First off, yes, Ive utfse, come up with a few very old threads here and elsewhere, but I do not have a concrete answer to my question, which is:

Is it possible to inject Ambien? If not, is insufflated practical?

The reason I ask is Ive got a few, and I just ate dinner. Will be going to bed in a few, and I remember from the days I had Ambien that they do not work at all on a full stomach (even 20mg/day, which is what I was on). I have the 10mg instant release ones (or rather, not the CR ones).

Are these water soluble enough to inject? I have a 3cc rig. I looked up 'ambien solubility' and only got a vague 'sparingly soluble in water' answer. Anyone have a definite answer, like "322mg/ml @ 70*F"?

Also, are there any paradoxical effects from injecting, mainly insomnia and or any speedy effects? If so, fk it, Ill eat them, because being awake longer is the LAST thing I want.

If IV is not a viable route, any tips on HR on snorting? These things are too small to peel any coating from, I dont really care if they burn or not, just would like to know if they are effective that way. I dont abuse ambien, not looking for a high, just some info that escapes my ability to search for. tia~~
 
I can' t comment on IVing them but I used to insufflate ambien on a fairly regular basis, only because eating them always made me nauseous. It's very effective with a quick onset. The down side is that the duration is a good bit shorter, so you may wake up half way through the night. As for the coating, if you put them in your mouth long enough to saturate them and rub them on the inside of your shirt the coating should come right off.
 
Let me just say that injecting pills is never a good idea, and it is best to use a micron filter if you're going to do it. It is possible to iv ambien, if you rub the pills.on a wet paper towel first to remove the coating, then crush them and dissolve them in at least a ml of water. Some people really enjoy the weird rush that iv ambien provides, though i myself don't think its that great.
If you're looking to use ambien recreatioanlly, snorting them is the safer option and will last longer. I really don't advise shooting them, but if you're going to follow my advice above.
 
I have IV'd the 10's before in a 1cc rig. I'm not sure if all of the pill got into that one shot or not, but I did another 10 about an hour later via IV. It is possible to inject, and snort. To me though they both are COMPLETELY different highs.

The IV route is a weird rushy dream sensation. I remember after I did it I looked at my roommate and he looked like one of the Indian gods like Shiva. He had 8 eyes, 6 arms, and 4 legs. I really don't remember much else after that. I can't remember if it was a euphoric high or just plain weird.

Whenever I snorted the 10's it was basically a "euphoric" benzo buzz. (I fucking hate benzos, and find them dysphoric 90% of the time) But Ambien is a good body buzz. Also this drug is very amnesiac (if thats a word).. You basically forget most of the experience.

Good luck and stay safe!

EDIT

Definately try the snorting before the shooting. If you don't like the insufflated "weird" high you definately won't like the shot.
 
trip report iv: injected one well crushed 10, not de-coated first with 1 cc water. Feels like insta-drunk, tho the room has already stopped moving, I imagine I ill be very tird here in the next 5 minutes. Slight burn going in. Neither good nor bad atm, just "here". I want to close my eyes and go to bed, but at this point can override it... to what end?
 
I'd never inject anything without a micron filter but that's just me....

Otherwise just about anything can be made injectable with the right solvents/preparation, question is is it worth it? Tbh, idk about ambien.
 
I've been wondering myself about the potential for IV zolpidem. I'm reluctant about its safety given that it's an uncommon pill to IV, I don't know anything about its solubility, binders/fillers, or the solubility of those binders and fillers, and the fact that I live with my parents and can't order micron filters. But I might give it a really careful try, now that I see that it's been done and you guys are all still here and breathing.
However, I feel like a better option might just be to do what I did once for the most insane experience of my life. I had been up for three days straight on vyvanse, I hadn't eaten much, and two of the nights that I'd been up all night I had actually stayed up until sunrise while drunk and on benzos. The third night, I had two or three drinks and a 0.1mg clonidine, and I snorted 10mg of zolpidem. Long story short, about 30 seconds after administration, a picture of me hung up on the wall in my room climbed out of the photo and had a conversation with me on my bed, and as I stared into the groove patterns in the wood on my bedside table, the entire room and everything around me faded between being dark(nearly no visible light), and being so bright that I was blinded like I had been staring into the sun.
While I cannot and would not recommend this irresponsible combination that I did on accident, I feel like it's less detrimental to your health than IVing a benzo-like pill without a micron filter so I felt compelled to tell that story hahaha. Obvious Disclaimer: staying up for three days on ADD pills, then getting drunk and snorting ambien probably won't make you hang out with yourself from a two-year old picture or whatever, but in my experience it was FUCKING INSANE and I absolutely loved it/would relive it.
Careful with Ambien. It's the only substance that once I've put in my body, I've had absolutely no control over what happens next.
 
not to send the wrong message--please don't start iving pills, etc.--but i read a thread on here a while ago about iving ambien and thus decided like a moron that i should try it... anyway, i still think iv ambien is kind of awesome in its own way. iving pills is bad for you. iving in general is not a good idea. most people think there are better things to iv than zolpidem. regardless, there is no denying that ambien has a unique rush that is different and in addition to its normal effects when ived, and i happen to like the feeling.
 
thx all for the info. what I didnt get to post was the 2nd part of my trip report: IV'd 15mg more (25mg in all, which is way dumb on my part). I dont remember sweet fuck all after doing the second shot except laying down to sleep. I woke up WIDE AWAKE 2 hours later. Conclusion: not worth it, just eat on an empty stomach, enjoy a full night's rest.

as far as safety, ambien are some of the smallest pills made, and yes, micron filter and all, but in the real world we dont always have those handy. There is simply less crap one can inject due to the pill size. Not saying it's safe, but I didnt pass out before I got the needle out of my arm or anything scary like that, tho amnesia alone scares the hell out of me.

I will not be IVing these again, just not worth it. Still, no idea on solubiity, so I ate what was left in the spoon.
 
sounds crazy, im pretty experienced with ambien. thinking of getting a micron filter and giving it a shot *rimshot*
 
the rush is a bit like coke but after the rush you chill out n can sleep
 
I used to do this years ago, when I had a low zolpidem tolerance and if I took 20mg and smoked weed about 20mins after I got into this almost dissociative state and screens and lights looked like 'hyperreal' and could see shadows, then I just blacked out and now have a permatolerance.....I took 60mg last night and fell asleep like 6hours later....anyways when I quit banging H and doing oxys but still had a needle fixation/was way self-destructive I started snorting zolpidem, generally mixed with coke, the effect was nice at first kind of like chiller coke but then it stopped and snorting ambient burns like a MF...so next I decided to IV them first times I got amazing rushes, but I was shooting every hour or so, tolerance developed so I started shooting it with midazolam.....terrible idea, luckily I stopped a couple weeks into it cause the way my arms/veins felt and the needle track marks were terrible even though I was using .29s as usual and a micron filter...taking more orally and smoking tobacco/weed is much more enjoyable, but if you really need them for insomnia don't abuse them or they'll stop working....lol speaking of the rush like coke I remember I shot coke and zolpidem a couple times and it was crazyyyyyy once I passed out at a friend's couch the other time I remember how much the shot stung in the bathroom, I screamed in pain but then the rush with the bell ringer came and then I don't remember....might pop a couple later when I'm ready to smoke some weed to take a nap...I must admit if you are in a reckless/shooting pills anyways stage that i thought it was fun......havent done it in ages nor I will every again...but I'm an old scared fuck...
 
ive tried it both ways. to be perfectly honest, i hate ambien. i cant tell if 2 pills or 6 are gonna make me blackout. if im going for blackout mode, i'll just drink myself there....
