I tried using the cimetidine twice and I thought it actually shortened and kinda dulled my oxy buzz. Really weird. I so far have never had any luck with potentiation. Now Valium and Methadone are lovely together but I think it's more of a synergistic effect than anything. I know benzo's can potentiate but what I mean is the feeling I get isn't like a better Methadone buzz, it's like it's own unique feeling. I'm interested about trying some DXM to lower or prevent opiate tolerance. I'm gonna try 30-50 mg of it and do maybe half my normal Oxy dose and see if it works.
I tried cimetidine with oxycodone and was throwing up and felt like total death for like 6-8 hrs. There was no increase in painkilling or euphoria - quite contrary - felt like an overdose. So, everyone responds differently. Did anyone else respond this way to cimetidine + opioid?
I know that Cimetadine potentiates many Opiates, but also does the opposite for others.
According to Opiates.org:
If one was to drink a poppy seed wash, would Cimetadine potentiate it? I know that Cimetadine decreases absorption of Codeine and increases absorption of Morphine. And there are many differing opinions on which is the most prominent in poppy seeds.Quote:
Quinine and quinidine accentuate the buzz of opiates but only directly help with codeine metabolism by boosting the amount changed into morphine. Tagamet and grapefruit juice will weaken codeine substantially. The prescription antihistamine promethazine (Phenergan) helps out codeine even more, and is found with codeine in the Schedule V cough syrup Phenergan VC With Codeine. Quinine will tend to have its effect without impairing hydrocodone but does seem to burn off the buzz more quickly and may flatten the dose-to-response curve.
Well poppy seed wash is mainly morphine, and some codeine, these are the most active opiods in the wash. I guess it would be best to google what its potentiating ability is for these two compounds, I'd tell you but I do not know.
I know promethazine (phenergan) will potentiate all of these and reduce the nausea, its OTC in Australia so its probably similar in other countries.
Alcohol potentiates codeine a lot. If one didn't know that yet (by inducing CYP2D6 enzyme)

- irvingia gabonensis stem bark
- buddliea cordata
- sophora subprostata
- nigella sativa seed oil
- picralima nitida
- spinach rubisco- a delta agonist
these herbs all have some sort of opioid related activity. some of them have been researched and the active opioid compounds identified, other have just been tested as a whole extract against naloxone.....
Thymoquinone, the active in nigella sativa makes for a pretty decent painkiller also.
umm ok i know none of theseQuote:

How much opiates related activity do these have
They will increase nausea for sure, due to opioids raising dopamine levels and nicotine also raising dopamine levels; dopamine agonism tends to cause vomiting.Quote:

As a smoker, I find cigarettes really enjoyable on codeine. I'm not sure how a non-smoker would fare though. :\
No it was not a joke try it and see what happensQuote:

Smoke a newport trust me. The first time I did a line of dope I realy didnt feel anything till my friend told me to smoke a cigarette then I was like 8o. The only time I smoke is when Im donig doing dope. It mgiht not work for everybody but it works for me
Smoking makes me feel sick and dizzy so I might give it a miss. Don't really want to end up a smoker either.
Your smoking to much. Thats like saying I have no tolerance but I want to shoot a $20 of raw dope without throwing up. Take a few puffs from a cigarette when you are starting to feel your buzz I can gurantee you it will boost the effectsQuote:

Akuammine, an indole alkaloid, is the most abundant active alkaloid found in the seeds from the tree Picralima nitida, commonly known as Akuamma.
The dried seeds from this plant are used in traditional medicine throughout West Africa, particularly in Ghana as well as in the Ivory Coast and Nigeria. The seeds are crushed or powdered and taken orally, and are mainly used for the treatment of malaria[1] and diarrhoea, and as a painkiller. An enterprising Ghanaian hospital started manufacturing standardised 250mg capsules of the powdered P. nitida seed, and sold them around the country where they became widely accepted as a safe and effective pain relief product. This then led researchers to try and discover the active component of the seeds.
P. nitida seeds contain a mixture of alkaloids producing antipyretic and antiinflammatory effects along with analgesia.[2][3] Several of these were shown to bind to opioid receptors in vitro, and two compounds, akuammidine and ψ-akuammigine, were found to be potent μ-opioid agonists, although not particularly selective. Surprisingly the main alkaloid from the seeds, akuammine, was found to be an opioid antagonist when tested in vitro and canceled out the effects of the active agonist components.[4]
Given the confirmed activity of the whole seed extract in humans, this makes it likely that akuammine is in fact being metabolised once inside the body to form an active metabolite, in a similar way to how the closely related compound mitragynine is metabolised to the more active 7-hydroxymitragynine.
Akuammine is the main alkaloid found in the seeds, comprising 0.56% of the dried powder, indicating that the 250 mg "Picap Capsules" sold commercially should contain approximately 1.4 mg of akuammine, plus 0.085 mg akuammidine and 0.015 mg ψ-akuammigine. Akuammine is structurally related to both yohimbine and mitragynine, both of which are alkaloid plant products with uses in medicine.[*]

Pericine is one of a number of indole alkaloids found in the tree Picralima nitida, commonly known as Akuamma. The dried seeds from this plant are used in traditional medicine throughout West Africa, particularly in Ghana as well as in the Ivory Coast and Nigeria. As with some other alkaloids from this plant such as akuammine, pericine has been shown to bind to mu opioid receptors, and has an IC50 of 0.6μmol, around 6x more potent than codeine when tested in the same assay.
- Irvingia gabonensis stem bark-
[*]Quote:
Irvingia gabonensis is used medicinally in most parts of tropical Africa for the treatment of a number of ailments. In West Africa the Mende tribe of Sierra Leone uses the stem bark to relieve pain. In order to establish a pharmacological rationale for the traditional use of this plant as a remedy for pain, the water and ethanol extracts of the powdered stem bark were screened for analgesic activity and compared with standard analgesic drugs. The water extract and morphine protected the mice from heat-induced pain. In contrast, the ethanol extract and metamizole sodium showed very low level of analgesic activity in this test. However, using tail pressure as a source of pain, the water and ethanol extracts, metamizole sodium and morphine offered protection to the mice against pain stimuli. Morphine and the water extract were more potent as analgesic agents in heat than non-heat pain test. The analgesic effects of the water extract and morphine were blocked by a non-selective opioid receptor antagonist, naloxone in both tests, whereas the analgesic effects of the ethanol extract and metamizole sodium were not antagonized by the same dose of the opioid antagonist. The data presented in this study suggest that the active principle(s) in the water extract has analgesic profile similar to that of the narcotic analgesic and the ethanol extract might contain compound(s) that behave like non-narcotic analgesic agent. These findings provide for the first time the pharmacological basis for the folkloric use of Irvingia gabonensis in the relief of pain.
- Buddliea cordata-
[*]Quote:
Analgesic and antipyretic activities of an aqueous extract and of the flavone linarin of Buddleia cordata.
The dried aqueous extract of leaves of Buddleia cordata (loganiaceae) and its main flavonoid glycoside, linarin, have been evaluated for analgesic and antipyretic effects in mice and rats, respectively. Both the extract and linarin exerted significant and dose-dependent analgesic and antipyretic activities, the first being obtained against a chemical stimulus (writhing a test in mice) and the second being obtained by a pyretogenic stimulus (yeast-induced hyperthermia test). Furthermore, the response of the animals in the hot plate test was modified by linarin and an aqueous extract. These activities were similar to that showed by morphine sulfate (MS) and they were inhibited by naxolone pretreatment, a specific morphinic antagonist compound. These findings lead to the conclusion that the aqueous extract and linarin exert central analgesic properties. On the other hand, linarin was shown to be responsible for the antipyretic activity of this species.

The antinociceptive potency of matridin-15-one ((+)-matrine) was examined using the acetic acid-induced abdominal contraction test and the tail-flick test in mice. (+)-Matrine, at doses of 1 to 10 mg/kg, s.c., produced a marked and dose-dependent inhibition of the number of acetic acid-induced abdominal contractions in mice. The antinociceptive effect of (+)-matrine in the acetic acid-induced abdominal contraction test in mice was identical to that of pentazocine. Indeed, there was no significant difference in the ED50 (mg/kg with 95% confidence limits) values for the inhibition of acetic acid-induced abdominal contractions between (+)-matrine (4.7 (4.1-5.3)) and pentazocine (3.3 (2.2-5.0)). Furthermore, in the tail-flick assay, (+)-matrine at doses of 10 and 30 mg/kg, s.c., again produced a dose-dependent antinociceptive effect. When nor-binaltorphimine (20 mg/kg, s.c.), a selective kappa-opioid receptor antagonist, was administered 3 h before treatment with (+)-matrine, the antinociceptive effect of (+)-matrine was markedly antagonized. Furthermore, the antinociceptive effect of (+)-matrine was partially antagonized by pretreatment with beta-funaltrexamine, a selective mu-opioid receptor antagonist. Naltrindole, a selective delta-opioid receptor antagonist, had no effect on the antinociceptive effect of (+)-matrine. In conclusion, (+)-matrine produced an antinociceptive effect mainly through the activation of kappa-opioid receptors and partially through mu-opioid receptors.
- Nigella sativa seed oil-

Antinociceptive effects of Nigella sativa oil and its major component, thymoquinone, in mice
Abstract
The antinociceptive effects of Nigella sativa oil and its major component, thymoquinone, were examined in mice. The p.o. administration of N. sativa oil (50–400 mg/kg) dose-dependently suppressed the nociceptive response in the hot-plate test, tail-pinch test, acetic acid-induced writhing test and in the early phase of the formalin test. The systemic administration (2.5–10 mg/kg, p.o. and 1–6 mg/kg, i.p.) and the i.c.v. injection (1–4 μg/mouse) of thymoquinone attenuated the nociceptive response in not only the early phase but also the late phase of the formalin test. Naloxone injected s.c. (1 mg/kg) significantly blocked N. sativa oil- and thymoquinone-induced antinociception in the early phase of the formalin test. Moreover, the i.c.v. injection of naloxone (10 μg/mouse), the μ1-opioid receptor antagonist, naloxonazine (1–5 μg/mouse), or the κ-opioid receptor antagonist, nor-binaltorphimine (1–5 μg/mouse), significantly reversed thymoquinone-induced antinociception in the early phase but not the late phase of the formalin test, whereas the δ-opioid receptor antagonist, naltrindole (1–5 ng/mouse, i.c.v.), had no effect on either phase. The antinociceptive effect of morphine was significantly reduced in thymoquinone- and N. sativa oil-tolerant mice, but not vice versa. These results suggest that N. sativa oil and thymoquinone produce antinociceptive effects through indirect activation of the supraspinal μ1- and κ-opioid receptor subtypes.

Isolation of opioid-active compounds from Tabernaemontana pachysiphon leaves
Résumé / Abstract
A procedure for prefractionation of crude plant extracts by centrifugal partition chromatography (CPC) has been developed to enable rapid identification of known-positive compounds or false-positive compounds and to increase the chance of identifying minor unknown-active compounds. The study explored the use of CPC as a tool in the prefractionation step before investigation of bioactivity. Fractions obtained by CPC from an ethanolic extract of Tabernaemontana pachysiphon Stapf (Apocynaceae) were screened by means of an opiate-receptor-binding assay and an adenosine A1-receptor-binding assay. Fractions containing fatty acids, which had false-positive effects on the assay, were identified, as were unknown-positive fractions from which two opioid-active compounds, tubotaiwine and apparicine, were subsequently isolated. The affinities (Ki) of tubotaiwine and apparicine at the opiate receptor were 1.65±0.81 and 2.65± 1.56 μmol, respectively. Both alkaloids had analgesic activity in the abdominal constriction test in mice. CPC prefractionation led to the rapid isolation of two opioid-active compounds, tubotaiwine and apparicine, from the unknown-positive fraction; false-positive fractions were rapidly identified. Both tubotaiwine and apparicine had affinity for adenosine receptors in the micromolar range and also had in-vivo analgesic activity in mice.
Hope that answers your question.
EDIT: Spinach Rubisco is another one.[*]Quote:
Rubiscolin-6, a δ opioid peptide derived from spinach Rubisco, has anxiolytic effect via activating σ1 and dopamine D1 receptors
Abstract
Rubiscolin-6 (Tyr-Pro-Leu-Asp-Leu-Phe) is a δ opioid peptide derived from the large subunit of spinach d-ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (Rubisco). We previously reported that rubiscolin-6 had an analgesic effect and stimulated memory consolidation. Here we show that intraperitoneally (i.p.) or orally administered rubiscolin-6 has an anxiolytic effect at a dose of 10 mg/kg or 100 mg/kg, respectively, in the elevated plus-maze test in mice. The anxiolytic effects of rubscolin-6 after i.p. (10 mg/kg) and oral (100 mg/kg) administration were blocked by a δ opioid receptor antagonist, naltrindole (1 mg/kg, s.c.), suggesting that the anxiolytic activity of rubiscolin-6 is mediated by δ opioid receptor. The anxiolytic effect of rubiscolin-6 (10 mg/kg, i.p.) was also blocked by a dopamine D1 antagonist, SCH23390 (30 μg/kg, i.p.), but not by a dopamine D2 antagonist, raclopride (15 μg/kg, i.p.). The anxiolytic effect of rubiscolin-6 (10 mg/kg, i.p.) was blocked by σ1 receptor antagonist, BMY14802 (0.5 mg/kg, i.p.) or BD1047 (10 mg/kg, i.p.). Taken together, the anxiolytic effect of rubiscolin-6 is mediated by σ1 and dopamine D1 receptors downstream of δ opioid receptor.
ah cats claw does that work with codeine or any other opiates and to what extent? whats everyones experiences and thoughts with using it? eg. phenergan and grapefruit juice convert ~10% more morphine.
So whats everyones fav combo.
i think catapres, soma, phenergan, and a few different opiates really my fav.
Not going to put dose's and some of my combos cause i think alot of people might try that and well OD. But still i would like to know everyones fav combos to potentate there opiate be it heroin or codeine
yea a little clonidine mixed into a shot of dope is pretty nice. I dont know too many other ppl that have tried it, least in real life. There are probably some ppl on here who dig it tho.
I think once you start shooting dope its pretty pointless to try and potentiate it. If you want to get higher you just do another shot. This is my opinion tho and im not advocating shooting dope or anything, but it just seems like a waste any other way. especailly when its good dope.
^^^the best potentiater of opiates is, more opiates....lol... i love it!
Have any of you tried DLPA?
I have been using it on and off (3-6 times weekly) and I do notice some opiate potentiation. I learned about the combo through reading some research papers about DLPA.
From:
http://www.sciencedirect.com/science...0543efc5b015cb
Regardless, DLPA is a pretty good supplement. I prefer it over l-tyrosine or similar things . It's the best IMO for amphetamine recovery, I notice my recovery times are DRASTICALLY reduced since i've been taking it, but i've also been doing and craving less amphetamines.Quote:
DL-phenylalanine markedly potentiates opiate analgesia – an example of nutrient/pharmaceutical up-regulation of the endogenous analgesia system
A. L. Russella and M. F. McCartyb
a Brampton Pain Clinic, Bramalea, Ontario, Canada b Pantox Laboratories, San Diego, CA, USA
Abstract
In the author’s clinical experience, concurrent treatment with DL-phenylalanine (DLPA) often appears to potentiate pain relief and also ease depression in patients receiving opiates for chronic non-malignant pain. An analysis of this phenomenon suggests that it may be mediated, at least in part, by up-regulation of the ‘endogenous analgesia system’ (EAS), a neural pathway that projects caudally from medullary nuclei to the dorsal horn of the spinal column; when stimulated by chronic pain or therapeutic measures such as opiates or acupuncture, the EAS suppresses activation of second-order pain-receptive neurons in the dorsal horn, and thereby alleviates pain. Since serotonin and enkephalins are key neurotransmitters in the EAS, it is reasonable to predict that measures which promote serotonin activity (such as 5-hydroxytryptophan and serotonin-reuptake inhibitors) as well as enkephalin activity (such as D-phenylalanine, an enkephalinase inhibitor) should potentiate EAS-mediated analgesia – a view consistent with much previous medical research. Comprehensive support of the EAS with well-tolerated nutrients and pharmaceuticals may amplify the analgesic efficacy of chronic opiate therapy, while enabling dosage reductions that minimize opiate side-effects. Analogously, this approach may complement the efficacy of acupuncture and other analgesic measures that activate the EA
Benadryl works well. I remember being in florida with no drugs except one 60 mg morphine pill and some benadryl. Made a needle-less syringe with a turkey baster and plugged it. I nodded out REAL hard. It just kinda puts your head into the "nodspace" a lot easier I think...
:)
Tried this once and was shocked at the result. 15 mg of morphine (swallowed half a pill) and smoked a pinch of kanna. The result was euphoric, and I've never been a big fan of opiates. I've done bigger doses--OC, dilauded, Vics, but never had an opiate response like this. The only caution with Kanna is not to take it with Prozac-type (MOAI?) medications.
interesting not sure how that l-trosine and LDPA would do anything
ah benadry thats just dimenhydrinate or alike?
Prozac isn't an MAOI, it's an SSRI but so is Kanna so yeah they should not be combined. I wouldn't take it with any MAOI's either.Quote:

That is why those pills crept up on me and had me hooked in just a few months. I think they changed the formula in 1987, and ever since then, no one asked for them anymore. They are now being markerted as Panlor DC, but still no promethazine. If I am not mistaken it is no longer being made in the US. However with the rumor that hydrocodone may be rescheduled to a class 2 narcotic, this country will see an inflex of the new and "Improved" dihydrcodeine.

^ Promethazine is very well known here in OD and across BL I believe you'll find. I've only recentley started using it with codeine, and so far I love it.
So many have been mentioned that I am lost.
I am currently taking 300mg's of morphine per day. I feel no buzz or warmth or anything when I take my 50-100mg doses at once. All it does is help a bit with my pain, but I want much more.
So, for morphine specifically, what are the best, absolutely safe, non-prescription (in the US) potentiators I should take, and how much of them should I take, and when?
Please advise.
Thank you very much.
