Sniff it, unless it has apap then swallow it. Ive tried smoking oxy, and honestly to me its a waste. If i had a shit ton of 30mg oxys i might smoke one or two just to mix it up, but snorting is def the way to go with oxy IMO.

I have done a metric shit tonne of Oxy over the years, and I mostly agree.  In my experience, snorting it definitely brings on the effects facter, and can be more intense in some ways..but I always seemed to blow through my supply faster this way.

I have never had any luck smoking it, but for people who have never been able to develop a sufficient countermeasure to the nausea of high doses, this seems to be the preferred method. 

In the probably hundreds of grams (yes, grams) I have done, I find that taking it orally on a controlled empty stomache, eating maybe 10 minutes after dosing, to be of the greatest efficacy.  If taking orally, try swallowing a glass of pure grapfruit juice a little while before hand, then take some antacids immediatly before taking the oxy   Grape fruit juice is a natural potentiator of of many opiates and will increase the duration of the effects.  Also, cimetidine is an over the counter antacid that has a minor affinity to the opiate receptors and will potentiate the effects as well...be carefull though, because this will cause an added tax on your liver.

Well, I have some tonic water and am getting a 20mg oxy. My usual dose orally is upwards from 100mg, with the tonic water. Will sniffing it really do anything? If my choice is a 5 minute high or nothing, I'll take the 5 minutes, yknow?

How much stronger is sniffing than taking orally, as a percent? Thanks for your advice

This depends largely on the form of Oxy that you are getting.  Instant release or Exteneded?  The difference here can be told in the pill labeling.  All ER (and brand name is always OxyContin) pills are marked OP in the USA, and they cannot be smoked or snorted due to a gelling agent that was put in place to discourage illlicit use...they will literally clog up your nose.  If there is no marking for some reason, the consistancy of the pill will be like wax vs powder when crushed.

There is a method of making the OP pills snortable though, I have had mixed results.  Basically, grind the pill up into a fine mesh, then microwave on a plate until all the powder has turned brown.   Take out, stick in the freezer, then pull out and scrpe off the resulting charred stuff.

If 100MG isnt having any effect orally, then 20mg isnt going to do much snorted...but may just be your best bet.

Its oxycontin extended release "original formula" supposed to be the crushable kind. At this point I'm thinking I'll just smoke it, but your saying it wont smoke right?

oxycodone is a strange compound in that oral bioavailability is actually much better than intranasal. i've heard oral BA to range anywhere from 60-80%

if banging's not an option, and you aren't fiending for that taste in the back of your nostril, i recommend orally every time. if it is an original formulation OC it certainly can be smoked, but smoking pills is always a waste IMO. they weren't designed to be ingested that way and a great deal is lost in the process.

it's really a matter of preference, but if you want the most bang for your buck without rigs, oral is my go to route
