Generally, the seed pods and the opium are used for consumption. The seed pods are often prepared as tea, while the opium can be smoked or swallowed.

Opium can contain 2-25% morphine, but usually, it contains approximately 10%. So 100 mg of opium contain about 10 mg morphine. A good starting dosage is 30 mg of morhpine.

Seed pods are also very different in their content, but normally, 2-5 per each person is enough.
