Default Cant get a straight answer to this...please?

I was taking hydrocodone 10/325....max dose 3x's daily. I had surgery recently. Now, they got me on Oxycodone hcl 5 mg's 6 x's daily

What one is stronger? I used to take 3 ,10/325 hydo's to get a buzz.....how many oxy's (5 mg;s) do I have to take to get a better buzz...and pain relief?

Also got 20 mg's of Oxycontin, dont take the time released stuff though.
Thanks

We don't advise on how much it takes to get a "buzz" here. There are forums for people wanting to abuse their meds all over the net. This isn't one of those sites. You should take your meds as prescribed. God bless.

How was Robert's reply "out of context"? He answered the question you asked within the context you provided. You're being rude.

Your doctor can tell you about the relative strengths of the medications he has prescribed along with telling you the appropriate dose for pain relief. Why don't you ask him?

It was takin out of context because I DID ask "which is stronger".......agreed, i did mention the buzz factor, and I should not have however, it was a legimaye question, regardless of what you might construe it as. Thats not being rude Sir, it;s asking a simple question and expecting a straight answer..........

OK, it's perfectly obvious that I was saying your "thanks for nothing" remark was rude. It was. How on earth could I have construed your original question as rude? Get real with yourself, please.

For your information, "Maisie" is a woman's name.

And I still think you should ask your doctor if you want information about pain relief, since you got the pills from the doctor.
