Cold Water Extraction Guide to Remove APAP from Hydrocodone, Oxycodone, and Codeine

To start, for the more naive here's a key:

1. APAP: commonly referred to as Tylenol, Acetaminophen, or Paracetamol for Europeans
   -Worth noting the number one cause of liver failure is through abuse of prescription opiates containing APA

2. Hydrocodone: the official common name for Vicodin or Lortabs, etc. (just look at your bottles to know what you have.
   -technically an opiate because it, and oxycodone are both made from Thebaine, an active
   alkaloid in the opium poppy (Papaver Somniferum)
   -metabolized partially in your body into it's more potent version hydromorphone (AKA Dilaudid)

3. Oxycodone: official name for Oxycontin, Percocet, Percodan, so on...
   -easily the most abused by serious opiate addicts, and therefore a person is more likely to jump from this
   and risk a fentanyl overdose if they don't test their product.
   - metabolized partially in your body into it's more potent version oxymorphone (AKA Opana)

4. Codeine: very hard to find without tylenol in it, but this technique im about to post will eliminate the APAP so you can
   consume a pain-killing dose without killing your liver.
   -Codeine in one of the major constituents of the Opium Poppy, after Morphine, but Codeine happens to be a
   pro-drug for morphine, meaning if you eat like 300g of codeine around 20-30mg of that will become
   morphine, which is why the subjective effects are so similar in highe doses (which a cold water extraction is
   extremely necessary for high volume codeine intake via pills with APAP in them.

Now that we have the background info. to get everyone up to speed, on with the technique:

so if you have to consume more than the recommended amount of any of the above tabs containing APAP do the following:

1. crush your pills to a fine powder (only crush the amount of pills that equates to the amount of opioid you intend on consuming (if you wanna take 20mg of oxycodone then crush two 10mg IR percocets for example.

2. using a freezer-safe container (I use larger pyrex measuring cups, but plastic works too) pour in your finely crushed powdered pills

3. then pour in enough water to completely saturate all the powder, doesn't really matter after that, just more liquid to consume afterwards

4. mix until it is homogenous

5. place in freezer and check on it every 10-20min or so, you want to get the temp of the solution to just before freezing

6. at this point you'll notice a white layer of powder has precipitated out of your solution and collected in a layer at the bottom of your container (this is the APAP, aka tylenol you're removing)

7. now, working quickly, filter the solution through a coffee filter, or a funnel plugged with a piece of organic cotton to remove the solid APAP from the liquid solution containing your opioids

8. now you have virtually no more APAP in your medication, so you can take larger doses as opposed to taking pills, and not damage your liver

(leading cause of liver failure in the USA is due to people abusing tylenol-containing prescription opioids)

this is all in the name of harm prevetion and not advocating abuse of drugs, hope it can help save some livers out there!

thanks for reading and stay safe!
