Need more right to the point info on 2 ways of taking methylin (Ritalin)

There are threads on this I think but I can't find a straight answer. Someone i know is prescribed methylin 20 mg 3 times a day. Occasionally uses recreationally. But there's been debate between snorting and parachuting. Which is better? Pros and cons. How long does a parachuting high last compared to snorting. Snort between 80- 140 mg over a 12 hour period or longer. But snorting and making lines is becoming kind of a pain in the a$$. And nostril.Lol.

At any given time, 90%+ of the people viewing the forum aren't registered members... plus even the people who DO view it may not have anything to contribute. This is really bordering on being too basic and something you could easily find through searching but I'll leave it open for a bit to see if it generates much worthwhile discussion.

Also keep in mind its between 6-9am on a Saturday in the continental US where the largest amount of BLers live... in a few hours the activity in here will pickup exponentially.

I think making lines is quick and easy. Being serious though I do find plugging generally takes quite a bit of prep and hassle (only done it with MS contin before), unless you're just sticking the pill up there I think you'll find the same.
Rectal will be faster onset, not sure on the BA off the top of my head but I think you'll find it roughly the same for both. Both of these ROA being higher than oral.

That time is also when most of the ridiculous threads seem to appear (what is the best ROA for Loperamide...) But yeh there are some really good US posters especially in the ADD forum. However for a question like this however don't expect stellar replies. I think if Cane doesn't close this thread now it will get closed very soon. You'll find you will have a lot easier time making friends and getting information on bluelight if you make use of the search function.

^parachuting ≠ plugging.

Parachuting is crushing up a pill and putting it in a bit of paper (tissue, toilet, rolling, whatever) and swallowing it.

Plugging is dissolving the pills in water and injecting it with an oral syringe in your rectum.
 
I think ur referring to plugging which is def not what I'm talking about lol. Parachuting as in crushing the pill and wrapping it in a tiny bit of toilet paper and swallowing. Or if u have capsules, crushing the beads and putting the powder into the capsule. Now sure if it's better than snorting.

Who is Cane and why does he delete threads. I'm really new to this and just couldn't find the exact answers I needed.

Oh ok I saw who Cane was. I'll search around more and see if I can get more answers. Thanks.

Oh sorry I read your post to quickly and thought I saw plugging not parachuting.

That changes things...In that case I would say nasal will be quicker onset and higher BA, parachuting rits will have very little advantage over normal oral consumption due to the pharmacokinet properties of methylphenidate.

EDIT : Btw I'm assuming by the thread title that you are talking about IR formulations of MPH.
 
Since this has been open a while and not generating anything resembling harm reduction discussion, I'm going to close this. If you're just looking for opinions on these two routes, search around - vary your terms (methylphenidate, ritalin, methylin, snorting, insufflating, insufflation, parachuting, bombing etc.) and you should be able to get A LOT of information.
