How to smoke oxycodone

Oxycodone is addictive because it acts on the brain’s reward center by using certain neurotransmitters. These neurotransmitters, such as dopamine and serotonin, are chemical messengers in the CNS that contribute to intense feelings of well-being or euphoria.


Oxycodone is usually prescribed in tablet form, and oral delivery is by far the most common means of abuse. It can also be crushed into a powder, however, and the resulting product can be inhaled into the nasal passage, or put into a pipe or vaporizer and smoked. Both of these other methods of administration result in faster transit of the substance to the brain and will result in the drug acting rapidly on the body, which can ultimately lead to severe side effects.

When oxycodone is smoked, rapid absorption of the drug induces a massive release of dopamine, which then initiates the euphoric “high” and enforces the drug’s potential for addiction.

What happens when you snort oxycodone?

Snort is to take  in a drug by nasal inhalation. For example, snorting cocaine is inhaling cocaine powder through the nose where it is absorbed through the nasal tissues into the bloodstream.

Oxycodone is a powerful prescription drug that is commonly abused by being crushed up and snorted. Snorting oxycodone allows the drug to enter the bloodstream more quickly, providing

Snorting Oxycodone is a dangerous practice that often leads to opioid dependence. 

Users perform this dangerous practice by first crushing their Oxycodone pills. 

They do this because snorting the drug speeds up its effect on the central nervous system. 

Snorting Oxycodone is linked to a wide variety of troubling mental and physical health concerns. While the most pressing is the high correlation to overdose deaths, there are other complications to be aware of. 

The short-term side effects of opioids include pain relief and feelings of relaxation and happiness. But other, more troubling side effects appear the longer you abuse opioids. Some of these harmful effects include:

Effects Of Snorting

Snorting Oxycodone is significantly more dangerous than taking the drug orally, and the effects can even be fatal.The main consequences of snorting Oxycodone is damage to the nose, throat, and respiratory system. The effects of these health risks range from mild to life-threatening, and can include:

Because Oxycodone is a central nervous system (CNS) depressant, the risk for overdose is significantly higher when the drug is crushed and snorted due to the profound respiratory depression that can occur. An oxycodone user’s breathing may slow down to a dangerously low rate, which can result in respiratory failure, coma, or death. Additionally, many people will also abuse alcohol and other drugs to amplify or mitigate the effects of snorting oxycodone. Mixing oxycodone with CNS depressants significantly raises the risk of overdose as it can cause increased confusion and respiratory failure.

When snorting oxycodone, you may damage your nasal passages and raise your tolerance to the drug as well as build a dependence, which means the body will go through withdrawal after you stop taking it.

Snorting Is Deadly

When someone is snorting oxycodone, they may also be more likely to start using heroin or to purchase black market pills that can be deadly. An increasing number of people report that their heroin addiction started by abusing prescription painkillers like oxycodone. If you’re abusing a drug like oxycodone and you buy pills from a street dealer, you may end up with something like fentanyl instead of what you think you’re buying. Fentanyl is highly potent and deadly, and if you were to snort it thinking it was oxycodone, it could result in your immediate death.

How to intravenous oxycodone?

Intravenous infusion of oxycodone is a predictable, stable, and safe method of drug administration.

 Intravenous (IV) administration of opioid analgesics intended for oral use is not uncommon; yet, little is known about the relative abuse potential of these drugs when administered intravenously to recreational opioid abusers without physical dependence. 

Among the administration methods for analgesics, IV infusion is widely used for the management of cancer pain in Korea. IV administration has particular advantages in the form of faster onset of pain relief and more predictable pharmacokinetics compared to other routes of drug administration.Strong opioid analgesics, such as morphine, fentanyl, and alfentanil, which are commonly used for moderate-to-severe pain, are given through IV administration. However, these opioid analgesics act on the central nervous system causing sedation, discomfort, and pruritus and other side effects such as respiratory depression, nausea, and vomiting.

Oxycodone has been recommended as an alternative to morphine for the treatment of cancer pain. Oxycodone is a semisynthetic opioid, which is synthesized from thebaine. 

Studies on pain management using IV administration methods in patients with cancer are somewhat lacking unlike the post surgical pain management, which have been actively researched.
