Posted on Sat, 13 Dec 2014

Question: Is meth, a small amt of ingested thc, and a small amt of alcohol safe? All in limited moderation.

Brief Answer:
Can you specify the dosage

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for using healthcaremagic.

I read your query and understand your concerns about combination of various psychotropic substances.

First of all I request you to provide dosage of all three molecues at a time or in typical 24 hour duration. Without that it is almsot impossible to predict response as word "small" is very subjective one. What you call small may be large for another individual unless other wise measured.

Having said this any combination of meth with alcohol can cause serious reaction in form of Paranoia, excitement, hallucinations and things get more complicated if you add THC to this combination. I am strongly against combining all these molecules as there is definite risk of injury to your health permanently or even death.

Hope I am able to answer your concerns.
If you have any further query, I would be glad to help you.
If not, you may close the discussion and if possible you may rate the answer for me, so that I get a good feedback.

Now you scared me. I have taken four 20-30 tokes on pipe inc inhale and exhale of meth. About 14oz of 12% alcohol can fruit cooler, and a half tsp hash butter for w a min amt of hash. Meth is not very strong compared to meth inhave had in past. I was ar foc today and all my vitals are xcellent. There forvwhat appears to be slightly swoolen lymph node. I am not a regular drug user. I had a lot happen in my life and wanted escape. I have used fairly regular the last 30 days but cut back in last two weeks. Used two days ago and 8 tokes like i described no alcohol and stronger meth. I know this sounds bad but i am just getting thru turkey day alone and have a meeting w a counselor to get life back. I golfed 18 today and have not drank for almost 30 days. I am a 50ym and christian that strayed off path. Church rejection part of it

Brief Answer:
Lets try not to get scared, seems like you are doing well right now...

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for reverting back to me.
I apologize for scaring you, but as a doctor I can speak only truth.

I can sense that you wrote your reply in great detail, that would be impossible for a person who had had a severe reaction due to the combination of drugs.

I am happy to know that your vitals are excellent but still be in familiar surroundings where help is easily available.

At this stage I request two important things
1. Stop using another drink/toke of anything
2. Call some family member so he stays around you
3. If you are not able to decide anything call emergency.
4. Use emergency services in future rather than relying on online help after you took some combination of psychoactive substances.

I hope this makes the things clear.
Thanks and regards

I had two more tokes and a very small sip of drink. It has been about two hours since last toke. I get warm and then cool, not drastic, i think it is thc kicking in. When i ingest it, it can take up to seven hrs before effects. I was going to take one more small toke to counteract.

Hello,
Thanks for reverting back to me.

I understand that you want escape but it is not a right method to do. As I said earlier stay close to your family members and stop taking further substance.

Thanks and regards

I did not do further. I will be more cautious and not mix. Is thc ok the meth? Doc, like i said, i am done after Turkey Day. I space tokes out usually in 1 to 2 hr intervals and i start w just two to three tokes. I stay hydrated i eat something ahead of time. I guess what i am saying is I try and be responsible.

Brief Answer:
That is ok but still risky

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Welcome back.

I understand that you are trying to be responsible but I do not think it is responsible behavior. In my view you need to stop it immediately and report to your therapist.
If you continue to take this in such a manner which causes or may cause permanent damage to your life I will prefer not to answer your questions.

Thanks and regards
