since oxycontin is in the news and the base is oxycodone similar in nature to what I am taking for my back (among other things). Hydrocodone at 7.5 mg is equivelent to 60 mg of oral morphine. Since I dont know the ratio between oral morphine and intravenous (old hospital stay) I can comment on the relationship between codedine and hydracodone. If you have a predisposed tolerance to opiates 1 10mg= three codeine with tylonal (tylonal 3) or one dialudid. This might help if you are in pain to guage the pain against the effectiveness of the drug. Note this stuff is highly addictive do not use for more that 14 days or less consecutively. I am hoping to wean off with at leat a 3 day supply for "later" :)
thanx,
