Opioids nasal spray decongestant

[smneufell]

Its probably been discussed on here, but I cant find it. Basically, would the use of a nasal spray decongestant such as an oxymetazoline spray decrease the absorption of oc through the nasal passages? From what I think I know these sprays work by restricting the blood vessels in your nose. So if theyre constricted would that decrease absorption? I hate stuffy noses

if your nasal passages are blocked why not use the oxy orally? it's more efficient tha way.

snorting has a slightly higher BA but a much shorter duraation than oral.

without doing some reading on the decongestant you're using i have no idea whether it would restrict the absortion rate. have you done some reading yourself?

decongestants constrict the vessels in the nose and sinuses. it will slow absorption of anything you put up there, but it will get absorbed eventually.

^ah ok, thanks for sharing that, it's something i was unaware about

figured as much. explains the "sucky" night of coke awhile ago 8)
i used to do oxys orally all the time. even urged friends to also because it lasting much longer. but for reason its almost like an "addiction" to put anything up my nose i can (besides my finger). i almost enjoy the burning. for me the burn says its working
did an oc80 recently for the first time and was nicer to everyone at work more than i had ever been. im learning to control my comedown rage.
