SC or IM injection for codeine?

[renton]

SWIM read that it's a big no no to IV codeine as it causes nasty problems like death :(. But SWIM has read allot that codeine can be given by skin poping SC or into the muscle IM. Is there much gained by doing this? SWIM assumes there are some risks in doing it that way of course, but there is in anything. Just taking it orally works ofcourse but you would need to take allot to get a good effect. Any experience with something like this would be appreciated.

it comes on a little faster but the side effects and allergic reactions like severe itching are much greater. it is more dangerous in that the sideeffects are greater and in certain people it could be dangerous and in other people a big itchy pain in the ass. it must be very rare that codeine would be administered in such a way in hospitals, if ever I guess. codeine is best taken orally. if you don't have pure codeine amps there is no reason to even thinking about skin popping or muscleing codeine.

don't do it, the risks and discomfort would by far outweight the potential gains. you would feel better taking a couple percocets instead.

in my opinion, injecting is a very bad thing to get into because it makes one try things that are risky, (eg. how about i try shooting xxxxx?"

BTW codiene IV can trigger a chain of events ending in death given the wrong circumstances, please just stick to oral use, 'chromic's cold water extraction' is easy as pie. don't kill youself on acetaminophen, this shit is no joke, learn what pharmacology means and the pharmacology of all the drugs you use, as well as contrainidcations and long term effects
