Yes and very.
Oxycodone is really addictive,
I think 8 80mg of oxycodone is leathal.
Oxycodone is C-II controlled substance meaning that is Highly addictive.
You can do that many if you have built up that great of a tolerance for opium.
Oxycontin is comprised of the chemical oxycodone. Oxycodone is a synthesized chemical derived from the natural opium codeine. Opium is used as an antagonist to endorphin receptors in the brain to help block pain. Repeated and heavy use can often cause tolerance and physical addiction. Opium is one of the most addictive substances on the planet. Its ability to block pain makes living with ever day aches unbearable to people who have grown accustom to not feeling any at all. Those people will often repeatedly use opium to avoid any pain.
They are extremely addictive.
it depends on their level of tolerance already built up. I used to inject fentanyl and no one believed me that I did that and still survived. what they didn't realize was that I overdosed every time and was brought back with CPR. 8 oxy's is an awful lot and I would be reluctant to believe someone could live, but who knows.
Oxycontin is prescription heroin. It's the same drug class, it just prescribed by a doctor. that's the only difference. It's extremely addicting and has proven to be fatal for many many people.
8 80's seems quite excessive.
Oxycontins (Oxycodone) is extremely addictive. The reason behind their addictive nature is the fact that they trigger the brain's "pleasure center", helping mask the pain that your body is in. Because there is an artificial trigger for this pleasurable feeling, your brain's natural pleasure trigger becomes less active (the brain figures it doesn't have to work as hard, since something else is triggering the pleasurable feeling). The more you use Oxycodone, the more your brain relies on the artificial trigger for the good feeling, so that part of the brain becomes more dormant. This is called "dependence". You are dependent on that chemical just to feel "normal".
Addiction occurs when your body feels like it needs to have more and more Oxycodone to sustain a normal feeling. If you give in to this desire, your going to need even more to sustain even a normal feeling. At this point, you're caught in a very bad cycle of addiction.
The best way to counter this is to start reducing the amount you take over a long period of time. If you're taking 8, figure out a way to take those 8 pills on a schedule... the same time, everyday. Once your body adjusts to that schedule, rearrange your schedule so you're only taking 7 pills. Once your body adjusts, rearrange the schedule for 6 pills. Keep going until you're down to nothing.
Hope this helps!
YES! they are the MOST addictive pill on the market. its basically heroin in pill form. i have seen it firsthand. My moms doctor gave them to her(maybe or maybe not knowing she already struggled with narcotic addiction) when she had her foot run over by a car and she ended up in rehab.
if you try to buy these on the street, an 80 mg pill can go for about $50 to $80. thats about a dollar a mg and the sad part is, people pay that much for ONE pill, imagine what they pay for a bottle of them. (the source site will tell you!)
they are VERY addictive!
