Hello everyone... please forgive me if this is redundant, as I am a newbie to these forums. I have searched and have not found what I was looking for in previous posts, so here goes! I hope I am in the right place!
I have some Ms Contin 100mg pills. I would like to convert these to morphine hcl, so that I may snort them. I went to erowid.org, and there was a method posted there, but I am having a hell of a time getting this to work! This is what it says to do:

"Extraction is easy:

1) Dissolve crushed pills in water
2) _Slowly_ add _little_ drops of an NaOH solution until the water reaches pH 9. Be sure not to add too much, because then the extraction fails and nothing happens.
3) At pH 9 crystals should fall off, forming a clowd in the water. Put the glass in the freezer for about 10mins and filter out the crystals after that.

What you now have is pure morphine freebase. Changing to HCl salt is easy, too:

1) Dissolve in anhydrous (99 percent) alcohol.
2) Add 1ml of HCl and shake.
3) Let the alcohol evaporate (do NOT boil!) and you'll have some nice morphine hcl crystals.
4) Have fun."

So, I have tried the first couple of steps, and it is not working out. I bought the NaOH solution (or 100% lye, drain cleaner) but it is not forming crystals, I am just left with little pieces of the pills floating on top of the water which is impossible to filter out. It makes me wonder if I am not doing this correctly?
Has anyone tried this? If so, any advice? Or can anyone explain the process a bit clearer for me? Also, do I have to go through changing the ms contin to freebase and then to the Hcl salts to make it appropriate to sniff? or am I just suppose to follow the steps through the second part with the anhydrous alcohol? I am confused about the process.

I am only interested in making these pills usable to get the most out them when snorted (not interested in IV). I want the most out of the pills, as I am used to using Oxys, but MsContin is all that is available to me right now. I have tried to cook them with water and a spoon, I have tried making them into a solution to plug them (this method did not give me the buzz I was looking for at all), but I have had no success at all!

Please, if anyone has some clear advice on how to extract or convert them to morphine hcl so I can sniff them to get that good opiate experience, please respond. Again, this is my first post... so be gentle on me :? I did read some past posts, but did not see anything that could really outline how to do this by using the method I quoted above. If anyone has a better way, I am definitely interested in that as well!

Thanks so much for any advice or instructions anyone may have on this!!!
