Is heroin more or less effective on an empty stomach?

unless you're consuming it orally, which you probably won;t be, it won't matter. oral heroin has such as low bio-availability it's not an efficient way to use compared to snorting, smoking, plugging and IVing.
 
personally prefer to have a full stomach b4 indulging in such activities. just makes ya feel more 'whole', like nothing is missing. as long as your not eating it or something, i would say full stomach is best, but a lot of people dont like do that because it can cause you to get sick easier, but i have a iron stomach so yeah. ; }
 
Snorting heroin on an empty stomach hits you harder than snorting it on a full stomach in my opinion. Not too big of a difference though.
 
^yes, maybe it was placebo but it always seemed that way to me as well. i also noticed that after dosing if i ate it would cut the buzz down noticably.
 
I think it could make a difference, some of what I snort drips into my stomach. I dont know maybe not, but for me it definately hits me harder to snort heroin or OC on an empty stomach. Also when I eat after dosing just like daysonatrain said i definately lose some of my high

Heroin doesn't absorb very well through the stomach, so what drips down isn't really doing to affect your buzz either way, regardless of if your stomach is full.

If you feel more buzzed doing it on an empty stomach, it's probably just an expectation effect.

However I prefer doing it on an empty stomach for the simple reason that it makes eating so enjoyable, everything tastes amazing on it!
 
I was refering to smoking mainly.
When SWIM does it on an empty stomach, he feels more susceptible for a high, easier more dizzy. Last time he almost fainted, but still felt good.
