    Black tar heroin has less side effects and is less addicting – also, if you are uninsured – heroin is cheaper in the long run.

    Both oxycontin and heroin are opiate medications. Black tar Herion is not as purified as oxycontin. Therefore it is not as strong. Their is less oxycodon in the Black Tar Heroin. I do not know of any one smoking oxycontin but I do know that to abuse it people chew it to release all the medication at one time when it is supposed to be released over a 12 hr period. It is also broken up and melted in water, heated in a spoon and put in a syringe and shot up intraveniously. I obtained this information by working at a clinic for those who are drug addicted.

    Sounds like you just want to get high. Try black tar heroin and watch your life go down the drain fast. It is one of the most addictive substances out there and can get you arrested a lot faster then abusing a pain med. Not that I think you should do either but you did ask.

    And if this is for a legitimate injury/problem, no doctor I know of is going to prescribe or suggest an illegal, highly addictive substance over a legal-to-prescribe medication.
