Help Would I have to quit taking hydrocodone before SN method?

[Circles]

Maybe I'm just overthinking, but I just don't want to fuck this up. From the drug interactions I've looked up with hydrocodone, the interactions with meto is 'Moderate' but with the Tagamet it says 'Major'. It says the following for the interaction with Tagamet:

'Cimetidine (Tagamet) may increase the blood levels of hydrocodone. This may increase side effects such as drowsiness, dizziness, lightheadedness, difficulty concentrating, and impairment in thinking and judgment. In severe cases, low blood pressure, respiratory distress, fainting, coma, or even death may occur.

I don't know anything if this will interfere with the process or not. Please help.

You could overdose on hydromorphone rather than sn if you had a supply.

Did you check the interaction with SN? SN is also one of the substances you can search on the interactions check.

Why not just skip out on Tagamet and use Milk of Magnesia or some other type of magnesium hydroxide antacid instead? The benefits are twofold; 1. acid reduction is on the spot so to speak whereas Tagamet is targeting source of acid production and 2. little to no interaction with other drugs.

I believe that opiates reduce the efficacy of SN. There was a chart floating around here a couple months ago. I'm sure someone has access to it.

Yes I did it earlier but showed no results but since I saw your message I rechecked under the generic name and it said 'Major':

Drug Interaction Report: sodium nitrite, acetaminophen / hydrocodone

View detailed report of drug-drug and drug-food interactions for sodium nitrite, acetaminophen / hydrocodone

www.drugs.com

'Using Sodium Nitrite together with acetaminophen may increase the risk of methemoglobinemia, a condition that can lead to oxygen deprivation in tissues and vital organs due to reduced oxygen-carrying capacity of the blood.'

Isn't that what SN does by itself? So maybe it wouldn't matter if I stop taking it?

Don't have that sadly. It's hydroCODONE unless it's the same thing idk anything.

I guess but I don't know how to get it and if I have to get it prescribed by a doctor then that's out of my way.

Thanks, may I ask if you know why it'd reduce the efficacy? I hope it's still here.

3rd benefit: Milk of Magnesia is OTC, no prescription needed. Check your local pharmacy or shop for usually a blue bottle.

I had the same idea as you. I planned on getting as high as I could on heroin then taking the SN. Some kind soul posted a link that basically said SN and opiates don't play well together. I'll try looking for it.

It would potentiate the effect of SN, methemoglobinemia, so it would be good to take acetaminophen with SN.

 

[gus.nixon]

Benzos, if you can get a hold of them, seem to work well with SN too.

 

[IrRegularjoe]

Sorry, I read that wrong. Hydromorphone and hydrocodone are not the same thing. You can search for Opioid Equianalgesic Conversion on google. It will compare the strength of each opiod. Starting from codeine to fetynal.

 

[Aap]

They are not the same, but hydrocodone is metabolized to hydromorphone during phase 2 metabolism. Unless OP is taking extremely large amounts of hydrocodone or is in a unique metabolic situation, the taking of a single dose of cimetidine is unlikely to have much of any effect.

 

[IrRegularjoe]

Hydromorphone 7.5 mg oral = Hydrocodone 30 mg oral

HydroMORPHONE can be lethal at 100-200 mg according to the book final exit.

Bumping, lest our good @Circles miss this clear answer. (((Hug)))
