I need to know

[HT harm redux]

Ok, so this thread will probably be closed for whatever reason. but Ive heard so many ppl say that theres a point to snorting benzos and ive heard arguments against. Ive heard things about the amount of drug being so little that the binders clog and u just get a nasty drip that gives you the feeling. ive even heard something about lipid solubility. So I want straight facts on this thread before it gets closed if anyone reads it before that happens. is there a point. some people say theres a rush, that could be all in your head, or it could be real. i want facts. i know theres probably other threads that answer this but im too lazy to look for them right now. so please enlighten me with facts.

Different benzos have different rules. Diazepam won't give a rush even if injected, while clonazepam and alprazolam are generally regarded as giving one if snorted.

I snorted Klonopin once to see what the hype was about.. It cleared my sinuses and felt like snorting menthol... It is way better to take sublingually or just eat it. Their oral BA is so high there's no point in any other ROA. Why mess with perfection?

Ive just heard so many differing view points and things like "xanax isnt water soluble so theres no point in snorting it" and things like that, so i was wondering if there was anything else that would absorb the xanax in the nose aside from the nasal membranes. and someone on some post was talking about lipid solubility. I like snorting my kps, dissolving my ativans under my tongue and eatin my xanax unless its the bars then i may snort.

I was under the impression that you could not inject benzo pills. not even diazapam. I thought they all had poor water solubility. and thank you for not closing the thread.

Try it is the only real reply, you will get. I don't like snorting at all, especially not benzos.

(off topic) out of curiosity whats your poison?

i know for a fact that 2 years ago before i learned about the low solubility of benzos, when i snorted xanax or klonopin (like ice in my nozzies) made by Mylan Pharmaceuticals there was no doubt that it came on faster. I'd just eat them shits if i were u, empty stomach......but yes my friends believe so too

so snorting xanax does give you a kinda euphoric rush?

A rush snorting benzos? Perhaps we define "rush" a little differently?

 

[HT harm redux]

euphoria maybe?

 

[HT harm redux]

I didnt even know you could IV diazapam pills

 

[HT harm redux]

so what kind of feeling does snorting a xanax give you? besides a nasty taste i hear. Ive insufflated klonapins before and it was minty and like someone above said, it cleared my sinuses. but i didnt get a good feeling. what kind of feeling does xanax give when snorted?

Just try it yourself, your going to get all the same answers from the people who say why you shouldn't. I don't think there is any point in it. I never snort benzodiazepines. The oral bioavailability is high enough. If I use it nasally I loss a decent amount of it.

You don't get a "rush" from snorting benzodiazepines. It just kicks in quicker. I'd never put "euphoria" and "benzodiazepines" in one sentence.

And yes, Diazepam comes in ampules readily available for IV. So does Lorazepam. Its just used to kick in quicker. Diazepam and Lorazepam are slightly water soluble. Midazolam is completely water soluble and comes in IV formulation.

Snorting Benzos is pointless... At least as far as Klonopin, Xanax, Ativan, & Valium are concerned (I don't know much at all about much less common Benzos). They can't be absorbed through your nasal cavities, so they just end up taking a long route to your digestive system. So, yes, people DO feel effects from snorting Benzos, but the effects they feel are at best as strong as the effects they'd feel from simply swallowing the pills, & at best the amount of time it takes for the Benzos to start taking effect is just the same as if you'd swallowed them.
Honestly, I haven't known anybody, ever, who's snorted Benzos & thought that it produced any sort of effects that were stronger than or superior to the effects of swallowing them.

How can one get prescribed these ampules? I have really bad anxiety, agoraphobia, and clinical paranoia. how could i go about getting these ampules?

They are only used in hospitals and less commonly prescribed for epileptics when they are suffering a seizure. lol, you aren't going to get them for anxiety.

 

[HT harm redux]

Damn. Whats the best anxiety medicine in your opinion. Im on 2mg of xanax right now. is there something better? hes thinking maybe switching me to ativan

Docs are exceedingly cautious about prescribing benzos as it is, in my experience. I agree - there's almost no chance of getting prescribed benzo ampules.

On a side note, when I was on the needle a few years back, I did try injecting Ativan, and it seemed to work. Although it may have just been illusory, as I was mixing it up with heroin and injecting them together (please don't try this, it's a terrible idea, and I would never have done it had I been in a good state of mind in the first place).

no worries here friend, i have no intentions of going back to the needle. i was on it for quite some time, never did any benzos tho because of the solubility. but my doc doesnt seem to have a problem handing out benzos seeing as how im on bars. I just want a benzo that will keep me calm when i go outside and keep my paranoia at bay.
