I also believe that the folks that produce OxyCotin came up with a new formula to keep people from snorting it. Apparently that caused a lot of pill heads to drift toward heroin.


True. This is exactly what turned me to fent. If you grind up the new formula and snorted it... you wound up with a nose full of elmers glue type substance. You could dissolve them in warm soda overnight to release all the oxy but it wasn't the same as snorting the original version.

Everyone including LE is assuming this is 100% pure fentanyl which is certainly is not. If it was then just getting some on your skin would kill you.. or just breathing a little airborne dust. Its been bonded with a binder and MASSIVELY diluted.

Just to put this into perspective. Fentanyl is dosed in micrograms for therapeutic effect. Usually 25-100 mcg. 97lbs is almost 44 trillion micrograms.


So it's more potent then LSD? Dayum! I'm very glad I never really enjoyed using opiates recreationally. That shite is scary.

Small amounts are put into capsules and sold that way as well.


I doubt dealers have scales that are that sensitive and accurate to give a correct dosage. That's why LSD is diluted in water, and spread over hundreds of doses. If you tried pure Crystal, you would absolutely hate life for a couple days.

Truly awestruck by this. In comparison to alternatives, what does a 20mg oxycontin pill cost on the street today?

Think about it... does anyone ever get 100% pure oxy? NO.

A 20mg oxy tablet weighs maybe a half gram. Yet if you are caught with a large quantity they weigh it in Oz or pounds. Then people try to convert the pounds to MG without taking into account that 97% of the pills are binders. Same applies with fent

You can get about $1 per mg of oxy on the street

Depends on which variant you have. Brand name oxy... 15 bucks because most people dont want it due to the new time release formula. Oxy mixed with tylenol is just worth a few dollars. The stuff people want is roxycodone which is instant release and still snortable. A 20mg roxy will cost you 20-30.

The bulk seizures like this one are pretty close to pure. There has already been some overdoses by officers who came into contact with it while conducting the search or while trying to field test it.

If it was even remotely pure it would be treated as a chemical weapon... which it could easily be used for. People act like this stuff is being made by Heisenburg or something.. a guy who made completely fictional pure meth. Fentanyl is extracted from solution via a binder. Even right out of the mexican lab it isnt close to being pure.

Maybe so.

I just know there has already been a few instances of officers getting just a little bit on their skin and overdosing from it.

Scary shite.
