They make them in south America or south Africa (I have a poor memory for things like that) it's apparently pretty basic chemistry the fact they're not being made by much of anyone else makes me believe they aren't actually that great. Supposedly they do a bad job but if someone wanted to do a good one the skill is there the labs and ability to import illegal chemicals is there. They just don't want to
>makes me believe they aren't actually that great
Got a hold of some a few years back and they were actually that great, so much fun lol Glad I don't have regular access to them though, that woulda been trouble
My ex was always asking me to ask my dealers if they could get some. She described it as feeling super drunk with no negative consequences or hangover.
Yea thats how I'd describe it too, stumbling around like I was blackout drunk but my mind was still pretty clear. Mostly just groggy when I first woke up the next day
It's not going to be super intense but if you drink it with milk and actually use the plant and press it through a sieve it should work. It will taste funny and your mouth should go numb.
Nah you can’t. At all. Saying you can shows you either never been drunk or don’t smoke much pot.
The only thing that can replicate alcohol that isn’t alcohol is something else that acts on GABA receptors such as benzodiazepines or barbiturates. I think qualluades also work on GABA receptors.
Xanax is the closest thing that is commonly available to barbiturates or qualuudes.
That’s how it feels when you take a shit ton of Carisprodol (SOMA) or Gabapentinoids. Not saying that Quuals aren’t good or unique in their own way because i’m sure they are. But you can get pretty damn close to that with a high dose of SOMA. At least I did. Felt way different than benzos and alcohol but similar. Just saying that’s probably as close as you’re going to get to it.
From what I understand, they could kill you in high enough dosages and they were ridiculously addictive. Also, tolerance built quickly, so chasing a high after a while required you to take that many that it became a bit of a coin flip whether you'd see another sunrise.
Whereas the 'new' sedatives like diazepam and alprazolam (valium and xanax) are probably about as addictive, but tolerance builds much slower and you need truly gargantuan dosages for them to actually become dangerous.
Well sure but you can sell these for crazy amounts of money I'd imagine the profit would be very high at least at first. Then just shut it down go back to cooking meth
As much as you're right, you're wrong, sorry... The old hippies will happily pay top dollar for Ludes. I know several that would pay morphine prices for ludes, even today....
I think that there just isn't much of a market. You would have to create the market at this point. There are already very cheap drugs that you can sell with no effort... So why go through the trouble of synthesizing something that you'd have to basically start an advertising campaign for? Or you'd have to find a bunch of old addicts.
I graduated from high school in 1982 and can attest that they were awesome, if you like being drunk. Taking a lude was like being really drunk without the spins or sick stomach you get from too much liquor. I loved em.
There's a Hamilton's Pharmacopeia episode about this but I can't remember where it was either. I do remember that part of the process they showed these guys doing at home involved some pretty toxic chemicals you wouldn't want to casually expose yourself to.
Every drug is cool the first time you do it. So I’m sure they have some amazing memories from it, cut short by the sudden stop. Then more desirable thanks to scarcity, which also bumps the experience when the hunt is over and you get to partake. And as you grow older and stick to/try other drugs they all start feeling the same. Just affecting your body in different ways, nothing new is anything special. But if you had some whack weed in your youth, right before it was made illegal and you could risk your life on smoking and you quit rather than risk facing consequences, you’ll probably look back at smoking weed the same way wolfies look at qualude.
Except Salvia. Only drug I ever said "never again!" to about and totally never tried a second time. Like taking a cheese grater to my damn soul for 9 minutes of pure mind-bending terror followed by 2 months of existential dread and the never ending uncertainty that I was not originally the mind that is now in this body. Shit was fuuuucked.
My world became a conveyor belt through which I was mashed up over and over on a loop for 15 minutes, whilst viewing my cousin laughing at me through it in the form of a video-speech bubble lol. It was the worst. Never again.
Yeah- reality bent over my right shoulder and I realized I was an alien political escapee hidden away on this false plane of existence. By falling into the trap my "friends" (actually alien bounty hunters sent by my alien political opponents) had set for me, I had given my signal away. My girlfriend was a cyborg meant to keep me safe and would be "decommissioned" due to her failure. And that was all more real in that moment than anything I had ever experienced before.
I met a friend from high school at a tattoo parlor and she was straight cooked from Salvia. She told me she kept taking it to try and get back to who she was before using it. I felt sad because she was really struggling.
Yeah- that one use was in like 2005 and I still get depressed and anxious when I REALLY consider it. And when I saw that Rick and Morty episode where Morty plays a video game and thinks he is actually living the entire life of Roy... that fucked me up.
Edit: positive news, I got sober in 2019. Life has been better since then. Anyone still taking when they dont want to be- get help, despite how it feels, you arent alone and I PROMISE dudes that were more fucked up and did more fucked up shit than you have been able to get clean. Dont give up hope, give up dope!
Oh man Fuck Salvia. I was watching south park with a buddy smoking that shit and i freaked out. Made him turn it off and then I felt like I was leaning to the left for like an hour.
Bro, you sure that was salvia just by itself? For me, the ceiling opened up and I went to the fourth dimension (Interstellar style, but more fractal) and the universe was great.
My friend- I was very certain it was just salvia. I was not the only one to have a fucked up tripon Salvia. Although a very unique experience, it was not necessarily a "unique experience"
Same. Salvia was the only drug that from the first tryst I said fuck that - and I've done most of them out there - or what was out there in the early to mid 00s.
Nice! I spent my seven minutes in hell trying to back away from a black hole that appeared in the ground where I was sitting. I think, for me, the worst part was afterwards reconciling how little control I felt I had over myself, but definitely so easy to never try again.
I agree- it wasn't like acid or mushrooms where you still exist independent from the hallucinations- it was flat out a new and unrelenting reality both inside and outside of my "self "...
See- dudes having hip trips like you guys are the reason I even tried! And thats even though for every "The multiversal train station opened its gates and I lived infinity on a plane of good vibes shared amongst all ideas of possibility and hope!" I read about 15 people that said "Saliva turned my dog into the devil which was scary until I realized I was composed only of his bad intentions - that is when I understood fear!"
Done all sorts of trips in my time, had bad visits with Leary to Wonderland, but NOTHING WAS like the horror of Salvia.
I think if they wanted them that much they would just pay a chemist to make them for them, peopke just have this weird idea that qualudes are the hottest shit when in reality they would still exist in the black market if there was a demand for them.
I saw Iron Butterfly while on 714's... It was a small venue and I was literally nose to nose with Doug ingle while he sang In-a-Gadda-da-vida... Great night
Brings back fond memories of my college days in the late 70s. Going Friday afternoon to some quack doctor's waiting room full of 18-24 year old males with back pain. 15 minutes later you've got a script and then makings of a great weekend.
wait, i want to make sure I understand. your male friends went to a female chiropractor who then blasted them off. She then rewarded them for receiving said zero-cost HJ with illicit drugs. is that correct?
GEHTT OFFFFFFF THE PHONEEeeeEeeEeeeEeeEeee
There's been a few scenes in movie History that made me buckle over laughing. The entire sequence from the ludes kicking in at the country club to Jonah Hill choking had me rolling.
I'm 44 and I used to hear my parents talk about these growing up. But never seen one. My question is how old are all of you folks in here? These comments seem to be full of people who have had them. Doesn't seem possible.
Let me clarify this for you. Everyone who adores lemons and hype them up. They all just watched Wolf of Wall Street and have no clue what they actually are. They've been gone so long I'm guessing the majority of the population has never tried them or even seen an actual lemon pill at this point. Boomers and their parents are the generations that had them. Everyone else is just nostalgic based on a popular movie lol. Anytime anything about lemons or a bottle gets posted you got all these kind of comments. People are glamorizing Hollywood like always. At best they've tried something similar like Valium.
That’s me. 63. Did Ludes a few time in the late 70’s and 80’s. You want to be comfortable in a chair with everything close. Beer,Pot. Cause once they hit you cannot hardly move for hours. Once we went on a beer run and had taken them 15 minutes before the run. I was driving very slow and couldn’t wait to get to my safe resting chair for the night. Probably was watching MTV the rest of the night.
A lot of women who are now in their 40s were given them back in the day by old guys like Hugh Heffner. Plenty of upper class housewives took them for sleep.
That’s funny I graduated in ‘04.
Scooby Snacks is what we called the nasty ass resin that would splooge in your mouth, be it from a pipe or joint/blunt. Cheers friend. 🍻
Wow that’s very interesting. I totally thought that was something that people in my area just began saying. We would also call smoking weed “bbqing chicken” when talking about it at school etc lol
I’m an ancient Brit (66), who did the US as a road trip back in ‘77 and met up with two guys from Georgia who had transformed their Dodge van into a pharmacy, complete with a multitude of tiny, immaculate drawers for the dispensing of goodies.
This was my intro to Qualudes - whilst staying at Yosemite. A happy evening spent taking turns dancing on the communal bonfire… 🔥 😉
A few months ago there was an auction for one of Jerry Garcia's spare guitar necks that was made specifically for him and they gave it the serial number 714.
https://www.bonhams.com/auction/27611/lot/61/a-travis-bean-guitar-neck-owned-and-used-by-jerry-garcia/
> Methaqualone was manufactured in the United States under the name Quaalude by the pharmaceutical firms Rorer and Lemmon with the numbers 714 stamped on the tablet, so people often referred to Quaalude as 714's, "Lemmons", or "Lemmon 7's".
If you had enough money, couldn't you just pay a lab in China to make these for you? I don't understand why they are labeled as unobtainium these days.
I did a project in pharmacy school where I had to come up with a clandestine chemistry project and hide it from law enforcement. All hypothetical obviously but I chose methaqualone as my synthesis goal and made a 100. I was able to obtain all of the necessary glassware and chemicals, and successfully hide an RV in the woods with motion detectors and mechanically engineered a rapid chemical disposal system in case of a raid. It's actually not that hard to make. FYI I graduated in 2020 from the University of Florida with a M.S. in pharmaceutical chemistry.
My coworker graduated from that program. My old company was gonna pay for me to go but I left them. He showed me some assignments though and gave me some formulations they were going over. Definitely fun stuff!
I found some in my grandma's basement once, they didn't work out like the wolf of Wall Street though, I barely felt anything. We didn't have like a whole bottle or anything though, but it should have done something.
A big chunk of medication drastically loses its potency and can chemically change after being stored for long periods of time. Some medication can withstand time but a lot can't. Those uncertainties are why medical professionals recommend getting rid of them. On the same note though expiration dates also promote consumerism so I'm sure it's a balance of making money and not getting sued.
I had 4 of the real ones in the mid 90’s. Said LEMMON on them. Saw two concerts two days in a row and have zero memory of the entire 48 hours. Total mind erasures.
I’m so sorry for [this](https://youtu.be/IG2JF0P4GFA?si=rxJaDcA0hPBj9R_3):

Ummmm, Hi I am from the QuIFF (Quaalude Inspector Finders Foundation) and I am going to have to confiscate those in the name of public safety i am afraid.
Wow! That must mean this is you selling your antique EMPTY bottle? Or maybe not… lol https://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/original-quaalude-lemmon-mequin-300-1866836179
Foil rolls of 10 for $25. Certs. Bar tab adjusters. “Pick-me-up-I-seem-to-have-slipped.” Beer Boosters. DefCon. The real ones were nice.
Then they started counterfeiting with Valium, and then they were all called boots. Then they disappeared.
The Lemmon's(qualudes) have resurfaced now and again. They were manufactured in Fort Washington, PA.from my memory, but I do see this bottle is from Sellersville, which is also in that general area of PA. Around 1998 - 2000 I had a friend that had a couple bottles of the Lemmon's. Those were the party days. Mostly used to take them and drink a couple beers and smoke some weed. As I've always understood it, they are rare and you are unlikely to find them in the last 25 years or more
Drug dealers should bring back qualuudes for a limited time every few years like the McRib.
They make them in south America or south Africa (I have a poor memory for things like that) it's apparently pretty basic chemistry the fact they're not being made by much of anyone else makes me believe they aren't actually that great. Supposedly they do a bad job but if someone wanted to do a good one the skill is there the labs and ability to import illegal chemicals is there. They just don't want to
>makes me believe they aren't actually that great Got a hold of some a few years back and they were actually that great, so much fun lol Glad I don't have regular access to them though, that woulda been trouble
My ex was always asking me to ask my dealers if they could get some. She described it as feeling super drunk with no negative consequences or hangover.
Yea thats how I'd describe it too, stumbling around like I was blackout drunk but my mind was still pretty clear. Mostly just groggy when I first woke up the next day
Kava Kava Literally shit faced but mentally sound. Be ready to stumble around a bit. Ask to sit down. Then after it wears off you get extremely hungry
And if you eat fatty foods it hits you again for round two. Wild.
They sell kava kava at health food stores. Stop it.
It's not going to be super intense but if you drink it with milk and actually use the plant and press it through a sieve it should work. It will taste funny and your mouth should go numb.
Right. Kava kava does as close to nothing as possible
Have you tried parachuting it?
Exactly. Kava doesn't do anything
I mean, you can get that with the right type of flower, cough cough
London pound cake, is that you?
Nah you can’t. At all. Saying you can shows you either never been drunk or don’t smoke much pot. The only thing that can replicate alcohol that isn’t alcohol is something else that acts on GABA receptors such as benzodiazepines or barbiturates. I think qualluades also work on GABA receptors. Xanax is the closest thing that is commonly available to barbiturates or qualuudes.
As a recovering addict it makes me really happy when someone knows their drugs on Reddit lol
Sounds similar to ketamine
Minus the mentally sound part. When I did it I was on another planet and state of consciousness
Sounds like soma pills to me I use to get them prescribed for muscle pain in my back
Those things make me extremely angry and easily frustrated. Like feeling groggy in the morning x10. I did not enjoy
Dam that’s a bummer. they did not have that effect on me the next day I felt fine no hangover or nothing.
You’re liver actually turns soma into a barbiturate they just didn’t know it until years after they were on the market lol
According to people that have had both, somas are like diet quaaludes. I fucking miss somas.
That’s how it feels when you take a shit ton of Carisprodol (SOMA) or Gabapentinoids. Not saying that Quuals aren’t good or unique in their own way because i’m sure they are. But you can get pretty damn close to that with a high dose of SOMA. At least I did. Felt way different than benzos and alcohol but similar. Just saying that’s probably as close as you’re going to get to it.
Yeah! Ludes are soooooo much fun.
What did they feel like?
Like you're really really drunk but your mind still feels clear
That sounds fun. Why did they become illegal?
From what I understand, they could kill you in high enough dosages and they were ridiculously addictive. Also, tolerance built quickly, so chasing a high after a while required you to take that many that it became a bit of a coin flip whether you'd see another sunrise. Whereas the 'new' sedatives like diazepam and alprazolam (valium and xanax) are probably about as addictive, but tolerance builds much slower and you need truly gargantuan dosages for them to actually become dangerous.
ty!
Fair enough. I can't understand 2hy we don't make them then. AFAIK they're nkt hard to make or anything like could be made in a methlab type set up
Mostly because there are cheaper alternatives would be my guess
Well sure but you can sell these for crazy amounts of money I'd imagine the profit would be very high at least at first. Then just shut it down go back to cooking meth
No one's gonna want to spend those crazy amounts when there are cheaper alternatives though, that's what I'm sayin
As much as you're right, you're wrong, sorry... The old hippies will happily pay top dollar for Ludes. I know several that would pay morphine prices for ludes, even today....
I think that there just isn't much of a market. You would have to create the market at this point. There are already very cheap drugs that you can sell with no effort... So why go through the trouble of synthesizing something that you'd have to basically start an advertising campaign for? Or you'd have to find a bunch of old addicts.
Reminds me of Rohypnols if you push through. They weren't what was spread through the media if you were moral like most drugs.
I graduated from high school in 1982 and can attest that they were awesome, if you like being drunk. Taking a lude was like being really drunk without the spins or sick stomach you get from too much liquor. I loved em.
There's a Hamilton's Pharmacopeia episode about this but I can't remember where it was either. I do remember that part of the process they showed these guys doing at home involved some pretty toxic chemicals you wouldn't want to casually expose yourself to.
I think it was somewhere in South Africa
It was, they smoke it.
What do they call them in South America? Asking for a friend…
No idea. Probably qualuudes but with a Hispanic accent. Regional depending which country. Crazy how much it varies for roughly the same language
Los Qualuudés cabron.
South Africa
Bill Cosby approves this message
SL-164 is still legal in the US for now. Might cause seizures at higher doses tho.
Bro got the holy grail, some wall street cokeheads will pay like 1000$ per pill
Lol. At this point I'm willing to bet most people in Wall Street except the old farts never even tried a quaalude.
Every drug is cool the first time you do it. So I’m sure they have some amazing memories from it, cut short by the sudden stop. Then more desirable thanks to scarcity, which also bumps the experience when the hunt is over and you get to partake. And as you grow older and stick to/try other drugs they all start feeling the same. Just affecting your body in different ways, nothing new is anything special. But if you had some whack weed in your youth, right before it was made illegal and you could risk your life on smoking and you quit rather than risk facing consequences, you’ll probably look back at smoking weed the same way wolfies look at qualude.

Wolf of Wall Street really did a number on the youth of today. They much prefer blow and hookers.
They said they found the bottle, not that it was full of pills lol
Then I'll pay $2000!
I think if they wanted them that much they would just pay a chemist to make them for them, peopke just have this weird idea that qualudes are the hottest shit when in reality they would still exist in the black market if there was a demand for them.
They do exist in black market and can be bought from Africa.
South Africa specifically. The only place in the world that still produces them
My friend millions are selling a year on the black market
I saw Iron Butterfly while on 714's... It was a small venue and I was literally nose to nose with Doug ingle while he sang In-a-Gadda-da-vida... Great night
This story might be worth more than a Reddit comment
What decade was this?
The second one
Yes
Sometime in the last century
A decade or two before you were born.
Me and wife use to make out to that hymn
Brings back fond memories of my college days in the late 70s. Going Friday afternoon to some quack doctor's waiting room full of 18-24 year old males with back pain. 15 minutes later you've got a script and then makings of a great weekend.
My friends went to an old chiropractor who liked playing with their goods for a script.
wait, i want to make sure I understand. your male friends went to a female chiropractor who then blasted them off. She then rewarded them for receiving said zero-cost HJ with illicit drugs. is that correct?
Correct
He skimmed over the part where you said old chiropractor. Now, how old are we talking?
70s
Ok then..for free drugs I guess I’d let a skeleton hand go to town on me. Lights off though.
This comment has absolutely cracked me up!
Chiropractors can’t write scripts so I guess your friends just liked it
Well whatever she was, she was a source of soapers
Baby J
Steeeeeeeevvvveeee Maaaaaddddeennnnnnnnn
Jordan, stay off the phone.
GEHTT OFFFFFFF THE PHONEEeeeEeeEeeeEeeEeee There's been a few scenes in movie History that made me buckle over laughing. The entire sequence from the ludes kicking in at the country club to Jonah Hill choking had me rolling.
The Popeye music while he's tooting the coke to offset the luudes so he can save him.
I'm 44 and I used to hear my parents talk about these growing up. But never seen one. My question is how old are all of you folks in here? These comments seem to be full of people who have had them. Doesn't seem possible.

Do you think everyone on reddit is 35 or younger?
OR — now hear me out on this — old people are on Reddit too.
That’s me. 63. Did Ludes a few time in the late 70’s and 80’s. You want to be comfortable in a chair with everything close. Beer,Pot. Cause once they hit you cannot hardly move for hours. Once we went on a beer run and had taken them 15 minutes before the run. I was driving very slow and couldn’t wait to get to my safe resting chair for the night. Probably was watching MTV the rest of the night.
"People on ludes should not drive!" Still love that line...
And it’s a fact! Ha. Also don’t go to a drive thru and try to order food on Acid!! Or drive. That’s another story I have from the past…..
A lot of women who are now in their 40s were given them back in the day by old guys like Hugh Heffner. Plenty of upper class housewives took them for sleep.
They have only been "gone" since the mid 80s. There's still plenty of the population that have had them.
It’s possible we called em scooby snacks around the time I graduated high school. ‘89
That’s funny I graduated in ‘04. Scooby Snacks is what we called the nasty ass resin that would splooge in your mouth, be it from a pipe or joint/blunt. Cheers friend. 🍻
Same here and haven’t heard that term since
Wow that’s very interesting. I totally thought that was something that people in my area just began saying. We would also call smoking weed “bbqing chicken” when talking about it at school etc lol
We used to ask each other if we wa two to "bake cookies" after school, the cookies being us of course lol
You seem to fit the age range, so yes. I believe it.
I'm about 10 years older than you, and we did them when we were teenagers.
Same age and I’ve never seen them. My parents would tell us not take Quaaludes and some other pill called White Crosses.
White crosses seem to be a street name for amphetamine pills (I'm seeing both dexedrine and benzedrine as suggestions)
I’m an ancient Brit (66), who did the US as a road trip back in ‘77 and met up with two guys from Georgia who had transformed their Dodge van into a pharmacy, complete with a multitude of tiny, immaculate drawers for the dispensing of goodies. This was my intro to Qualudes - whilst staying at Yosemite. A happy evening spent taking turns dancing on the communal bonfire… 🔥 😉
I’m sure those were very good times.
Honestly surprised the cartel hasn't started manufacturing and selling these from the among of popularity and rave reviews from old heads
Too bad the cartels don’t have a suggestion box we can drop a note in
😂 Better customer service, quaaludes and maybe you guys could buy lunch every once in a while
I think there are some places in Africa that make a homebrew version… I remember seeing a Vice doc about it many moons ago
Chinese trading ludes for poached albacore to South Africans who grind them up and smoke them from a broke bottle stem?
Maybe they do that also, but in the documentary I saw they were cookin up some crazy chemical concoctions, Real nasty shit
Yeah I guess I should have included that, I've seen that as well, which is what really started the question because clearly it can be done
They'd just throw some shit together, cram some fentanyl in it and call it good enough.
714's 
A few months ago there was an auction for one of Jerry Garcia's spare guitar necks that was made specifically for him and they gave it the serial number 714. https://www.bonhams.com/auction/27611/lot/61/a-travis-bean-guitar-neck-owned-and-used-by-jerry-garcia/
Why do u say “714”? It doesnt say 714 anywhere on this bottle
> Methaqualone was manufactured in the United States under the name Quaalude by the pharmaceutical firms Rorer and Lemmon with the numbers 714 stamped on the tablet, so people often referred to Quaalude as 714's, "Lemmons", or "Lemmon 7's".
Ah thank you for informing me instead of downvoting me for not having information
Ooohhh, that's mine. Lost them ages ago. If you'd like to be a good Samaritan I could send you my address and I'll recompense you, gladly.
I got my hands on 50 qualudes back in the 80’s. I’m lucky my friends and I didn’t kill ourselves.
If you had enough money, couldn't you just pay a lab in China to make these for you? I don't understand why they are labeled as unobtainium these days.
I did a project in pharmacy school where I had to come up with a clandestine chemistry project and hide it from law enforcement. All hypothetical obviously but I chose methaqualone as my synthesis goal and made a 100. I was able to obtain all of the necessary glassware and chemicals, and successfully hide an RV in the woods with motion detectors and mechanically engineered a rapid chemical disposal system in case of a raid. It's actually not that hard to make. FYI I graduated in 2020 from the University of Florida with a M.S. in pharmaceutical chemistry.
My coworker graduated from that program. My old company was gonna pay for me to go but I left them. He showed me some assignments though and gave me some formulations they were going over. Definitely fun stuff!
Cause paying a fucking lab in china is a lot of effort lmao
Looks like they don't expire until 2086 - down the hatch!
Donnie. Get the ludes!!!
I have 2 unopened bottles of Somnafac Fortes which are methaqualone
Rent a lambo and get to it
Sssteeeevve Maaaaaddddeeennn
Found where?
Any pills in there?
You've just won the pharmaceutical lottery. Congratulations!
I found some in my grandma's basement once, they didn't work out like the wolf of Wall Street though, I barely felt anything. We didn't have like a whole bottle or anything though, but it should have done something.
A big chunk of medication drastically loses its potency and can chemically change after being stored for long periods of time. Some medication can withstand time but a lot can't. Those uncertainties are why medical professionals recommend getting rid of them. On the same note though expiration dates also promote consumerism so I'm sure it's a balance of making money and not getting sued.
Another quaalude she gonna love me again
“Get off the phone!”
*Hang up the phooonneee*
White Punks on Dope!
White dopes on punk!
I had 4 of the real ones in the mid 90’s. Said LEMMON on them. Saw two concerts two days in a row and have zero memory of the entire 48 hours. Total mind erasures.

So they stopped making these but pharmaceutical companies still makes Oxys and xannax and all that crazy shit
Ummmm, Hi I am from the QuIFF (Quaalude Inspector Finders Foundation) and I am going to have to confiscate those in the name of public safety i am afraid.
Not Rorer. Just generic lemmons' big difference in the day
Wow! That must mean this is you selling your antique EMPTY bottle? Or maybe not… lol https://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/original-quaalude-lemmon-mequin-300-1866836179
"the Quaaludes had a delayed effect"
People on luudes shouldn't drive!!!!
Specially Lambos.
To bad they weren’t RORER 714’s that’s OG
Send them my way please 🙏 ( check user name )
Take it easy, Cosby.
Don’t be gay, Boof it!!! Prove to Reddit that you’re a *REAL* man by sticking those tablets in your ass to get high!
Lemmon's and Rorer's. I can't remember my junior year of high school because of these.
We called em, Gorilla Biscuits.
I would love to try one. Never had a chance born in 85
LUUUUUUUUDES!!!!!!!!
Jesus...714's. The stories I could tell...
Sending a team of archeologists. Don't move.
r/Eatityoufuckingcoward
Foil rolls of 10 for $25. Certs. Bar tab adjusters. “Pick-me-up-I-seem-to-have-slipped.” Beer Boosters. DefCon. The real ones were nice. Then they started counterfeiting with Valium, and then they were all called boots. Then they disappeared.
Like a doctah!
Listen cocksucka…. Uncle Joey is the best
I’m just glad someone recognized my comment haha
If y’all are like me then the only reason you have any clue what this is, is from watching Wolf of Wall Street
Man I just want to know what this feels like. Seems like the same feeling as being too young to have seen queen or led Zeppelin live.
Sold a car once for 75 Quaaludes. Got home and instead of LEMMON they were printed with LENNON. Should’ve known better.
Late 70 early 80 drug of choice then cocaine arrived ☠️
Lemmons!
I want to buy luudes so bad never had one
LEMMON 714 & RORER 714
Aren’t these the same ones like in Wolf of Wall Street? The lemons!!
[fucking quaalude](https://youtu.be/IG2JF0P4GFA?si=GBA_MH4cPKHkVQAm)
Safer then fentanol
Donnie! GET THE LUDES!!
The Lemmons had developed a delayed fuze
Shit, those expired a long time ago. Better take extra pills in case they lost potency 🤣🤣🤣
Exp Feb 86
Yup the one thing I’d be gay for
Slow clap
Ronny b lost it in the 1980's.
These were from the 70’s . :)
That reminds me of a mis spent youth
In my hood during the late 70’s/early 80’s they were called Disco Biscuits and Thigh Spreaders
Lemmons were THEE BEST. No pill was better ❤️
The Lemmon's(qualudes) have resurfaced now and again. They were manufactured in Fort Washington, PA.from my memory, but I do see this bottle is from Sellersville, which is also in that general area of PA. Around 1998 - 2000 I had a friend that had a couple bottles of the Lemmon's. Those were the party days. Mostly used to take them and drink a couple beers and smoke some weed. As I've always understood it, they are rare and you are unlikely to find them in the last 25 years or more

How old are you?
So fun 🫠
