I bought a granite mortar and pestle to crushed the beads from the hydromorph contin capsules. I noticed then when I put my finger into the mortar there is granite residues. I am a bit scared. Is it toxic to the organism, in particular veins or nasal cavities? The cottons filters gave in needles exchange can filter those granite particules?

Thanks in advance!
 
^granite particles will accumulate and eventually block a vein, your alveole etc. as your body can't metabolise and excete them.
If the particles are big enough a cotton filter should filter them, but better not try it and simply buy a new mortar and pestle

And use a micron filter if you inject pills!
 
Do you have any certainty about that? I mean, a good pestle and mortar is expensive.

What kind of pestle and mortar you guys use to crushed those beads? Stainless, marble?

If I put a sheet of waxed paper in the bowl, I might avoid this issue.

Any suggestions/alternatives are welcome!

To crushed those beads I used this time a glass and a ceramic pestle from a friend of mine. I checked with my finger and no ceramic particules appeared on nor during the process. It worked pretty well. I did that for about 15 minutes.

Then, I poured the fine powder in a paper sheet well sealed and applied my heavy granite pestle for an extra re-crushed. It was a 18mg HMC and surprisingly it doesn't make a lot of powder. The powder's color is kinda beige and not white as expected.

Is that normal? Someone has experienced it?
