Would some kindly and knowledgeable person care to post the method for cold water extraction (of codeine from tablets that have 30 mg codeine and paracetamol 500 mg - that is generic tylenol with codeine) - I know it is likely on erowid and other sites I cannot access at work, so could someone post a "recipe" here? PLEASE - recipe for DUMMIES, I am not a chemist, and I am not going to go to a chemistry store and buy stuff I would not normally have around the house, but everybody knows, all that tylenol is bad for your liver------
http://adhpage.tripod.com/coldwater.htm That links works for me. I've done it twice. Don't leave it in the freezer to long!
Aspirin and Ibuprofen have codeine or oxycodone in it? I never new. Gona try this cold water extraction.
~ if the label says it has codeine in it; but if the ingredients label just says "aspirin" or "acetylsalacilic acid" or "ibuprofin" or "paramacetol" or "acetaminophen" --- then THAT'S what's in it... & that's all that's in it, OK? & in the USA there are no OTCs ("over the counter" pills) with ANY narcotics in them --- pretty much all narcotics are prescription (well, maybe parecgoric or donnagelPG can be bought w/o a prescription, but you will still hafta sign for them (& show ID); & if you think you're gonna get high on paregoric or donnagelPG you've got another think coming....) (great for stopping diarrhea in kids, tho) in canada, there are OTC pills w/ACC (aspirin, caffein, codeine) in 'em, but only 1/8 grain codeine (like 8 milligrams & that ain't much)... (for comparison, a "tylenol 3" pill has 1/2 grain (~30 mg) of codein in a "base" of acetaminophen (ummm, 350 mg?) the codeine (& caffeine, if added to the formulation) are water soluble, but the asprin (or acetaminphen, whatever is the base in your pills...) is not & settles out at the bottom of the glass... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ there, is that as clear as mud yet?
hey, i just don't want folks thinkin' that they can get "high" offa some advils or tylenols, OK? ~ play safe out there, friends - you want this ol' mortal coil to be good for at least 3 score & 10, mmmmkay?
