I made up two rigs this morning with a bag in each, not really knowing if i would need the 2nd one right away. I feel pretty good off the first, so wondering if the other rig i have all set up will still be good in a few hours.
 
a few hours yes, put it in a cool, dark place. don't leave it all day though or you'll be shooting regular morphine.
 
Heroin/water solution will eventually deacetylate back into morphine. Or 6-mam. Although the degredation rates are not really clear. You're shot should be fine in a couple hours, although it isn't good to try and leave shots of dope sitting for more than that. Not only due to the degredation of the shot, but also unless your solution is totally sterile (micron filtered using bacteriostatic water) you also run the risk of bacteria growing.
 
if you're worried about bacteria at all, draw up a few units of ethanol and leave it for 5 mins, and it should be alright..

don't leave it sitting around for any longer than say 5-6 hours either..

upto 10% ethanol shouldn't cause too much damge to veins but give it a lil bit of a rest...
