hi,

I will aquire 1 gram of ketamine. I dont know the purity or cuts since there are no test kitts here.

I am looking for a safe guide for IM that doesnt involve micron filters since u cant get them at w pharmacy.

Also what needle gauge should i use?
 
If your IMng street ket your going to want a micron filer. You have a bigger chance of gettng infections and stuff IMng ket rather then IVing it actually. Ive IMed ket but it was medical ketamine that came in a vial
 
I agree with android; the safest way to use street k intramuscularly is with a .22 or .2 micron filter to remove any organisms that could cause infection. It would also be recommended to at least test it with a fentanyl test strip and at least Morris reagent, if not other reagents as well.
As far as needle gauge, I wouldn't use anything thinner than a 25 gauge for IM. I've used 25 gauge many times without issue. It's not recommend to use the thinner gauge "insulin syringes" for it.
I think the most foolproof site for an IM injection is in the lower portion of the deltoid muscle on the upper arm, where they usually inject vaccines. Watch a few YouTube videos on the technique and it shouldn't be a problem.

Have you considered rectal administration instead? Done properly it also has a high bioavailability (though not as high as IM) and doesn't carry the risks of parenteral injection. A good guide can be found on Reddit by searching "Guide to "Per Rectal" Administration of Opiates". I recommend practicing with a small quantity of cold water first to get a feel for the depth of insertion and the rate of depressing the plunger.

Best of luck, stay safe.
 
There is nothing like IMing the correct amount of ketamine. It might take one or two tries to find the right dose, ( I’m 210 lbs, and I use about 110mg in 1.5ml H2O.
I originally used pharma vials, but they aren’t around anymore ( for me anyways).
Micron filter is definitely the way to go, if u want to live a healthy life. I have used a piece of cotton off a a-tip lately, bc I trusted the source, and I’m so depressed, I take immune suppressants anyway. But bad shit happens. So don’t be like me, unless you are ok with walking into the hospital and telling the doctor exactly what you did, if it starts to feel warm, or raises, or u get a fever, or anything happens that is out of the norm. But iv happens too fast for my taste. IM is the way K was meant to be used , and u probably won’t want to use any other way. There is a fine line, and if u dose too high, u just will wake up an hr later. There is a dosage chart on the web somewhere. Mg/kg body weight. I forget the math tho. look around and you’ll find it. It u can wait till u get a vial or micron filter. ( u can order micron filters off amazon btw) that’s the move. I have had success with dissolving the k in h2o, then IMing into my thigh. Like if I am sitting on the edge of the bed and look down. I see my thighs. Look at the right thigh, find the center, move towards the outer edge A half inch, insert needle. Make sure no blood flows back. Then slowly insert. If it’s painful, you are doing it wrong, or ur k is fucked. At least buy from a reputable source, not some guy outside the bar, ya know.

That's a ton of water. I'm doing 80-130mg of K using .3 to .4ml bacteriostatic water.

I would think watering it down so much would greatly impact the effect of the dose.

I haven't tested but with meth we always wanted the solution to be as thick as possible as the thinner the weaker the rush.

I made the mistake of trying IV the other night and imo I it is far better. The initial rush is great, the high peaks way more. But I do agree it is over much quicker.

Idk if it's just me but IM K after the high wears off leaves me wired, heart feels like it's racing, body feels all wired up. Stacking doses like 2-4 in a night greatly multiplies this and I'm unable to sleep for a while afterwards.

I find with IV it wears off and I don't have that wired feeling and can go to bed fairly easily.

Sadly I can't walk around with track marks so back to IM it is.

After doing any form of injecting I find nasal K to be a total waste of time.

How many sprays do ya get with that amount? Seems like it wouldnt even get out the sprayer that thick.
 
I feel so alone with the way k effects me. Re "Dosing too high you just wake up an hour later"

If i overdose, i go to place of psychological chaos. An abstract, Salvador Dali world where utterly no sense can be made. No memory of anything that came before.

Trying to remember my name usually helps me escape.

Anyway yeah. I wouldnt be IM'ing anything that i didnt have absolute trust of source on. Ive seen dog hair and all sorts of nasty shit in my bags as well, so running without a filter is really dangerous too. Hope OP didnt learn the hard way.
 
i saw a study on this and reverse gravity filter it through cigarette butt is the best way besides a micron, better than cotton.

i’ve also read on this site that if it’s not micron filtered or pharma grade it’s safer to IV it than IM it. just make sure you are sitting already.
