ok so i'm looking into doing heroin, and the only thing i'm worried about is the constipation. how bad is it? and if you dont use it too often do u still get constipation? and how long does the constipation usually last and how often should u do heroin in regard with constipation? thanks
 
lol, that's a first. want to try heroin for the first time and the only thing is constipation?

you won't get bad constipation unless you are using regularly, like 4-5 days out of the week, in my experience. I've had it very bad before, lasting 3+ weeks without passing, but that was daily use of lots of heroin
 
If you are just going to try it once(and I dont many ppl that have done it just once) you wont have any noticable constipation with it.
 
its bad, but dont worry about it until youre addicted. and even then if you just dont get high for like 15 hours itll take care of itself.
 
If you've done other opioids this should be your best gauge. Heroin should cause constipation in proportion to the other effects so if you've used drugs like oxy or vicodin, if you take a dose of heroin and get the same effects, you'll get about the same amount of constipation.

Beyond this, there isn't any way we can answer this. There are too many variables such as your tolerance, your diet, your health, your size and so many other things.

If you'd like information on treating opioid-induced constipation, search around because there is a lot of info around but I don't see how we can answer your questions without just guessing. Basically, as people said - single use or rare/occasional use won't cause problematic constipation and using more frequently/larger quantities could

If anyone thinks this should be reopened for some reason, please feel free to PM me and we can discuss it :)
