Safer use and harm reduction tips
- Avoid frequent redosing to reduce strain on the heart and brain.
- Use clean straws for snorting to prevent nasal damage. Use your own tube/”snorter” as hepatitis C can be transmitted.
- Stay hydrated and eat before use.
- Can be consumed orally to reduce strain on the nasal cavities.
- Mixing with other stimulants causes cardiovascular stress.
- Have a trusted person around and take breaks.
- If chest pain or persistive discomfort, get medical help.
- Carry Antidote (nalaxone) nasal spray, know how to use it and let others know you have it.
Remember to look out for each other, and call 1-1-2 for medical assistance.
