yes it does there are actually more types of alkaloids in raw opium so the addiction can be as bad or worse. the chinese had epidemic opium addiction in there country for a long time in the past.
Dude please stop posting out of your ass. Just because it has more opiates in it does not make it more addictive or more harmful. Opium has over 20 'chemicals' in it with its active ingredients being:
1)Morphine. - While it's powerful, it only is roughly 10% of opium's dry/cooked weight so you are getting a very minor dose of it. So your average dose can be about 5mg. That makes the morphine content all of 0.5mg. That is a light dose for smokable morphine.
2)Codeine. - This is found in less percentage than morphine. A recreational dose of codeine is 100mg+. There is not even that many milligrams in a single opium dose.
3)Noscapaine. - This has been found to contain little narcotic value on it's own. While it still reacts on the opioid receptors, it doesn't do much.
4)Papaverine. - Also has little to no narcotic value but contributes to constricting the blood vessels (causing the relaxation feeling).
5)Thebaine . - Little to no narcotic value alone. Pill companies use this to convert it to oxycontin. The synthesis itself is easy to find but 99% of the time will not include measurements and weights (just basic calculations) which is deadly if someone tried converting it.
Opium is not as addicting as you are trying to make it appear. All its active ingredients are very little and get even smaller when you do a dose of opium. Since all its primary ingredients involve the opioid receptors that's the 'high' you get. Many chemicals all going to the same place at the same time but in all little amounts.
While opium can be addictive and you can OD on it, the chances are pretty low. Unless, that is, if you do it on a regular basis and throughout the day (which is what I do) and I still have not became addicted. It all depends on the person. No drug effects everyone the same way.
does opium still have a high addictiveness like harry or not?
No it does not. Heroin is part
synthetic and part natural. Heroin must be converted from morphine. Morphine is naturally found in the poppy. Heroin is just a partly man-made drug made to increase the powers of morphine, cure addictions, medicinal uses, etc. When heroin was first synthesized it was marketed as a cure for morphine addiction, as a self-administered medicine (easily found, in those times, as a cough suppressant) and eventually was made illegal when we saw the long term effects.
You people (and by that I mean you bicycle racer) can't say a synthetic drug or extracted drug is less addictive than a natural one. Look at cocaine. Coca leaves aren't addictive and their active ingredient is cocaine. It's only addictive one the cocaine is extracted out.
That rule somewhat applies to opium. While still addictive, its addictive rate is increased if the morphine is extracted out (and used) and is more addictive if heroin is processed from that morphine (and used).
