My buddy who used to be a serious heroin addict has been clean for a little under 5 months now. He called me this morning asking if I could get him anything, and although I insisted that he keep to his program he told me if I couldn't get it for him than he would get it somewhere else. Fast forward a couple hours later and he came over with $60 looking to score. He did a test shot and then did another one and the next thing I know he is on the floor passed out. I monitored his breathing, taking a breath every time he did, and when I realized I was about to pass out on his breathing pattern, I realized it was either call the ambulance or come up with something quick.

I figured if he woke up in the hospital he would be seriously pissed I did that to him, so I grabbed one of my suboxone strips and fixed up a shot. Got my girlfriend to tie up the arm, registered, and shot him up. Now he is breathing normally and I think I'll wake him up in the next 10 minutes or so so he doesn't experience too much discomfort.

I know I should have micron filtered it, but this was a one time thing, and I don't think he will be too pissed that I saved him a couple grand on a hospital visit :)
 
Suboxone is not appropriate for a heroin overdose. This has been previously discussed; and it is not the safe way to combat a heroin overdose.

I am going to close this thread because it is not OD material.
