take a bottle of aspirin and youll find out...


but seriously, what your asking about so non chalantly is no joke. Not only kids but adults die from drug overdose all the time. ive heard of at least a hand ful of people who have died from oxycontin overdose, and mixing alcohol with vicodin or percoset. this is what i can tell you -

obviously your only supposed to take one or two extra strength vicodin at a time, as prescribed if you have pretty bad pain. abusijng the drug would be taking more than the prescribed amount, in other words overdosing. doing this with hydrocodone or oxycodone causes euphoria, feelings of relaxation, happiness, etc etc... and then addiction

soon people get to the point where it takes mroe than 3 vicodin to get high... and read the forums, youll find out - ive taken 18 extra strenghts in one day. i knew i could die from it, but i did it anyway, cuz i wanted to get high. so i hope this is for a project, cuz if ur just curious, u better forget it.... prescription drugs are nno joke.

Kate, I'm curious to know what kind of research your doing? Are you planning on trying to see how many you can take without dying? No one really knows. One could kill you. It depends on your system!!
