Everyone is going to tell you that because it is not water soluble it will not work to snort it. I do not believe that is correct. If that were true then there?s no reason sublingual admin would work.
You have approx 5 liters of blood. You want to absorb approx 2 mg of alprazolam. So as long as Xanax has soluabikity of .4mg/l or more, you will absorb it. And this does not Consider that there are lipids in your blood for it to absorb into.
It takes about 1 minute for all of that blood to circulate.
However, the oral bioavailability is great and absorption is extremely quick so snorting does not present any tangible benefit.
I started by snorting Xanax and did in fact end up physically addicted from doing so. However, I haven?t snorted Xanax in years because there?s no benefit to doing so. And I am physically dependent on it so I take some 4x a day.
Maybe someone with medical training can tell me if there?s a flaw in my logic.
TLDR don?t snort it. It?s not worth it but NOT because of the water solubility of Xanax
