Hi I am looking to meaure 5 mg of amt to use as an ADHD drug. I have got scaes that measure as low as 1mg but they son't seem to measure this low i.e when I put little bit on, nothing happens and other times it shoots up to 20mg. I believe you need scales as sensitive as 0.0001g, which are really expensive, but I might have to resort to buying these. There is liquid measurement. I could measure 20 mg of amt. Am I right in saying if I put this in 20 ml of water then 5 ml would = 5mg of amt? Also how do I dissolve it in water or another liquid and preserve it for 4 days or longer in that liquid? Could someone tell me the things I would need, I am new to this thanks.

You could also dilute your powder with another powder.
This is probably better in terms of preservation, provided you use a suitable powder.
You should add equal volumes of powder, mix thoroughly for at least 5 minutes, then add another equal volume, etc.
The rest is self-explanatory.

I don't understand. Please give me a step by step way of measuring 5 mg stating what equipment is needed. Do I just take amt in water? For an allergy test I tied putting 5 mg of amt in 750 ml of water, and took a little sip but I realise now it probably didn't dissolve. I may have taken more or less than what I intended. Do I need white vinegar? Please spell it out to me slowly. I am really new to this. Thanks.

Weigh off an amount of AMT (1 gram)
Weigh off an amount of a suitable powder (7 gram; powder A)
Combine 1 gram of AMT with approximately 1 gram of powder A.
Mix thoroughly for 5 to 10 minutes.
Add appr. 2 grams of powder A to the mixture of AMT/powder A.
Mix thoroughly for 5 to 10 minutes.
Add the rest of powder A to the mixture.
Mix thorougly for 5 to 10 minutes.
You need no water or vinegar, just patience and the skills to mix two powders without fucking up your desk...
My first suggestion would be NaCl (ordinary salt), KCl (salt for people on a sodium restricted diet) or vitamine C powder.
If you do it like the example above, you would dilute your powder 8 times.
This means that if you weigh off 40 mg of your mixture, it will contain 5 mg of AMT.
But you need to mix it very, very well since mixing powders requires a lot more effort than mixing with solvents.
Also try to use a powder with a comparable particle size, if you use salt in large crystals your mixture will dissipate; the larger particles (probably NaCl/KCl) will 'float' on the smaller AMT particles.

Ok thanks, I really appreciate it. I've never heard of this before. So I just mix it with a fork on my desk and swallow the powder? If anyone can verify the best powder to use that woud be great. If not I'll give salt a try.
