I would like to know how it feels to snort xanax & drink beer, I would most likely pop 2 0.5mg & snort 1mg of xanax & drink a few beers, I've taken xanax before but only oraly & would like to know if snorting it will give a better buzz.
 
Xanax is not soluble in water, so when you snort it you just end up swallowing it all eventually. Bottom line, it's a lot of time and hassle and discomfort for nothing. Just eat it.
 
I got to warn you that for people new to the mix of xanax and beer you don't want to exceed .5 xanax and you want to drink slow (maybe some light beer). Anyway you probably will black out, embarass yourself, get injured, and or get arrested if you take too much. Have fun!
 
^ what he said. ive never actually had xanax but i know that drinking on benzos or ghb is dicy if you arent careful. easy to get way too fucked or even die.

That's not true. Substances don't need to be water soluble to get absorbed in the mucous membranes. There's not much point to snorting Xanax/benzos in general, but it'll get absorbed.

Take care with your alcohol consumption; it's easy to get fucked up & then black out. Or worse.

You lose half the bio-availability when you snort it. It is the most hated question among BLers. It is wasteful. But some people want the nod of the initial onset. The girls I know that snort xanax habitually also use a lot of nose spray as they are always stopped up and want to snort some more.

Alcohol and xanax can lead to blackouts very easily. I usually do not have more than 2 or 3 drinks with 1mg of xanax on board. The last time I drank more than that on xanax, I had to call a few girls up the next day to see what I had said. My call history on my cell phone showed I made booty calls later that night I did not remember making.
 
People make this combo sound like such a big deal, as if no one has self control on the combo. Yea it gets you fucked up quickly but it is usually pretty easy for me to not chug down so much alcohol since i know xanax is in my system.

General rule of thumb if you don't have a tolerance is to drink nice a slowly, and always wait for the effects of the alcohol to hit you before drinking more. Also do not go over 1.5mg with no tolerance.
 
Why not just spike your own drinks, or crush up the pills and bomb them?

I know I used to buy 24 ounce 2/11’s by the box and crush up my favorite benzos and dissolve it in the alcohol...

I would be good just off one can, with my cocaine...
 
xanax has a high oral bioavailability so just pop it or go the sublingual route snorting xanax imo is a waste because like babylon said it is not soluble in water and the nasal bioavailabilty is far less then the oral
 
Don't forget the potential to end up taking more / drinking more than you intended once you're blacked out. From there you're looking at possibly life threatening respiratory depression. Avoid this at all costs.
 
I think the only benefit from snorting Xanax is that it hits you faster. But then you have annoying residue left in your nose, essentially wasting your pills. It can get troublesome if you drink beer with it, I could never control my intake once I got started. One beer shouldn't harm you but it can be hard to stop at one. I never get hangovers but mixing the two made me feel shitty the next morning. Just take one or the other.

Yeah, its lipid solubility that matters when it comes to nasal absorption. Of course being water soluble helps the cause.

What's your source for that? It doesn't sound right. I can't find one right away, but IIRC it's a bit more than ~45%

It used to be on wikipedia before they got all censor crazy about alternate ROA's. I have been on BL on and off for years and as the posters behind me have said, it is a well known fact here and the most hated question on BL. I am sure it is in a megathread. I am not looking it up. It has come up so often that long time BLers know this by heart.
 
last time I did this combo it was at a bar I took a 3 mg bar, and remember drinking red bull vodka... long story short I wake up outside handcuffed being questioned screaming that I wanted my hat back. then it gets fuzzy again I wake in my bed with a bunch of receipts in my pocket for buying a couple hundred dollars worth of drinks. my shirt was ripped from an apparent fight, hence the reason I wanted my hat which had fell off. this was all told to my by friends. the cops apparently let me go. I guess I was screaming at the top of my lungs to the cops "IM A NURSE","YOU CANT ARREST ME" I was jumped by skin heads and not the primary aggressor I was apparently defending myself (I was told, I don't remember) So the police let me go home with my friends and laughed at me. so im told.

Lol i can handle myself with benzos and booze, just wanted to know if snorting the xanax might give me a better buzz

You know you can handle yourself on this combo, but yet you admit you don't even know what the buzz feels like? Something doesn't add up here, view yourself as a bit less invincible, and take at least a second of consideration for advice given from people that do know.

At this point your only remaining question is how do I get high, that we don't allow. You have all the relevant precautions and avoidance that should be taken. Closed. PM any questions.
