completly agreed, cept' for"oxy is not unique, there are many other Opiods with similar effects"
I bow to your no doubt superior knowledge here,
but is Oxy so favoured because it is so *very* bioavailable orally? and nasally?- enhancing abuse potential?- as compared to say Morphine?,
and because Oxy users report it being such a stimulating Opiod-relative to the others?
