That is, heating it in a spoon with a little water as if making a shot, and then snorting the liquid. How high are the risks of possible bacterial infection or any other problems from doing this? And is it bad to reuse the same pen-tube for snorting twice? I've tried this method once and it was very effective but I want to know more before doing it again. I've always been a smoker so the idea of actually putting it in my body concerns me a little, considering how dirty tar probably is.

I don't think you want to actually snort the liquid like you would a pile of powder, you want to suck it up into an oral syringe and then shoot it slowly into your nostril making sure you are injecting it slowly as to not just have the liquid go down your throat.

Oh and you can only get about 0.75ml in each nostril at most before it will just drip and waste. So don't use a lot of liquid.

I think it's far easier on your body to snort it vs smoking it. Also, as you said it's the same method you use to IV it, except you are dripping it into your nostrils, so if it was really that harmful to snort it wouldn't you think that a lot more people would have infections from IVing it directly into their bloodstreams? Heating the solution is not necessary though, unless maybe the tar absolutely won't dissolve after being it the water for a while. If you do heat it, allow it to cool down to room temperature before filtering it so that the cuts will be filtered out.
 
This is really difficult to say because there is no way to know what your tar is cut with. There have been samples found to contain coffee grounds or shoe polish and I can't imagine consuming those intranasally being remotely safe but there is no way to know what it is cut with.

You would be much better off filter it through cotton or preferably a micron filter if you want to do this.
 
I'd say just slam it or smoke it. If u don't do needles just chase the dragon off some foil be a hell of a lot easier. (Probably more efficient to) liquid would just run down ur throat or pour out. Get an empty nasal spray thing and do it that way if ur dead set on doing it nasaly.

Why would you recommend this to somebody on a harm reduction forum, especially when they said that they found snorting it to be very effective?
 
My reccomendation from experience is to get as much as you can into as small amount of water as you can so it doesnt just drip down your throat. I can get about 3 hits of tar (smoked) into a fat drop or two usually. This is actually my way of testing my shit before I IV. When you get this liquid up your nose, it is best to lay back on a couch or whatever and let gravity keep it up there for a few minutes at least so it can absorb. My only warning is (besides heroin's massive addiction potential) is the more concentrated you get the dope in the liquid, the worse its going to taste when eventually at least some of it comes through. Stay safe though, I find this ROA far more effective than smoking.
As per the original questions about infections, do not reuse the same pen tube unless you keep it somewhere sterile. Wash your hands before you liquify your dope as well.
 
I dont get it. Grind it up. Or smoke it.

What dont you get, and how would someone go about grinding up tar heroin? Some people prefer to snort heroin since it lasts longer than smoking or IVing, and is safer than IVing it. With black tar heroin though you need to make a solution in order to administer it nasally, but that's not that difficult to do considering prepping for IV is more work, and smoking it is a process too.

People go to a lot more extreme measures to get high [read: OP OxyContin micro-freeze method] so adding water to heroin and dripping it into your nose is simple compared to those other methods.
 
Ive never seen it. I assumed it was a black rock you could grind up with a ped egg. Just seems like a waste. Mos t of that is going to a drip.
 
Tar implies that it has the consistency and viscosity of.... tar. Like sticky gooey like certain kinds of hash, in that it's malleable....

If you don't have any experience with tar, I'll fill in the gaps. Waterlining is a much better way to administer tar, I prefer saline to water as it's less irritating on the epithelial membranes, it's certainly not wasted unless you have terrible technique.

I use that method to snort suboxone strips, and I barely get any drip at all. You just put a few small drops in each nostril, wait a minute or two, and repeat until done. As long as you do it slowly, keep your head tilted back when you do it, and don't sniffle (like you would to clear snot), then you get no more drip than you would when sniffing any powder.

I actually think I got less of a drip by using a solution compared to a powder since there is no need to actually sniff at all, so theres no suction or sniffing with each line bringing it to the back of the throat. You could also put the solution in a nasal spray pump which emits a mist, and that wouldn't cause much drip either.

I used to snort sub strips way back when lol. ;P Found it to be very effective.
 
You should put it in a nasal spray bottle. That seems to me if your going to do it would be the best way. And @ Tommy. Yeah the way YOUR suggesting sounds legit but most people aren't that smart and are gonna think "more I put in nose at once = higher" so there going to just pour water in there nose almost like an old style nasal clearer.

I don't know. Personaly I think you should smoke it. It's safer than injecting and more effective than snorting. I never seen tar but I have smoke ALOT of powder and ALOT of OG OC's. 80's ofc. Infact Smoking is the only way you can still abuse the new OP's. I wouldn't recommen it though with the OP's. Alot of filler, it tastes nasty. But if your sick...it does work. Oh and you need to hold the fire there longer.
 
Smoking oxycontin... not healthy at all, if you're sick wouldn't you rather pop it orally and benefit from the time release?

Saline bottle is the best, using saline vs. water is also easier on the nose.

Well that's why I DON'T recommend it for the new ones. It is a pain in the ass. And yes. If I was given a OP I'd proably chew it the best I can and drink with alot of orange juice. The 2 times I tried I didhalf nd half. Half down the hatch half on the foil. The only benefit is if your deathly dope sick you do feel relief in about 30 seconds. That's pretty much the only reason why I did it.
 
Don't try to chew OPs, your going to chip a tooth doing that bro. My best friend had this happen to him when OPs first came out.

I'd eat like two whole grapefruits with some potentiators, and I sublingual the OPs, takes fuckin 2 hours! While an entire xanax bar dissolves under tongue in less than 120 seconds, pathetic.

Lmao...sorry to hear that. But I have chewed them and havent chipped anything...yet...ha.

I actually had trouble with SL xanax. I tried it theo ther night cause I had a full stomach and I still had like most of the bar left after 30mins.
 
God I don't know how anyone can stand the taste of sublingual xanax.

Compared to injecting, snorting tar is safer and can be more effective than smoking, though the residual acetic acid can be irritating, and since it takes a few minutes to kick in it might be easier to accidentally over do it compared to smoking.Just snorting the liquid works, but I think intranasal liquid tar would be better if a mucosal atomization device was used, like with flu vaccines or Narcan. Is there any place that sells mucosal atomization devices to individuals(isn't links to harm-reduction material like micron filters allowed)?
