Reduced potency in water?

[Occifer]

Hi all, I'm not sure where to put this question so this looks like as good of a place as any. Quick question: if I pre-make some rigs will leaving the solution in the rig for several hours reduce the potency of heroin?
Thanks :D

No, several hours should be fine, I've done it many times. The only thing you have to worry about is sterility, if you get bacteria in the solution it could multiply, although honestly I don't know how much difference several hours would really make in that regard.

Thank you a bunch for your help! :D

make sure if you prep shots in advance to keep them in a refrigerator or something of the like especially if you've no preservative to prevent bacteria growth. without a preservative, storing them out in the open is more likely to promote the growth of bacteria, contaminating your solution.

For only a few hours should be fine but longer than that e.g. 24 hours or so you'll lose a noticeable amount, it'll convert back t morphine, so not a total loss

Potency will not be an issue but septic shock might be a concern.

Use micron filters and don't leave your solution without an antimicrobial agent and you should be fine.

^It takes a long longer than 24 hrs for it to begin degrading into morphine actually, contrary to popular belief.

Thanks everyone! I'm lazy and I get kinda shaky sometimes if I'm in need so I was going to pre-prep some but I think I'll just stick with one at a time. Not lookin to get sick anytime soon

Since this has been resolved, I'm going to go ahead and close this.
