Wow. Hydrocodone OD. Not a fun way to go.

This sounds weird, as a biochemist would know that massive amounts of Tylenol lead to a slow and gruesome death as your liver slowly dissolves and your body builds up with toxins and every organ system begins to fail.

Hydrocodone OD Not a fun way to go.

How is that worse than other methods? Just curious.

“Wow. Hydrocodone OD. Not a fun way to go.”

Is there any way to go that could be considered fun?

I’m no pharmacist or coroner, but why would taking a massive dose of painkillers be an extraordinarily bad demise?

Codeine is not hydrocodone. Tylenol 3 has codeine, and a massive OD would cause respiratory depression and suffocation, which sounds worse than it feels, because you would be unconscious way before that happened. If you didn’t die right away, though, you might recover, only to die days later of liver failure from the tylenol. That wouldn’t be much fun.
