Poppy Tea Injection Ricks

Im really worried about a friend of mine. He has needle fever and has recently been injecting tea made from poppy plants.
He micron filters it - but there are lots of risks involved with this right? Like impurities, codeine content, not to mention how horrible it must be for his veins. Would appreciate more information on the risks/side effects of this nasty practice so I can talk him out of it - it really is a friend - its sooo not me!!!
 
yeah....bad bad bad.
plant material...bacteria? jesus.
maybe have a look on poppies.org or something, but i would be really worried about your friend.
please do some research to find some things to present to get him to stop? i'll see if i can dig anything up.
 
"And if you are entertaining the notion of injecting poppy pod tea, you can expect anaphylactic shock and pulmonary edema (fluid in the lungs) leading to death or serious injury, probably combined with an abscess at the point of injection"

http://books.google.com.au/books?id...AEwCA#v=onepage&q=injecting poppy tea&f=false

it sounds like your friend is taking some really serious risks to get stoned (or whatever his motivations are). maybe try and get him to seek treatment with bupe or methadone or at least some counselling? some serious shit dude.
 
Awesome! Thanks! I'll show him that tomorrow.
Yeah its not like his habits out of control - its just lately that he's been injecting tea. Usually he just does micron filtered morphine, luckily that source is gone so he just does poppy seed tea (orally) or codeine.

If that is really happening that is just insane. For new to get a good PST buzz I drink about 1.5 liters in total. Try getting 1.5 liters of grape fruit through a vein, would take longer than drinking it for starters.

I really hope that dude is not serious.
 
Wow...just seeing the title of this thread made me cringe. I really hope you can convince him to stop.

Like SpiritFolk said, how is he reducing the tea enough to make it an injectable volume...? Or is it opium he's extracting from the poppies?
 
i can think of a few different ways you could conceivably do this - and yeah, they're all utterly horrifying.
most opium tea preparations i've dealt with are full of strange impurities (oils or plant matter) and seem to grow mould really quickly.
i really hope this guy can get help.
 
So its whole poppy plants that he is boiling up and then reducing to dried matter, then adding 3ml of water to then inject after micron filtering.

He talked to the local needle exchange and apparently they said it was fine, which is terrible advice!!!
 
terrible advice!!!
indeed! shit, he'd be better off shooting pills - and that's not to be recommended either.
i've reduced opium to a tar like consistency (not tea, but a canvas bag that was covered in sap) and that shit is rough enough on my stomach when i take it orally, but i'd never even think about eating it.
it's a worry for a needle exchange to give advice like that, if in fact they did. about the worst advice you could give someone, really.
 
Well in theory, a micron filter should remove any bacteria, plant matter, oils, etc, assuming he's using the right size.

I'm baffled that he's actually managing to boil it down then re-dissolve it into a workable shot, that's some serious dedication.
 
Man must take him a while to get rid of all that liquid, you can't boil it unless you don't care about the opiods.
This guy must spend a LOT of time doing this.

First thing that went through my head when I saw this thread 'Jesus' repeated over and over and over.
I mean, he must really love the needle, bad habbit to get into, hope he fixes himself up.
 
man wtff!!!!

one would think to boil it down to dry stuff actuallly kills the potency of it???

i have to ask, Does he actually get high off this method? (i'm not asking cuz i'm curious about doing it, I'm just asking becuause i'm really curious lol)

I mean, whats wrong with just drinking it? PST's high actually pretty quick, as soon as I drink the tea I feel it almost instantly etc.
 
i don't think heat damages the desirable alkaloids that much. i have evaporated opium goop down with a crock pot and boiled infusions before, and i've seen teks that seem to get away with it. you may lose some potency due to heat, but it's not like psilocybin or something. its nothing noticeable.

i've made tea with whole plants before...nothing to write home about. shooting an extract of that is so reckless.
it's less likely to be worth the risk than if he's using pods, because the concentration of opiate alkaloids is really low in the rest of the plant.

all the same - without a shitload of knowledge, skill and the right chemicals etc, there is no way this is safe - there is so much more than just active + binder in a poppy plant. maybe if he really really knew his shit, but it's not like you can whip up something suitable for injection with plant matter water, a kitchen stove and some filters.
i shudder to think of the histamine reaction he must get 8o
 
Oh my god! Opiate users engaging in unsanitary practices?8( Who would have thunk it?

No, there is not any way to safely inject anything made from poppy seeds. Poppyseedtea (PST) is NEVER used for IV. Poppy [/i]pods[/i] are used when people are IVing- you can reduce the mixture, remove some unnecessary alkiloids & particulate matter with less destruction of the morphine.

I'm not saying that you do this instead (as it's not harm reduction- banging plating matter rarely involves HR), but poppy-pod tea can be worked-into a IV-able solution (some filthy mixture of 30+ opiates, over 50% should never be IV'd)- but it takes about 3-12 hours to make and I doubt the knowledge exists outside NZ (different method to Polish Heroin)- stop trying to IV things that should never be IV'd. Fuck sake- ANYTHING that contains codeine must NEVER be injected.

I know a whole bunch of people who have shot up PST in various methods (needle-straight in a glasss, boil down a dose, better evap conditions, various additional purification steps etc) and no one has had a good time. I mean, a couple got pretty high- but all of them had severe histamines side effects.

Don't inject anything from a plant- you're better off banging street heroin (as micron filtering is highly effective), unless you like in some crazy remote region like NZ, Western Australlia, Poland or Russia just don't fucking do it. Almost makes me angry that I have the education and materials to convert poppies into IV solution (I plug it= works v. well, plus the asshole is gods micronfilter) and yet people in country where opiate are so much commonier you have dumb-kids pulling shit like this. GO GET SOME HYDROMORPHIONE DICK! IT ISN'T EVEN PRESCRIBED WHERE I LIVE! Don't bang some POPPY!?!.

God, you kids. I live in a fucking backwater- you think I'd know how to turn opium pods into an IV solution if I could just get junk of some street stranger? And you both seem very young, too young to be fucking round with opiates. Your youth is for psychedelics and uppers- opiates are drugs for once the magic has run out.

Dude, read the fucking thread. The OP is not the one injecting it, its a friend. Also, he is boiling the mixture down from pods (which he says in a later post). So you can cut the holier than thou shit because the OP's friend is just as reckless as you are by banging poppies.
 
Great scott! What the hell is going through your friend's mind to actually consider doing this? For obvious reasons, this practice is ridiculous. Besides, drinking it leaves a longer duration - think of the benefits of just drinking it rather than IV'ing it.
EDIT: I agree with the above post, lay off him; it's his friend that's doing it, he's just taking concern for his friend's welfare.
 
man wtff!!!!

Doesn't kill the potency too much. Could evaporate a good bit of the water off without having any adverse effect on potency.

Massive cringe when I read the title of this thread also. That's one of the worst things you could inject. Everyone else has already mentioned the dangers though 8(
