So I've been a long time reader but this is my first time posting... I have a couple of questions... I am a CPP and am prescribed 15mg oxycodone and 30 mg ms contin. I spoke with my doctor at my last appointment about my concerns about my tolerance as I have been increasing my dose every few months because my pain relief isn't the same as it used to be. I'm only 36 and don't want to end up having to take 100mgs to get my pain down to a 4/5 level where I can fully function. Anyways he said that there are things that we can try to help lower or maintain my tolerance and that he would make some changes next month but that I'm "probably not going to like it". Now I'm worried my pain is going to be unbearable or some thing. What do you think he is going to prescribe? What medications have you been given to help with tolerance? Any advice/experience will be greatly welcome. TIA!
Agmatine Sulfate is a non-psychoactive, neuroprotective NMDA-Antagonist which is derived from the amino acid Arginine. It is not readily found in stores like GNC, but it can be found off of amazon and many other sites. Usually, one month's worth of the supplement costs around $30. There is significant amounts of real, peer-reviewed literature supporting its ability to rapidly diminish and reverse opioid and amphetamine tolerance in even the most tolerant individuals. I started taking it right when I got on Suboxone (which I take for off-label allieviation of the negative symptoms of Schizoaffective Disorder, not addiction) because I heard how bad of a tolerance it can build. Here is the straight truth: I started Suboxone on 3 mg per day. Two years later, I was still on 3 mg per day and it felt just as effective as Day One. Now, my doctor recently decided to up it to 5 mg per day for the current month, but that is because I am in a dysphoric mixed-state right now and he thinks it will help me not sink into a manic state. So far, it has worked perfectly and I feel myself returning to stability even as we speak. So, trust me (and most people on this forum will vouch that I don't talk bull-shit), get some Agmatine. There are NO side effects at the doses needed for tolerance reduction.
Thanks for the advice. What is the recommended dosage? How do you take it? Any more info is appreciated.
Oh nah man nah! Don't take ETKs advice at all! I would never vouche that ETK of all ppl on this site know what they are talking about.........
