Is there any health risks caused by oxycotton aside from addiction and overdose? Like damage to the heart, liver, etc?
No, aside from the aforementioned risks of addiction and overdose, Oxycontin (pure oxycodone) is harmless to the organs of the body. When mixed with other drugs such as APAP, it can be damaging to the liver.
Ok, thank you, I asked because I heard that heroin can cause: Infection of the heart lining and valves. Liver disease. Kidney disease. Pulmonary complications And irregular slow heart rate. So I was curious if Oxys could cause this.
There's some speculation as to whether opiates and cocaine can trigger autoimmune disease in some people, but it's not 100% proven. I imagine a high enough dose of ANYTHING could damage the body in some way. Opiates mostly affect the intestines and CNS, but as far as causing acute organ failure, cancer or other serious diseases, the answer is probably no.
Is that from the heroin just by itself. Or does it relate to using needles and/or the cutting agents?
http://alcoholism.about.com/od/heroin/a/effects.htm <- That is my source... And, Codone.. I'm glad you mentioned cocaine, my actual issue is I suffered palpitation, chest pains and a minor change in heart rhythm from a cocaine habit and was a little scared oxys could damage my heart more, but from the answers I got I guess I'm safe.
stimulants are inherently dangerous for you body, opiates are considered some of the safest hard drugs available.
Your source is an alcoholism website. You mention your heart trouble due to a previous Coke habit. Oxy's are the most addictive pill in the world. All of that makes me think you'd be better off not doing Oxy. IMHO, of course.
if your swallowing it i can't think of any you didnt list above...if your gonna insulfate it their is a risk of damage to your nasal area and if ur gonna iv it i think it could probably be bad for your veins, and heart if prepared incorectly...
It definitely depends on whether you smoke it or take it in pill form, also dissolving the barrier will make it have a different effect on your body
