I recently obtained a vial of morphine sulfate 1000mg (1gram)/20 mL. This breaks down to 50 mg/mL and is produced by Hospira. I would love to try this intravenously but do not want to do anything rash and without advice, as I know this is highly concentrated. Do I dilute it first? What do I dilute it with and whats the proportions? Any help would be appreciated.
I am going to right verbatim how the bottle reads. "Not for intrathecal or epidural use. Caution: for dilution only. Not for direct injection"
Also, my background is moderate opiate tolerance. I do about 75 to 100 mg of oxycodone per day through insufflation. I have only injected oxycodone three times, with the highest amount being 75 mg, and I felt fine (even thought about doing more but did not).
Thanks for reading. My thoughts are either inject 0.5 mL undiluted, or dilute with normal saline or sterile water, both of which I can get my hands on.
