IV methadone from tablets safe to inject after micron filtering with a 0.22μ wheel!?
Hello all...
I have been doing research, and forgot to mention one of my experiments during the methadone OR (opiate rotation without the therapy/treatment abbr. as it was self-medicated.... but then again, many people in my circle of friends do call me Dr., sort of in a bush doctor sort of sense).
Anyways, there has been a lot of dispute as to whether or not one can IV methadone. My answer is YES,
BUT:
The tablets i had, and from which I shot 10 mg/1 ml, which I think is common for the IV solutions dispensed anyways, were of a type that contained binders and other ingredients similar to those of a typical generic Morphine HCl tablet (not slow-release, jelly tablets, but the ones that are supposed to work as fast and with as much bio-availability as possible).
This means they contain ingredients similar to those, and along the lines of Subutex/Subuxone tablets, which, well what do you know, they can be filtered safely with minimal 0.45 micron wheel filters, but at best also 0.22 microns. Only things is that these tablets are big, and contain a lot of additives such as talk and lactose. So it was high pressure filtering.
And the shot *DOES* produce a rush. Not the heroin rush, but a very distinct rush that lasts about half a minute to a few, and then another sort of mellow sedative rush that slowly retracts after a few hours, and then the methadone otherwise just does it's thing and has some good legs to walk on.
So do not shoot other preparations of Methadone that contain any harmful ingredients. And do not apply heat unless sterilizing water before mixing with tablets (let it cool first, but in this timeframe, bacteria might get back in the mix). And please do not shot without using proper filters. Use micron wheel filters, and stay sterile. I only made one shot, but otherwise, store in a sterile place. I use a 10 ml syringe storage syringe which I sterilize with ethanol after every use, and I store it in an air-tight container that I also sterilize frequently.
And the reports that claim that Methadone burns when IV'ed, seem to be due to the concentration. 10 mg/ml and above is the safest way to shoot methadone. Apparently 20 mg/ml is supposed to burn and cause adverse effects. So a 3 ml shot with about 30 mg methadone in it, or what I shot, 10 mg in 1.5 ml, produced no adverse side-effects so far. I had eaten methadone (30 mg) before-hand, but it wasn't 'holding me' (I am in bupe treatment, and just used more than I should have over Easter where the clinic was closed and my tolerance soared). So start low if you must, especially with no to little tolerance.
One forum thread that inspired me:
Simple IV methadone
Otherwise Google it and sort through the hoards of disputes and misinformation/good-information-prone-to-misunderstanding.
And go to the
Imprtant threads in the OD directory, and do not use this post as a root for good/bad ideas, but rather as HR inspiration to do further reseacrh and clarify for yourself what the fuss is about.
Be rational about your choices, and stay safe, and enjoy life! Something tells me that IV methadone might also decrease the HL, as seems to be the case for IV buprenorphine.

P.S. I think that the contemplation and disputes are due to the fact that some people have tried IV'ing the syrups which contain sucrose and all sorts of stuff that is NOT EVER MEANT TO GO THE IV ROA.
