I live in the UK and ever since I started taking H I've always smoked it.

I have an oxy habit of around 100mg a day so its sent my tolerance for gear through the roof and I find it extremely hard to catch a nod from smoking H nowadays I have to smoke loads to feel anything.

I want to know if i can get high from snorting it and would it be a more effective ROA for me? Would i feel it more than smoking?

IV is ruled out for me however i might try plugging if i would get more bang for my buck that way.

Tolerance sucks!!
 
Hi mate, I'm in the UK so I'm familiar with the gear you get. Although I've heard that you can snort UK gear, I've never tried it myself and I wouldn't recommend it because our gear is diamorphine base, which is insoluble in water. For a drug to be effective intranasally it has to be soluble in water. Therefore, UK gear is much more effective if smoked.

tl;dr don't snort it, smoke it.
 
^ that's what i've heard as well, though it seems to vary place to place.

If you have access to IV supplies and are willing to go the effort, you can convert it to a salt through the same method by which IV preps take place (ie. heating with citrate), then just letting it dry out to powder.
 
Not sure, but I think boiling off a solution of heroin would degrade a lot of it. At least some say overheating a shot can destroy some.

Heroin cooks use either ether/absolute ethanol with the right amount of HCl(Burma) or acetone with HCl(Afghanistan) to make the salt. Doubt most heroin enthusiast have the skills and patience to crystallize H base. Not sure how the ascorbate, acetate or citrate would crystallize.

I've heard that #2 heroin can be snorted. Drugs don't need to be water soluble to cross mucus membranes. I know benzos can. Crack can't, but a few claimed H base can. Haven't tried H base to compare though.

There is something called an nasal atomization device. Basically a syringe with a spray nozzle instead of a needle. Never heard of it being used. Probably would be great for drug solutions.

Also there's another thing I can't recommend.
