A friend of mine is addicted to oxycotin. It seems everytime I turn around, she is taking anouther pill. On top of that, she takes sleeping pills to sleep. Don’t know why. How much can a person take before there is a problem. What are the syptoms?

    Different people can handle different amounts. After taking an addictive substance, people develop tolerance, meaning they need more of the substance to get and effect. I know of people who could take literally handfuls of oxycontin and be happy. I’m not saying it’s safe, but it didn’t kill them.

    If she takes more than she is prescribed, there is a problem. Look for signs like her nodding off when she sits still. Does she go to different doctors and pharmacies for her pills? Does she seem agitated or out of it? Is she defensive if asked about it? Are there lots of empty pill bottles around? Is she moody?

    If you think there’s a problem, tell her you’re concerned. If you confront her, and you’re convinced there is a problem, ask her to see a doctor for help. If she refuses, and there’s still a problem, depending on her age, go to her family. If she’s over 18, and/or her family won’t help, offer your help, but remember, you can’t make her get better until she realizes there’s a problem and wants to get better.

    Depends on the person, weight and/or drug tolerance.
