transdermal bioavailability of heroin?
this is a totally random thought/question -- but what is diacetyl-morphine's transdermal bioavailability?
I once knew a dealer who did absolutely not use dope, just sold it and made a good living off of it. he always handled it and separated it out w/ his fingers for hours every day and he claimed that when he took a break from dealing he got sick, dopesick I guess, he couldn't believe it or figure out what was going on at first, but he came to the conclusion that because he handled the shit so much w/ his hands every day enough was making it into his system over time to cause a minor dependency although he never felt any effects from it. I was very skeptical but I haven't been able to find any information on heroin's transdermal bioavailibility, so I have never been able to validate or disprove his claim.
is this possible? anyone care to shed some light on this?
