snorting codeine

[high_down_under]

worth a try, or just easier to eat?

will sniffing it change the effects in anyway?
any risks?
etc etc

[JayBird]

Just take the tabs. They come mixed with acetominophen or whatever. They burn, and don't dissolve right. And it's just not worth going through that for simple codeine. Oxycontin, maybe.

[generic]

well if you do a cold water extraction you can get like 250mg of ceodeine with a minimal amount of aci..(whatever you call it in america we call it paracetamol)

[JayBird]

well if you do a cold water extraction you can get like 250mg of ceodeine with a minimal amount of aci..(whatever you call it in america we call it paracetamol)250mg is a fair amount of Codeine. Tylenol 3 contains 20mg of Codeine per tab, so you're talking about 12 1/2 tabs.

[Nimrod's Apprentice]

Don't do opiates, don't do pills, and do sniff pills whatever you do. Its fake and wussy, no real effects. You gotta pop them. If you want to sniff an opiate you mind as well just get some Oxy or heroin. And not waste your time on shitty pills and just die.

Codeine is converted to morphine by the liver after ingestion. Snorting won't work.

[DXMsucks]

Ermmmm yes snorting any opiates will work. It give more of a "rush" b/c of faster absorption rates in your mucos membranes.

But it isn't smart to snort up crushed pills. If you extract it is still a whole hell of alot better but still not to smart.

Saying snorting codein dosn't work is like saying snorting cocaine won't work, it just dosn't make sense.

I'm sorry... but you're clearly mistaken.. have you ever even tried to snort codiene?

Q) How is Codeine used?

A) Codeine can be administered orally (PO), subcutaneously (SC), intramuscularly (IM) and rectally (PR). Codeine cannot be safely administered by an intravenous (IV) injection as it may result in pulmonary oedema, facial swelling, dangerous release of histamines, and various cardiovascular effects. It cannot be administered intranasally (snorting). Codeine free base can be smoked on the aluminum foil ("chasing the dragon") similarly to smoking heroin (http://www.drugrehabamerica.net/FAQ-heroin.htm).

Yeah dumbass of course they aren't going to tell you to stick something up your nose....

Fuck you. It has to go through your fucking liver. Go fucking snort some codeine and then tell me if it works, untill then, keep your foot up your ass.

[Eugene]

Dude's right, codiene can't be snorted... it is metabolized into morphine in your liver. Also, there is a ceiling around 60mg where it's impossible to metabolize anymore...
So yeah, you're wrong, then when someone corrects you you respond with childish profanity and name calling, grow up, seriously.

[FareakinOut]

K, i've done codiene after i did a cold water extraction of it with my friend. It tasted like shit. It mellows you out though and we just had a nice calm conversation about basically everything for a few hours. And he said he liked walking around and it felt good or something..so he walked around in circles in my room for about 2 hours.lol Don't snort it. It's a nice once in a while thing. It made me feel good the next day too.

so wait, it magically bypasses the liver if it's absorbed through the mucus membranes of the nose rather than the GI tract ? :lol:
jesus somebody needs to go read up on their fucking anatomy.
snorting codeine will work fine, almost anything water soluble will work.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Insufflation#As_a_method_of_administering_drugs

it's even mentioned as one of the "commonly insufflated psychoactive substances"

[Lukec886]

I am prob. wasting my time but I thought that I would clear this up for anyone who is considering admistering codeine in this manner and is curious.
LSD is almost completley correct in his point. Codeine works in the body because it is metabolized and converted within the liver. Because of this it is the best route to take ir orally as a much greater amount will pass though the liver faster delivering the desired effect.
The drug is consumed by first pass metabolism as it goes through the cell walls of the gut and is filtered through the liver. If it is taken by insufflation the codeine, which is practially useless within the body until coverted, will eventually pass though the liver but in much lower concentration and over a longer period of time because it would be travelling with the blood stream as oppose to through the gut (the more direct route to the liver).
The effects from using this route of administration would be so small they would not even be sensed by the user and would probably experience more discomfort from the stinging of the nostrils and a nasty tasing drip than positive effects.

[dd3stp233]

For those of you that are arguing over this, it has never been proven exactly how codiene works to effect the body the way it does. According to this medical journal article,http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?cmd=Retrieve&db=PubMed&list_uids=11092114&dopt=Abstract
codiene conversion to morphine is not the primary way it effects the body(only about 5%). 80% of codiene is coverted to codeine-6-glucuronide, which is the primary active principal.

[4rson]

LSDPsychonaut im not trying to burst your bubble, but i stumbled across these forums by a google search of "snorting codeine" and the reason was because i just snorted a 50mg codiene( I dont think they have them in america, i got it from a panamanian pharmacy) and i got extremely high, and about to whole liver thing..your partially correct, but anything in the blood stream is filtered by the liver, and snorting something puts it in your blood stream, and it puts it there ALOT faster than digesting it cause it absorbs into your mucas membranes, i know that site says differently but they are misinformed...oh but even though i got high i would not recommend snorting it cause my nose is bleeding pretty bad, so its prolly not MEANT to be snorted..lol, but it can be done.

[Shocbomb]

No drug that is not water soluble should be snorted. You are just going to get a real bad headache a fucked up nose and its a waist of the drug. all lowerclass pain killers should be just eaten thats it. only shoot and snort the stronger opite painkillers that are watersoluble ? Also 4rson not all drugs that hit the blood are filtered buy your liver when you use Drugs IV it buy passes the liver and goes right to the brain. and like Lukec886 says the only reason you people are getting any high at all from snorted codeine is because of the drip when snorted thats it. You are better off and will get a better high and alot less nose problums from eating all painkillers that are not water soluble ! Bottom line its just a waste

[cokebugz]

i snort codeine regularily, it works for some i guess, the codeine i sniff is pure phosphate, the main reason niggaz say it dun work, is because there is no pure codeine available unless u extract the shit out of it

[36fuckin5]

Wow, you guys are misinformed.

First off, it's not water solubility that matters when insufflating drugs. It's lipid solubility. This is my source of that information. (http://panthrax.host.sk/snort_benzos.html) It specifically talks about benzos, but shows that what matters is lipid solubility.

Also, codeine phosphate (the ingredient in Tylenol 3) is readily water soluble (http://www.rxlist.com/cgi/generic/codphos.htm), as almost all opiates are. Why else would a CWE (cold water extraction for those who may not know) leave your codeine in the water while your acetaminophen floats on top? If it wasn't water-soluble, the codeine would float. I can't find a legit source to say anything about codeine sulphate.

Now as to whether or not it works intranasally, I have no real idea. I just thought I'd clear up some of the arguments by posting good sources of info.

[subHerban Greens]

So wait... all those times I snorted codeine... I didn't get high? Huh...
*sigh*
I know it works. I've snorted it and gotten as high as you can get with codeine (which isn't very high compared to other opiates)

[JahRed24]

What about Hydromorphone? Is it better to snort or eat? (i know the "RIGHT" way to do them is stick em in ur arm but i aint gonna do that sooo..) snort or eat? what do u thinks better when it comes to Hydromorphone aka Dilaudid!

[untainted]

Fuck you. It has to go through your fucking liver. Go fucking snort some codeine and then tell me if it works, untill then, keep your foot up your ass.
i've been snorting codeine all night and i've been getting fucked up so u must not know what your talking about. the shit's great but it kind of clogs up my nose for a bit so i have to take breaks between every few lines.

[tothedome1]

sorry, i didnt read all the posts and im sure someone has said it already, but if you snort something it will enter your mucous membranes and then enter the bloodstream. from here the blood passes thru the whole body obviously and fucking goes right thru your liver and it metabolizes it. so yes you can fucking snort it.

[Shocbomb]

Sorry man people who snort low yield pain killers that are not water soluble like Perc's, Codeine,Vicoden really no nothing about drugs and how to use them to begin with ? They should read up and do some research before they go putting shit in there body the wrong way. These people are really harming there body's bad for not much more of a high if any more at all. It something a older person should learn not to do in there years of doing drugs..I can see a young kid doing this but come on some of you who are in your late teens or early 20's should of found out long ago that its a fucking waste to snort low dose pain killers. Not to mention that its doing to your body.keep doing it you are going to need a new liver at the age of 35.and you lungs and arteries will be shot becasue all those binders and fillers clog up and block your Circulatory System and then go and fill up your lungs and ounce that shit starts filling up your lungs you can have countless medical problums even instant Death from Blood Clots and anurism's.Snorting and Shooting up pills that are not water soluble is worthless the high is not worth the trouble or what it does to your body.Its down right horrible for your health !!!!!!!!!!

[Verisimilitude]

Don't do opiates, don't do pills, and do sniff pills whatever you do. Its fake and wussy, no real effects. You gotta pop them. If you want to sniff an opiate you mind as well just get some Oxy or heroin. And not waste your time on shitty pills and just die.
Can I just say that this post is possibly the most retarded thing I have ever seen on this forum?

First of all, (and by the way you Nimrod, your name is appropriate) your inability to type what you actually mean to say pretty much destroys your credibility.

"do sniff pills whatever you do." pretty sure with your ridiculous attitude and the two previous statements you made that this isn't what you meant.

"its fake and wussy, no real effects" sniffing pills is fake? what, you mean it isn't real? people don't do it, all the time? its wussy? people who sniff pills are wussy? - if you are going to make claims like these, you should qualify them. What exactly makes sniffing pills fake and wussy? Perhaps because sniffing pills has "no real effects". Really? because oxycontin, ms contin, dilaudid, and several other powerful opiates are PILLS and if you sniff them, they have REAL effects. its reeeealllly easy to OD snorting oxy or whatever. I'd call that a "real" effect.

Ok, so continuing, "you mind as well get some oxy or Heroin"
I "mind as well"? learn to fucking type. If this isn't a typo, then you are an even bigger idiot than you appear.

Also, as I stated before, Oxy IS a PILL. So when you say I should get some oxy or heroin and "not waste your time on shitty pills"...

To conclude: If you are this ignorant about opiates or just don't care to educate yourself about them, get off this forum.

[polecat]

oooh, tempers flare!
But anyways, snorting codiene does work(or that's what my friends tell me). On the other hand, I'd have to agree that snorting codiene is stupid, mainly because of the reasons shocbomb said. Unextracted Tylenol 3 is filled with all sorts of shit that you don't want entering your nasal passages. Plus, it hurts like shit! Just pop it and wait the 15-20 minutes.

And it's codeine, possibly the lamest painkiller out there. Save your nose for something better.

teeehehe

[Eating Peanuts]

okay... all i know is that i snorted about 1/4 a pill of Tylenol 3(30mg codeine) today and shit was i fcked up; i didnt crash for at least 4 hours.

[JahRed24]

Snorting Tylenol 3's wont work...suprisingly snorting suboxone works very good, it seems to kick in faster and seems to last longer and more effective cuz u absorb the buprenorphine better up the nose..

[subHerban Greens]

Snorting Tylenol 3's wont work...suprisingly snorting suboxone works very good, it seems to kick in faster and seems to last longer and more effective cuz u absorb the buprenorphine better up the nose..They will get you a little buzz, but 1/4 of a pill won't do what that dude is saying. I could snort Tylenol 3s and not feel that.
