anyone know?

The bioavailability is really shit, it's not worth it.

Why?

 

[Jabberwocky]

i thought the bioavailability was usually higher on drugs if taken orally/rectally > sniffing/smoking

 

[Mr Blonde]

Not with H, it doesn't get absorbed well due to it's chemical structure.

And with a lot of drugs, snorting it can have a higher BA then oral. It's a good idea not to make too many assumptions, treat each drug differently and do research into what it's information is.

There is a bioavailability mega thread here, it might even be on the first page I think... check it out for some info.

Since heroin converts to morphine in the liver, and morphine doesnt have a good oral BA, I would assume the same could be said for heroin.

The acetyl grouping on heroin(diacetylmorphine) makes it especially capable of passing the BBB quickly, which is why its most commonly injected. It also has a very high intranasal BA. Eating it is a waste, just like eating morphine is a waste.

You can also smoke heroin, but it must be pretty damn pure to get a good high off it.

Ordinarily I would bang about 1/8 - 1/16 of a gram of "Mexican" blacktar heroin at a time, but once I swallowed a gram of tar in ball with water, thinking it might just keep me high all day, but instead it felt like I swallowed an evil little scarab that chewed on my stomach wall in one spot all day. I didn't get high at all, or even really "well." It sucked. Bad. I wouldn't recommend it.

Couldn't tell you about swallowing the white powder type. Never tried that, having already been intenstinally gnawed upon by the blacktar scarab beetle.

Heroin has a much lower oral BA than snorted, there's no need to take heroin orally unless you're trying to taper yourself off.

Eating it is a waste, just like eating morphine is a waste.

This is the truth.
