Pentazocine/Naloxone - questions about this drug

Hello everyone, my name is Keyth, this is my first post.

About a year ago my doctor was trying me out on different pain meds for my back when she did a random piss test and found darvocet which she didn't prescribe. So you can imagine what happened next, she sent me to the psychiatrist and recommended eval. etc.

This really fuckin sucked since my doctor is on the board of directors at the hospital I go to and she had JUST finished creating a new pain management program that consisted of physical therapy, narcotic pain med Rx's, and weekly narc. injections! to patients who qualify - qualify as in "pass piss tests"! So yeah I was a little more than upset but I had a good relationship with my doctor and she decided to give me another chance since she understood pain and was pro narcotics.

So she prescribed me a little drug called Pentazocine which I had heard of before and new it was a opiate. It also had Naloxone in it too which I had heard of before but didn't know anything about. So I was excited and glad she had given me a second chance. I picked up my Rx and went home to enjoy some pain relief and relaxation. Boy was I in for a trip, a BAD one.

Turns out that Naloxone is an opiate receptor antagonist which means it blocks your feel good centres in your brain! If you try to abuse pentazocine/naloxone it will actually make you feel like you're withdrawaling from opiates even though it has opium in it!!!

After I popped a few I started feeling really bad so I did some research on the internet and found out what it really was. I was so pissed and I felt betrayed by my doctor. I've never been back to the hospital since.

Maybe she was trying to help lower my tolerance to opiates and bring my recoptors back to normal so that on my follow up visit she could prescribe some REAL narcs. Or maybe she's a vindictive, malicious bitch and I should bend her over and punish her on her desk the next time I see her!


Okay so enough of the story. I was cleaning out my drawers tonight and I came across the bottle of pentazocine/naloxone and I got a brilliant (or not so brilliant) idea. What if I could somehow remove the naloxone, through some simple chemistry, and walla, enjoy the pentazocine as it was meant to be enjoyed. I know very little about chemistry but I know that people have been modifying narcotic pain killers for years. The whole point of adding naloxone to the pentazocine in the first place was because people had found ways to make it stronger and were abusing it. The naloxone stopped that! I mean who wants to feel like they're comming off a bad heroin binge! Not worth the effort, I wouldn't reccomend that experience to anyone.

So if anyone has any ideas as to how I might be able to alter this drug for use, please share! Thanks in advance.

 

dude i cant really help you on that one but I just had to say the highlighted parts are some hilarious shit!

is your doctor good-looking? i sometimes dream that i meet some fine ass bitch and she turns out to be a doctor, and we have crazy sex in her office and she prescribes me all types of shit. man thats a good fantasy...

 

i think they put the naloxone in there to make it antiabusable......now with suboxone (buprenorphine/naloxone), i have never heard of a easy (or any) way to seperate the good shit from the bad shit, unfortuanetly the government or fda or whoever did it was smart. I think the naloxone makes you sick period, because i took 2mg buprenorphine which also contained .5mg's of naloxone and just felt nauschis (sp.??), ppl in other countrys always say buprenorphine is a great high so im assuming the naloxone just makes ppl sick...

 

Pentazocine is a really poor pain killer and the side effects are not worth any "trip" you may experience. Side effects are similar to those of most opiates but Pentazocine may be more likely to cause hallucinations.

Back in the days Pentazocine was mixed with a antihistamine named tripelennamine. People would inject this combo and it would create a high like heroin. I had never heard of people takng this combo orally but I suppose it's possible. Anyhow due to this abuse they then added naloxone to the tablets. I believe there are still some preperations without naloxone, but if you had a "dirty" piss test I doubt you would even get that.
