most likely mailorder unless
most likely mailorder unless you live close enough to the border to drive. Have you noticed any personality changes or mood changes with your son. New friends or no longer old ones. I honestly think it would be better if he were selling them, but unfortunaltely most people that have oxycontin sell it to support their own habits. I wish you both the best. I'm also gonna say that when the oxy runs out and is no longer available a lot of young people start using heroin. It might be hard for you to understand this b/c it seems you take your pills correctly, speaking of which have any ever come up missing? But when used illicitly oxycontin can be just as strong if not stronger than heroin, and it is a lot cleaner b/c you know you are getting just what you paid for.

did u ask your son
what did your son say? If they were in a pillow, then he obviously is trying to hide them. If he has a lot of cash or new things that you did not purchase for him, then maybe and for his healths sake, maybe he is just selling them. Im just assuming he is younger or a teenager. My cousin was selling them and her mom found out because she had a lot of new clothes and worked as a waitress making 2.50 an hr. w/ lousy tips and then all of a sudden she had all kinds of new things that her mom knew she didnt buy with her paychecks. So if he has stuff like that or a lot more cash then hes probably selling. I hope you find out fast, because my cousin ended up eating more than she sold then became addicted to heroin when she couldnt get any more pills.And then she overdosed 2x and she still hasn't learned her lesson. And a year ago, she was a straight A student and we just dont know what happened. Good luck. Also, smart move on your part hiding your pills in a safe. Its like when people find out you have pain meds, then everyone is "sick" asking you for one or two. Im so sick of that.

Don't think we could overstate the potential danger here
oxycet percontin I don't mean to intrude and you are doing at least the first step in what you should be doing, identifying the pills, however I could not possibly overstate how dangerous the potential for abuse is for 150 ea 80 mg Oxycontin, much less the danger of overdose, by your son, or any of his friends. Or any full size adult for that matter. I don't know how old they are, but a little time on the internet would teach them quickly how to kills themselves with these pills.
Please put these in your safe too and get to the bottom of this with your son "yesterday". Any other voices of reason out there? If he were selling them, he could be getting $80 per pill as folks that pay that much truly intend to abuse them in the worst possible way. You don't want your son to be responsible, or you to perhaps be liable for that. You don't want the kind of folks that would pay $80 per pill for this to be hanging around your son, or your house......
This stash is closer to pure heroin than any heroin generally found on the street................
I don't mean to scare you, but be scared, respect the potential danger please.
I've had CP for years and I'm not sure if I would eat even 1 of these orally. I'm 190 lbs and one 40 mg every 12 hours is enough for me taken as per prescription.

I tried, but I kinda don't
I tried, but I kinda don't know if this guy really cares. So please tell us, do you care? Oxy is bad stuff. Better than most H-which is sorry to say. With 150 there is really no way he's not both selling and "eating" em like candy. Every person I know that has gone to rehab or jail started out doing oxy, then when it's gone-you start getting Dope. Just facts. Xodol, people that just know you, shouldn't know all your business. If they are sick then tell them to go to rehab-maybe you have, and if so I commend you on that. Anyways I can't see how you would have missed this for so long oxyperc. It doesn't start with 150, not at the price they go for these days.

ill talk to him
Your statement "ill talk to him" is quite an understatement. You say that you are the dad here. My suggestion is to take these pills from your kid and find out what the heck happened, why he has them, who did he get them from, etc. If this product is yours, it is no less dangerous and will kill any full grown man/woman, if misused.
I'm not kidding, if you are the dad, please act like one and handle this. If the product is yours then please be careful with it. This thread started on August 5, then you posted again on Aug 9 and said you keep "your" pills in a safe, insinuating that you had not put his pills in your safe yet. Please don't tell us that you did nothing about these pills between August 5 and 9th, or even yet, by today.

I know exactly what you're
I know exactly what you're saying! I have so many people I know who ask the same thing, then get mad when I won't give or sell any of my PRESCRIBED mediaction! I try and try to explain that I get them for a reason, and need them for that same reason.
I have also had people I thought were good friends I could trust live with me, and watch my son, only to find out later that they were stealing a pill here or there, thinking I wouldn't notice. When I kicked one person out for it, she came back one day when I didn't know it and stole a whole bottle of 60 pills that I did hide. that's bad when I have to hide my meds in my own house, and only allow trusted people in, and my meds STILL get stolen. Now, I don't let anyone but certain family members in my house. When there's been more than a couple people in, I still count all my meds every time just to be sure.

That x*#&s
I haven't had people beg pills from me so much, but I have them occasionally judge me for taking them. They have never walked a day in my "pain shoes" yet some folks think I'm a wimp and a drug addict for not "manning" it out, because "they would". Yet these same people might drink a 12 pack of beer a day....
I have however been missing pills before which is not a good feeling when you've only been around people you are supposed to trust. And best of all on more then 1 occasion the pills were missing around the folks that were the most judgemental about me taking them. "Thou doth protest too much" (Is that the quote). Sometimes its the folks that are the most vocally judgemental that are the "closet users" themselves.
When my son has a party, I lock them all in the safe.
No whining

Do these people know you are
Do these people know you are a social worker, just me but I wouldn't ask a social worker or a police officer if I could buy their pills.

BAD, thats 150 80 mg oxycontins from purdue (canadian), to you live in Canada? If not they must be mailorder. If he has 150 he's got a bad habit or could be selling them.
