One of the most common methods of heroin use is via intravenous injection. When taken orally, heroin undergoes extensive first-pass metabolism via deacetylation, making it a prodrug for the systemic delivery of morphine.[1] When the drug is injected, however, it avoids this first-pass effect, very rapidly crossing the blood-brain barrier due to the presence of the acetyl groups, which render it much more lipid-soluble than morphine itself.[2] Once in the brain, it is deacetylated into 3- and 6-monoacetylmorphine and morphine, which bind to μ-opioid receptors resulting in intense euphoria with the feeling centered in the gut.
Frequent administration has a high potential for causing addiction and may quickly lead to tolerance. If a continual, sustained use of heroin for as little as three days is stopped abruptly, withdrawal symptoms can appear. This is much shorter than the withdrawal effects experienced from other common painkillers such as oxycodone and hydrocodone.[3][4]
Internationally, heroin is controlled under Schedules I and IV of the Single Convention on Narcotic Drugs.[5] It is illegal to manufacture, possess, or sell heroin in the United States and the UK. However, under the name diamorphine, heroin is a legal prescription drug in the United Kingdom. Popular street names for heroin include black tar, smack, junk, skag, horse, brain, chaw, chiva, and others. These are specific references to heroin and not used to describe any other drug. Dope could be used to refer to heroin, but may also indicate other drugs, from laudanum a century ago to nearly any contemporary recreational drug.Hell dog www.eschlerart.com

I tried to smile, but my face was too numb, stiff, and swollen.
They had to do a lot of work around a nerve, and there's very little feeling in the right side of my cheek/nose/lip. It's gradually coming back. They also stripped out the lining of the sinus cavity, which disturbed the nerve on top of the teeth.
Because of the irritated nerves, there's a lot of swelling and a toothache that stretches from my jaw to my eye socket. Tylenol / acetaminophen / paracetamol and even Percocet / oxycodone hardly put a dent in it. (I am not stoned in this picture. It's the swelling, I swear!) My right eye isn't focusing accurately.
Fortunately, Ibuprofin / Advil / Motrin does wonders, thanks to its anti-inflammatory properties. The only problem is, Ibuprofin thins the blood, so you shouldn't take it after surgery. It's even worse with caffeine, which opens the blood vessels. I had to tough it out until the bleeding was low enough. Also, if you are like me, you have to take Ibuprofin with food/milk or it will upset your stomach (and the antibiotics are already doing that).

Are Pain Killers Addicting?
Pain killers (opioids) are extremely addictive. They come in both natural and synthetic forms. The most common of these include those that are prescribed in opioids such as codeine, oxycodone, demerol, fentanyl, propoxyphene, methadone, and hydromorphone. Withdrawl...
Sneakers in a tree is SO "ghetto". We suburbanites like to advertise our wares with a little more class, a little more "panache". Depending on the style of shoe (and obviously the brand), that will tell you what you're buying. I'm assuming this gentleman might be a purveyor of Oxycodone, or possibly some other "white collar opiate".
DEA, Titusville Police, and Brevard County Sheriff Operation Oxymoron. This is a ISI Services Corp patch but someone tore off the sticker, you can see where it was as a little remains of the sticker. So it is legit but its just missing the sticker
This was Jordan's pride and joy. He was born October 25, 1986 and passed away July 4, 2007 as a result of someone giving him Oxycodone that didn't mix with his prescription medication. It is the greatest loss in the world to lose a child. I hope one life can be saved by me talking about my precious son. Please everyone stay away from this dangerous drug.
I thought I would do a selfie for my 365 today, so everyone can see I'm really getting better. I've had kind of a heavy day, but in a good way. I can type with my right hand a bit. Not for long, but a bit. Yay for capital letters!
I don't have to wear my sling most of the time - I was so scared about having to wear it for four weeks, but since my surgeon didn't have to stitch the tendons, just trim off the bone spur and cut apart some scar tissue, I can move my arm as much as I am able to. They really pushed me at physical therapy today so I'm in a lot of pain even with the oxycodone, but pleased at how much I was able to do. And I'm reeling a bit from the oxycodone, but at least I don't have to drive anywhere thanks to my stepfather who is taking me anywhere I need to go. And my stitches dissolved nicely, leaving three small (inch long) scars that are healing up well. So all in all I'm feeling pretty lucky today.
Even luckier as my brother is coming for a week's visit today and I went to the doctor for a mole check this afternoon & he said that the nasty mole on my back was icky but not cancerous. I'm having it removed anyway next month since it does look unhappy, but it's a real relief to know it's not malignant!

Author Sam Quinones, who wrote “Dreamland: The True Tale of America’s Opiate Epidemic,” told a Delaware audience Oct. 27 that an influx of prescribed opiate painkillers, Americans believing they were “entitled to a life without pain,” a flood of cheap heroin from Mexico and the breakdown of community all contributed to the nightmare of the addiction epidemic. Quinones was brought to Delaware by First Lady Carla Markell and atTAcK addiction, a grassroots group of parents and other individuals who have been impacted by the epidemic. In introducing Quinones, the First Lady said “Dreamland” was a “riveting read.”
Quinones points to 1996 as the year that the prescribing of oxycodone and hydrocodone “rise like a plane taking off.” But he said it was the introduction of OxyContin by Purdue Pharma in 1996 that has caused the most harm downstream. “We would not have a heroin problem today if not for Oxycontin. … Here is a story about a drug nightmare created by the private sector.”
Quinones said there is not one solution to the addiction epidemic, but a series of solutions that communities – increased treatment services, availability of naloxone, increased prevention efforts, regulation of prescriber habits, law enforcement interrupting the supply chain, rethinking jail, respecting Public Health folks – need to take. And one overriding factor, “The antidote to heroin is not naloxone, it is community. … We spent the last 35 years in America destroying community.”
In a panel discussion that followed his talk, DHSS Secretary Rita Landgraf ticked off increased prevention, treatment and recovery services supported by the Governor and the General Assembly, but “what we want to support is communities that support recovery. Recovery lasts a lifetime.”
Don Keister, who founded atTAcK addiction with his wife, Jeanne, after they lost their son Tyler to an accidental heroin overdose, said he sees that sense of community in the group’s annual 5K, which drew 2,000 people in March 2016. Next, he said the group would like to support a sober high school.
Attorney General Matt Denn said law enforcement needs to keep interrupting drug dealers and working further up the chain. “We have to deal with the supply side. It’s critical that we do.”
Dr. Daniel Headrick, founder of Tres Vistas Recovery, said people who in recovery from heroin addiction must begin with “a 90-day brain healing project.” He said the impact on the brain chemistry from opiates is “hard to unwind.”

Addiction
Substance abuse has revealed itself as an ongoing issue throughout the span of history. As opioid abuse has continuously developed as an American epidemic, new options for withdrawal treatment have earned a place in the conversation about health and wellness. Forward-thinking medications such as hemp, cannabis, and cannabidiol (CBD) have been introduced as healthy alternatives for those struggling with addiction. Abuse of prescription and non-prescription opioid medications has not only become a rising issue in our country, but also across the globe. Drugs like codeine, morphine, oxycodone, heroin, morphine, and others have littered both legitimate and illegitimate markets and have left users in almost impossible circumstances. Leaving behind nothing but trouble, the consequences of these issues can be drastic for individuals, and for society. While the immediate physical implications include short-term side effects and withdrawal symptoms, overall social deterioration extends the issue towards a path of irreversible decay. Given all this, it is no wonder that CBD is rising in popularity as a possible solution to this massive problem.
CBD. The Solution.
Fortunately, cannabidiol is one of the compounds in the cannabis plant that may be one the biggest forces to alleviate withdrawal. At its core, cannabidiol extract is a powerful solution due to the fact that it provides the non-psychoactive, medicinal benefits of plants like hemp and cannabis. CBD is the second most prevalent compound in cannabis, after THC. Isolating CBD allows you to experience the benefits that it may possess regarding pain management, sleep normalization, and overall wellness. These aspects of CBD are just small pieces as to how it may be able to benefit those struggling with prescription, or non-prescription, drug use. While current research is limited and will require further work in order to concretely define these benefits, some university-based research programs have already began to dive into the effects that CBD may have on opioid users. Preclinical trials have shown that CBD may have therapeutic properties for those using opioids, cocaine, cannabis, and tobacco. A 2013 study, published in an addiction-based journal, revealed a reduction in cigarette consumption for tobacco users. These types finding are now being applied to other drugs, like opioids as well.
The anti-anxiety effects of CBD may also prove beneficial to those experiencing withdrawal symptoms. Reducing anxiety caused by withdrawal is a frontline benefit that CBD may bring to the table, as anxiety is a major contributor to the basis of these symptoms. Additionally, cravings and relapses may be reduced by the wellness attributes of cannabidiol.
Working through a serious addiction issue can take a significant amount of time and effort, and from a wide range of parties involved. The ability to use CBD as a way to alleviate the process of quitting, and alleviating withdrawal symptoms, will hopefully prove itself consistent across the board. For now, until research solidifies the position, we must make use of individual use cases that support its use in this sense. These are not difficult to find.
Moving Forward
If opioid use continually increases, CBD may prove itself as a staple component to the path towards sobriety. Further research is now underway and preclinical data has shown a trend that is in favor of CBD. Cannabidiol users typically look to reduce their stress, and increase the wellbeing of their day-to-day life. With this in mind, it remains a logical next step in order to aid the stressful process of beating an addiction. Time will certainly tell whether or not CBD is a stable relapse-prevention tool, but we feel confident in the supportive material that already exists. Early adopters may be ahead of the curve, though as always, it is important to consult a trained professional about any major shifts in your medications or diet. If you have any questions, don’t ever feel afraid to reach out. Proper CBD companies will always be able to explain what they tout. Remember, knowledge isn’t always power, but it is always empowering.

Many women need to take medicines while they are pregnant. But not all medicines are safe during pregnancy. Many medicines carry risks for you, your baby, or both. Opioids, especially when misused, can cause problems for you and your baby while you are pregnant.
What are opioids?
Opioids, sometimes called narcotics, are a type of drug. They include strong prescription pain relievers, such as oxycodone, hydrocodone, fentanyl, and tramadol. The illegal drug heroin is also an opioid.
A health care provider may give you a prescription opioid to reduce pain after you have had a major injury or surgery. You may get them if you have severe pain from health conditions like cancer. Some health care providers prescribe them for chronic pain.
Prescription opioids used for pain relief are generally safe when taken for a short time and as prescribed by your health care provider. However, opioid dependence, addiction, and overdose are still potential risks. These risks increase when these medicines are misused. Misuse means you are not taking the medicines according to your provider's instructions, you are using them to get high, or you are taking someone else's opioids.
What are the risks of taking opioids during pregnancy?
Taking opioids during pregnancy can cause problems for you and your baby. The possible risks include
Neonatal abstinence syndrome (NAS) - withdrawal symptoms (irritability, seizures, vomiting, diarrhea, fever, and poor feeding) in newborns
Neural tube defects - birth defects of the brain, spine, or spinal cord
Congenital heart defects - problems with the structure of the baby's heart
Gastroschisis - a birth defect of the baby's abdomen, where the intestines stick outside of the body through a hole beside the belly button
Loss of the baby, either miscarriage (before 20 weeks of pregnancy) or stillbirth (after 20 or more weeks)
Preterm delivery - a birth before 37 weeks
Stunted growth, leading to low birthweight
Some women need to take opioid pain medicine while they are pregnant. If your health care provider suggests that you take opioids during pregnancy, you should first discuss the risks and benefits. Then if you both decide that you need to take the opioids, you should work together to try to minimize the risks. Some of the ways to do this include
Taking them for the shortest time possible
Taking the lowest dose that will help you
Carefully following your provider's instructions for taking the medicines
Contacting your provider if you have side effects
Going to all your follow-up appointments
If I am already taking opioids and I become pregnant, what should I do?
If you have been taking opioids and you become pregnant, contact your health care provider. You should not stop taking the opioids on your own. If you suddenly stop taking opioids, it could cause severe health problems for you or your baby. In some cases, stopping suddenly during pregnancy may be more harmful than taking the medicines.
Can I breastfeed while taking opioids?
Many women who regularly take opioid medicines can breastfeed. It depends on which medicine you are taking. Check with your health care provider before breastfeeding.
There are some women who should not breastfeed, such as those who have HIV or take illegal drugs.
What are the treatments for opioid use disorders in pregnancy?
If you are pregnant and have an opioid use disorder, do not stop taking opioids suddenly. Instead, see your health care provider so you can get help. The treatment for opioid use disorder is medication-assisted therapy (MAT). MAT includes medicine and counseling:
Medicine can reduce your cravings and withdrawal symptoms. For pregnant women, health care providers use either buprenorphine or methadone.
Counseling, including behavioral therapies, which can help you
Change your attitudes and behaviors related to drug use
Build healthy life skills
Continue taking your medicine and getting prenatal care

www.msn.com/en-us/health/medical/covid-reinfection-rate-w...
COVID reinfection rate with treatment Biden is taking is more than 40% - and not 2% as marketed
Joe Biden has been re-infected with COVID after taking an anti-viral drug that leaves patients running a 40 per cent risk of flare-up of the virus shortly afterwards.
Taking Paxlovid leaves COVID sufferers in danger of testing positive for the virus again very quickly after clearing their initial infection.
When Paxlovid came to market in December 2021, studies from Pfizer indicated that only 1-2 percent of patients who took the drug tested positive for Covid again shortly after finishing their dosage.
But other experts say the rapid reinfection rate is closer to 40 per cent, and that Paxlovid can cause this issue by suppressing patients' immune systems too early, meaning their own bodies are unable to get a handle on COVID.
Dr. Jonathan Reiner, a prominent cardiologist and professor of medicine and surgery at George Washington University Hospital tweeted: 'I think this was predictable.'
He continued: 'The prior data suggesting 'rebound' Paxlovid positivity in the low single digits is outdates and with BA.5 is likely 20-40% or even higher.'
In a memo released by the White House, Dr. Kevin O'Connor said that the president will continue to isolate, just like he did when he first tested positive on July 21.
Dr. O'Connor also said that the president would not be prescribed Paxlovid again. The president's doctor earlier noted that it was likely that the president was infected with the BA.5 variant.
In June, a Mayo Clinic study showed that five percent of adults who had taken the drug tested positive again for Covid within 30 days, according to the New York Times.
The majority of those who experienced rebound symptoms occur within two to eight days.
Some experts have said that the current treatment cycle of taking three pills twice a day for five days is too short a time period to clear Covid from the patient's body.
The conclusion of the Mayo Clinic study was that extending the time period of the course of Paxlovid was unnecessary.
The authors of the study conceded in their findings that immunocompromised people were unrepresented in the study.
Also in June, the president's chief medical advisor, Dr. Anthony Fauci, experienced rebound Covid-19. In his case, he did take a second round of Paxlovid.
Dr. Ashish K. Jha, the White House’s Covid-19 response coordinator, has denied that the Paxlovid rebound numbers are nearly 50 percent.
The doctor maintained that the actual percentage of reinfections is 'in the single digits.'
Dr. Jha said: 'When people have rebound, they don’t end up in the hospital. They don’t end up particularly sick.'
He added: 'Paxlovid is working really well at preventing serious illness, rebound or no rebound, and that’s why he was offered it. And that’s why the president took it.'
Just this week, Pfizer, the pharmaceutical giant that makes Paxlovid, posted huge second-quarter sales growth with revenues around $27.7 billion.
That's up from $18 billion that was reported in the second quarter of 2021.
The global sales of Paxlovid alone were $8.1 billion.
Around 40,000 Paxlovid prescriptions are being handed out on a daily basis, similar to the amount of oxycodone prescriptions that are filled every day.
Speaking to the Atlantic, Bob Wachter, the chair of medicine at the University of California San Francisco, said that deciding whether or not give Paxlovid to certain patients is a 'massively complicated three-dimensional chess game.'
Wachter also said: 'I can barely decide whether want it, and I do this for a living.'
While Dr. David Boulware of the University of Minnesota told the magazine that he wants Pfizer to release more in depth study data.
He said that the data released so far by Pfizer 'suggest that there’s really minimal to no benefit, most likely, for the vast majority of people.'
The president first tested positive on July 21 and then tested negative on July 26.
Biden continued to test negative on the following Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. He made his first public address on Wednesday following his initial diagnosis the previous week.
www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/biden-under-strict-isolat...
Biden under ‘strict isolation measures’ as he continues to test positive for Covid
Joe Biden continued to test positive for coronavirus on Sunday and will “continue his strict isolation measures” his physician said.
The US president feels well, the White House said. Biden tweeted about the economy and about regretting being unable to meet in person to commiserate with military veterans and their families visiting Capitol Hill in support of a long-awaited bipartisan bill that would expand healthcare access for those exposed to toxic burn pits.
Some Republican senators had reversed their support for the legislation at the last minute.
Biden tweeted a video of himself sitting outside at the White House on a green sofa, wearing an open-necked blue shirt and a baseball cap with the presidential seal as he video-chatted with the families gathered on the steps leading up to the US Congress and had pizza sent to them.
The president on Saturday tested positive for Covid-19 only days after testing negative and having apparently largely shrugged off an infection with the virus.
His physician, Kevin O’Connor, said on Sunday that Biden is being monitored daily and his positive test that morning was unsurprising.
The president had originally contracted Covid and tested positive on July 21, then apparently recovered.
But Biden had been taking the anti-viral medication Paxlovid, which has reported numerous cases of effectively reducing the viral load of Covid only for it to return once the medication is stopped.
In accordance with Centers for Disease Control and Prevention guidelines, on Saturday Biden, 79, had re-entered isolation for at least five days. The agency says most “rebound” cases remain mild and that severe disease during that period has not been reported.
Paxlovid has been proven to significantly reduce severe disease and death among those most vulnerable to severe Covid.
Biden is fully vaccinated, after getting two doses of the Pfizer coronavirus vaccine shortly before taking office, a first booster shot in September and an additional dose 30 March.
The weekend positive tests jeopardize a Tuesday trip Biden had planned to Michigan, which is holding its fiercely-contested primary elections that day.
