Heroin Heroin #3 - Can it be or made to be snorted?

Howdy,

I've searched this and other forums and have been unable to find a firm answer whether #3 can be snorted efficiently (i.e. same as #4 or HCL)?

Alternatively if it needs to be converted to HCL is simply mixing it with a acidic powder and snorting suitable without being harsher than normal of the sinus cavities? I'm not confident that I'd be able to mix it into a liquid and then try it out without losing most/all of the product.

I've read numerous times that people have the opinion that the pH of the sinus/nasal cavaty is acidic enough that is will convert/break the base form into salt allowing it to absorb but I'm not sure how effective this is etc.

Of course when I stated that I'd like to have it as effective as snorting #4 I don't mean exactly but within 5-10% would be ideal if possible.

Also before anyone says just get #4 I do try but sometimes I have to settle and I'm not interested in injecting or smoking. It's not I look down on those methods it's just I have a thing doe snorting and when I have the HCL I'm content with snorting my H.

Thanks in advance and sorry if my search missed a thread which answers all my questions.

Cheers and be safe !!
 
In my experience #3 is snortable without preparation.
I don't know how much this matters, but your slimy things in your nose are a bit acidic.
Also #3 is not always a base.

Thanks for the reply!

So would you say it is within 5-10% the effectiveness of snorting HCl?

Also as you say #3 is not always base, does slight burn/sting when its snorted provide any indication as to whether its either/or?

Thanks again
 
Dry-mixing heroin with acids will cause more irritation than forming a salt in solution and adjusting the pH around neutral, with e.g. bicarbonate.

The water solubility of heroin freebase is much lower than that of the HCl or acetate salt, so it won't be absorbed nearly asquickly. but it will work.

The nasal mucosal pH is approximately 5.5-6.5, and increases in rhinitis to 7.2-8.3.

So if you're sick, might not be so good in comparison. 5.5 is acid enough to dissolve heroin.

If I were you I would mix with just enough vit c like you are going to shoot it and water line it.

This will be the most effective way.

There is a great chance you won’t absorb most of the freebase in your nose.

Salt forms are better for this type of administration.

Agreed. If you're intent on using that type of H intranasal, this is the most efficient way to do it.
 
Don't waste your time and snort as it is. Excess acid will just hurt your mucous membranes. The last times i used i snorted the no.3 most of the times, because of low tolerance. It was effective enough, maybe half the strength when i injected it, i would say even more.
 
When I use #3 I normally chase the dragon. But sometimes I take a line between.
The differences are:
smoking = rush, but shorter duration
nasal = no fast rush, but longer duration and i feel it's more efficient, but I like smoking too much, to stop smoking it

So a line would make a nice background noise while smoking the rest.
I wouldn't mix it with vit c. Burns too much for the effort.
Maybe I'm wrong here, that's just my rare experience.

That is the definition of wasting dope...

If you only use half a ml of vinegar and then dilute another half in there. It will be the most minor thing in the world...
