I imagine sniffing + tums wouldn't be any better than just sniffing


anyone know how this works? or have experiences yourself with this?

Correct. Adderall isn't that great sniffed anyway. If I were you I would eat 2-3 tums and just swallow them. Taking an antacid with amphetamines isn't different in a mind blowing way, but for me personally, I see a difference, which says a lot
 
It's not. You get a solid 80% through oral administration, so even if it were a tad higher you're just splitting hairs. Compounded by the fact that most of what composes a pill of adderall is filler which is probably gonna going to block absorption of the active ingredient (significantly but not completely) which in turn will lead to you swallowing a portion of the drug. This kind of renders the argument over the possible 20% bioavailability difference inapplicable. Also swallowing the pills whole combined with the antacid might negate the difference in bioavailability, maybe not in strength, but certainly in duration of effect. I, unfortunately don't know what the oral BA of d-amphetamine is so I can't really complete this answer, but this is the best I got

oral BA of amphetamine is about 20-30% not 80%. taking antacids will both increase absorbtion and duration. snorted amphetamine absorbtion is about 70%, but remember with adderall there's a lot of fillers that get in the way, plus it has a shorter duration and harsher comedown.

i say take it oral with an antacid, thats how i do it. ;)
 
I want your source. Because what you have just said is blatantly incorrect. I'm not trying to be a douche but everything in that post is inaccurate. I'll add some simple logic to this one just to shake things up a little. You're saying that I will get 3 times as high from snorting amphetamine than I would from eating it?
 
Oral bioavailabilty is alot higher than 20-30%. Antacids do more than simply aid in absorbtion, to quote a nursing handbook I had laying around- Increases renal (kidney) recycling, monitor for increased amphetamine affect.
 
Alkaline pH keeps amphetamine in your bloodstream longer. Acid pH causes it to clear from your body quicker. Side bar to all this is about 30% is excreted in the urine unchanged. Recovering drugs from your urine might be on your chemistry instructors approved list of semester projects. Place an ad at your school for volunteers and you may never have to pay for your script again.
 
Just swallow them

Snorting really isnt that great and seems to make the comedown come on much harsher.

Do yourself a favor.
 
30mg would be enough to get you a smooth buzz if you have no tolerance but I still say eat em.

If not take 2 wait about 30 min then rack the 3rd.

Good luck
 
That's an impossible question to answer. The range of dosages for adderall and all amphetamines are huge, both medically and recreationally. People with a high tolerance could take several times what you take to get high, there isn't a great reference point to use for this. I said it already, but you should just eat them. The only advantage to snorting adderall is if you get really excited about snorting things in general, and we already determined here that the bioavailability difference is negligible.

actually its true...

Oral 20-25%; nasal 75%; rectal 95–99%; intravenous 100%

from wikipedia/amphetamine

this is what wikipedia lists as amphetamine's bioavailability for different method of absorbtion. so you would get 3 times as high by snorting than oral. just remember that adderall pills have fillers in then that can get in the way of absorbtion if snorted.

so 10mg sniffed would be like 30mg oral?
