Dr. Savage I presume?
You should do your research before you post smack you obviously know nothing about it hot shot. The doctor told us it was 10x stronger but I am sure he doesn't know shit compared to you. Since you posted this smack I thought I would look it up and this is what I came up with.
Types of Opioids:
1. Naturally Occuring (sap from opium poppy)
Morphine (10% opium by weight)
- High gastrointestinal side effects (constipation)
Codeine (methylmorphine, ~0.5% opium)
2. Semi- Synthetics
Heroin (diacetylmorphine): Sched 1
- 10x more potent than morphine
- Converted to form of morphine (6-acetyl morphine) in brain
Semi-Synthetic Analgesics:
Hydormorphone (Dilaudid): Sched 2
- Stronger than Heroin, surgical pain treatment
Hydrocodone (Hycodan)
Oxycodone (Percodan or Percoset)
- 2x more potent than morphine as pill, ˝ potent as IV
- Long lasting, low gastrointestinal side effects
3. Synthetics
Phenylpiperidines
Fentanyl ~5000x more potent than heroin
Meperidine (Demerol, MPPP): surgery
Methadone and Congeners
Methadone (Dolophine)
- Strong narcotic ~3x strong as morphine, but weaker than heroin
- Initially used as pain killer, than as heroin addict treatment
- Less gastrointestinal side effects
Propoxyphene (Darvon) Weak ~ aspirin
Benzomorphans “non- addictive opiates” but hallucinations at high doses, aversive
Pentazocine (Talwin)
4. Opioid Antagonists: Used for overdose
