Opiate Health Risks

Aside from addiction, obviously, are there really any negative effects from occasional use of opiates?

From occasionally using? Not really.

The only thing I realize is that sometimes you cant piss for a few hours (due to the μ-opioid receptor me thinks).

i dont think opiates are too good for your liver either

Definately correct, especially when they come mixed with APAP (acetominophen) or if you mix them with other drugs (especially alcohol). But for a short term use, or occasionally, this shouldn't be a problem. But still a valid point.

withdrawels are the worst, but occasional use shouldnt be a problem
