I have an orange-cap insulin needle, what should I do with it?

I've been a user of Percocet for years and OCs when they come my way, but I've never mainlined. I have the perfect needle and I want to try it out (don't worry, I have plenty of naloxone HCl at my disposal). However, I have no H and no OCs and I don't want to go looking for them until I establish better contacts for H or find a cheaper source for the OCs. (Yes, I'm broke - SHOCKING! 8) )

I have many 10 mg Percocets and plenty of Klonopin. I know Klonopin is stupid to inject, so that's out. And the acetaminophen in the Percocet (even when extracted) makes for a very worrisome injection. I'd be afraid I'd be doing it incorrectly and acetaminophen in the veins is a no-no. Do any of you know a sure-fire way to extract every bit of APAP from an oxycodone/APAP preparation?

I refuse to use street uppers, especially because they are filled with God-knows-what. This is why I prefer straight-up pharms; I like to know what I'm getting. However, if presented with the opportunity, I may inject Adderall.

I want the opportunity to experience booting something, because after years of every other form of ingestion, I'm ready for this one. So, knowing all this, and knowing that I am a more informed drug user than the usual, what do you suggest I do with this needle?

Well while that's certainly the most constructive thing to do with the situation at hand -- and indeed it's still an option -- I'm looking for more suggestions.

What he said.

Seriously do you really want to take the chance of getting your veins fucked up by shooting a pill?

Plus if you havent started now why even try?

I don't necessarily want to shoot a pill. I agree, that would be stupid as hell.

And I don't plan on "starting" anything. As pretentious as this sounds, it's for the sake of experimentation. I could go into my life story, which includes, among other things, the use of many addictive substances to which I have not become more than a wee bit dependent. I've worked in methadone clinics, needle exchange clinics, harm reduction non-profits, etc. I know the risks and benefits and I'm prepared (with naltrexone) to accept the consequences of this experimentation, should there be any.

All of your advice about breaking the needle is sound, and again I'll say that it remains an option, but I'm looking for other options -- ones that are as safe as can be. I am not flying blind here, I know the possible repercussions and I've weighed the risks and benefits.

So though I understand where you all are coming from, I'd appreciate it if you didn't treat me like an idiot.

Not if you have to ask about it no, there's not really anything you could carry out that would safely do this. The APAP is not the only problem anyway, those tabs contain large amounts of fillers.

The pharmaceutical tablets are filled with all sorts of things that are dangerous, sometimes life threatening, to inject. You would probably be better off injecting clean illicit amphetamine than an adderall tablet.

You aren't ready, clearly. Honestly, you do not sound particularly informed either. That doesn't mean to get discouraged or pissed off because a bunch of people didn't come on here and tell you what you wanted to hear instead of what you needed to hear. The more you learn the better off you'll be, and I'd suggest learning quite a bit more before doing.

I would get rid of it, and if all you are ever willing to use in this manner are the types of things you've mentioned, just shelve the idea permanently.

You don't want to fuck yourself up trying to chase a silly high, you know?

Take care of yourself.

Thank you, that's the best advice I could get. You gave me new information and turned my somewhat mistaken ideas around. I learned something. Can't say that about many of the rest of the replies I got.
 
Two more options: use it for a medical reason, if you have a legitimate medical use of it.

or, if your into chemistry(be it licit expirments for the sake of learning, or illict stuff), they are handy for sucking layers of of fluids up for seperation.
 
dont shoot pills there is to much fillers and binders in them. and since u said you dont wanna shoot street uppers. see if you can find some street opiates. or maybe ketamine. other then that i would just save it and put it away. never know when the oportunity comes up and have a chance to I.V something better then pills and you threw away the one needle u had.
 
I honestly don't know what you want us to tell you. You seem to have already made up your mind that you are going to wait until you find something "safe" to inject. Injecting is not usually a safe practice, and given your likeness of pharmaceuticals, I would suggest you don't inject anything. Do I really need to finish explaining this?

DO NOT IV PERCOCETS.

I know not to IV Percocets. However, I would be interested to know if there is a failsafe way to perfectly extract the oxycodone without any of the APAP or fillers.
 
You can do a cold water extraction which will remove most, but not all of the APAP and then drink the solution. Just do a search on cold water extractions, there's plenty of threads about it and it's really easy to do.
 
Yes even after attempting to do a cold water extraction on those percocet it would still contain undetermined amounts of apap in it . so injection would be highly ill advised , which has been stated by a few people here . my advice would be to wait until you have the chance to inject something with a far less risk factor (well of course anything injected will have a risk associated with it ) however some have less factors than others . Ie . H or even oxycontin put through a MICRON filter a few times not saying its safe or that im recommending it but those could be viable options . Dilaudid is also another option considered the holy grail of injectable pills due to the amount of active ingredient to binder ratio .

But youll come back to the fact that shooting pills is dangerous and has very nasty outcomes / damage on the body if made into a daily habit. which the consenus is that most people go needle never go back ..

I wouldnt do it personally but you know yourself better than we all do .
