Stimulants Bioavailability of 5mg dextroamphetamine?

[Pixelguy]

Sup dudes,

A giant man eating monster of a demon child of mine has been experimenting with the dexties. He is a man of logic and needs to see the cold hard facts before making ny decisions. Anyway, he was wondering what the Bioavailability of 5mg dextroamphetamine intranasally was? He already knows but oral is around 75%.

On a side note, his also wondering about the duration of it when taken intranasally...

Thanks guys,
Pixelguy

We don't use "SWIM" or anything like that here. Say "me" or "I".

I'm a fan of snorting stuff, but I always take my dex sublingually. IIRC, 2 - 3x the potency of oral. I think it's a BA thing. The first result for "dextroamphetamine sublingual" beings up this thread, although I forget where the 2 - 3x figure comes from.

Oral consuption has by far the slowest absorption rate and lowest bioavailability. Sublingual administration competes with rectal administration, both being right behind IV. Sublingual Dex is more powerull then insufflated dex, and most people can easily tell that difference. Snorting things increases the rush, sublingual ROA increases it even more.

And, of course, snorting a 5 mg pill that weights 1/4 gram is not getting much bang for your buck, in terms of damage to the nasal mucosa.
