Does plugging build tolerance faster than oral?

The only thing I could think of is more is absorbed while plugging, which could build up a slight more tolerance.
 
Hmm so the only reason that tolerance would increase is if the dosage was the same and the absorption rate was different? If say, I plug 10mg versus eating 15mg, it would theoretically be the same?
 
It depends on what you're plugging.

Some pills have 50% BA Orally and have 100% BA Rectally, so you'd be doubling.

What pills are you plugging?
 
But you have to remember World, Plugging a pill is next to IV in terms of euphoria RoA same with sublingual


He be pluggin dex

That will ruin his tolerance

but he don't beleive me
 
Yes, I know that plugging is basically like IV'ing a pill. What he's asking is if it could build up a tolerance faster, in which case the answer would be yes because more of the drug is being absorbed then it would orally. This would eventually lead to a higher tolerance.
 
Yup, its Dexedrine, and I was hoping that if I took a lower than oral dosage, then it would be around the same, if I orally take 20mg versus plugging 15mg, it would be around the same right?
 
Dexedrine has a BA of >75% according to Wiki, and Plugging is USUALLY around 80-95% BA, so techincally speaking if you took 10mg orally you'd only be absorbing 7.5mg, and if you plugged it you'd be absorbing 8-9.5mg.
 
You should at least satisfy your curiosity and try plugging.

I plugged dilaudid EVERY DAY for a year before my tolerance started to noticably hamper the effects.

But hey, it was a GREAT year :-)
