 6 month period of time I gained 25 lbs. I am very small, 100-108 lbs and gained weight very rapid, these are nothing to play with and will kill you in seconds if abused in anyway. Now that I am taking the Opena ER 20mg is not stopping the pain or actually time release. But I'd rather suffer in pain than to wear any Fentenyl patch, either my PCP took me off or I went cold turkey!

It is sad how much misinformation is posted here! If your not 100% positive about something, then don't post it...or at least verify your information!
Don't accept anything you read here as factual...ask a doctor or pharmacist...all other health care professionals may or may not know what they are talking about!(even though they mean well)
Information and advice is only as good as the source!

Hello,everyone the answer to the original question how do you fix the new opana er so you can snort them is a simple question to answer but let me first tell my story before I decide to give the answer or not?I first started by taking lortab 10 after a car accident in 98.I stayed on the lortab 10 until I was sent to a pain clinic,which put me on Roxiecodone.You know how it is the more you take the more you need!Then once I started to snort the roxy's I never went back to swallowing them.My father who is disabled and is in pain all the time got Lortab and Opana er 5mg stop sign shaped pills that I had never heard of.First I looked them up online to find out that they were once outlawed in the USA back in the 70's because people were shooting them and dying so I knew they were probly pretty strong!The first one I took was a 5mg from daddy,that I of course crushed it up like I did the roxi and it knocked my damn socks off!Strong Strong stuff that I fell in love with off the bat!The next time I went to my doctor I asked if I could get a Long acting medication and that my father had given me one of his 5mg Opana and it helped me better than my 30mg Roxiecodone so he wrote me a script of 60 10mg Opana er and the 30mg roxi for breakthrough medicine!All was good so I thought I was on cloud 9 all the time not just a few hours through the day but 24/7.Well I stayed on the Opana Er for 3 year all the way up to 40mg 2 times a day!Then the bad news came one day I went to get mine filled and when I got home they were hard as a rock and felt like they were madeout of plastic.I called the pharmacist to make sure I got the right prescription and he said yeah they have made them abuse proof like they did OxyContin about a year or two before.Well at first I tried taking them by mouth and was so sick,never been so sick in my life!The week before they changed them I had been doing some work cutting a rear fender off my mustang gt that I had wrecked that caused me to have to start taking pain meds in the first place,when I bought a new Dremel at walmart and that little sucker would cut,grind through anything I threw at it!The second day of the new Opana ER I thought well I bet anything I could grind one of these things down to dust and continue insufflating them so that's exactly what I did!There are these little round stone grinding wheels that usually come with a Dremel that will grind the abuse proof Opana ER down to a fine dust and you want lose anything!How does it work Great!!!They seemed to work better for me than the old stop sign opana did!

I agree that you have no idea if he is a junkie. And even if someone is it is not your judgement. If you do not want to post on a question then pass it by. Also just for the record i have known two different doctors who have told their patients to crush their pills to get the relief quicker. I do agree with some drugs this can be dangerous but instead of trying to insult people and judge them maybe you should know a little more about it the situation.

Riley.. No doctor in their right mind is going to have a patient crush up and snort a pain medicine. You are making this up... Also, their situation is irrelevant...abuse is abuse...and a junkie is a junkie! Why do you want to sugar coat it?

To the person who said no Dr. Would tell someone to crush em' up, that is factually inaccurate my doc is a tad old school and he has suggested in extreeme cases of pain such as the middle of the night that however unpleasant I could snort my oxycodome. So this is true some Dr's may suggest it not often but it happens. Just stop judging and post relevant stuff, the fact is the oppanas don't work they're junk and my doc will only give me three op 10s a day and I can take ten and not even feel anything.

Liza Jane It wasn't you that was the Ahole. And I'm sorry for what you went through. My case is very similar to yours.
In so glad you were able to kick it and take your Meds as prescribed. God Bless you and your children.

barron775,
That many pills won't do anything to you because your a junkie with a bad tolerance to opiates. Your not supposed to "feel" anything, just get some(not complete) relief from pain.

The only bad thing about this is that when snorted those fillers get in your lungs and can cause serious damage. I'm not judging you I promise I am just telling you the truth. It hasn't stopped anyone I know from doing it but it is very bad for your lungs. God Bless you!

My son has told me he is addicted to Opana. He acts like he is on heroin whenever I have seen him. He babbles, is confused, drops off sleeping in his food and has no concept of time. Is this really how Opana does a person? I can't believe a word he says. I am heartsick. Help!

To Mom,
Opanas ingredient is Oxymorphone, an opiate, just like heroin is. I'm sorry you are going thru this. You may want to join a group for family and friends of narcotic adicts... cant remember what it is called...anyone? Be strong and good luck!
