Cold or warm water when dissolving amphetamine?

[JimRaynor]

I have searched but haven't found anything reliable about this. There appears to be much confusion arising from speed being amphetamine (sulphate) in Europe and mainly Meth in USA.

My question is about dissolving regular street amphetamine such as that can be found on the streets in europe. Should one use warm or cold water when preparing a solution for intravenous injection? Since amphetamine has a relatively low solubility in water and dissolves better in warm water, is it safe to then use warm (hot) water when preparing the solution?

Normal amps not sure but crystal meth literally instantly dissolves at the slightest touch to moisture in my experience. Its bad enough that doing lines basically turns it all to liquid and it runs down the back of your throat shortly after. Its annoying. How i miss heavily cut coke that actually stays in there long enough...

Room temperature water is really the best to use. It is still relatively warm, and is safe to use right away. I don't think injecting very hot or very cold water is a good thing. It may not matter, I'm not sure as I don't IV.

I do know that it matters when plugging. You don't want hot or cold, you want room temperature or be prepared to rush to the bathroom.

Yeah, room temperature distilled water, or better yet SALINE.

If its too hot you will be dissolving undesired impurities...

Which then go into your veins, and could potentially become blood clots, or an embolism...

But colder water also means more water is needed to dissolve all the AMP, and that also means more water for the impurities to dissolve in. Does it really matter in the end as long as the water is about body temp when injecting?

Body temp water would close to 100 F, obviously a little lower but still. That's too warm, almost hot. You want room temperature, 68-72 F. That's not cold, you won't need a bunch more water to dissolve, amphetamines rate at dissolving in room temperature water per mL is pretty high. You're making this more than it is.
