Title: Is Codeine any fun?
Post by: PuertoRico on May 04, 2013, 09:01 am
i have some pescription codeine, never tried to use for recreational use and I have read a few things about cold water extraction but am not too confident as a paracetamol OD is apparently fucking nasty!

Anyone had much fun with codeine? The stuff I have is NHS standard, 30mg codeine phosphate hemihydrate / 500mg paracetamol.

Let me know if any of you guys have managed to get anything fun out of these.. I so far am pretty disappointed!

If you enjoy morphine and constipation then you will enjoy a large amount of codeine.

Codeine turns into morphine in your liver.  One fifth of the amount of codeine that you took.

200mg of codeine will turn into 40mg morphine in your liver.

Yeah, codeine doesn't do anything by itself to you, it requires your liver to metabolize it into morphine, kind of the same process that happens when you take andro or other prohormones that "aren't steroids" but once your liver metabolizes them- tada! they're the desired substance. At that point, it's just morphine.

I've only had vicodin, which is semi-synthetic and much (12x?) stronger than an equivalent amount of codeine. The same precautions that apply to vicodin apply to a lot of codeine brands: they come with tylenol in them, so be mindful of just how much tylenol you are taking

Very informative guys, I will do some more research on cold water extraction and erowid experience vaults.

Looks like codeine isnt going to be the thing for me though. Thanks for your help!

Also remember that due to the liver's mechanism of absorption, about 400 or 500 mg of codeine is the max you will be able to absorb, please check the exact number but it is around that.
