vicks inhalers

well i was just freakin my vicks for tonights roll, i breathed in on it i got some of the chemicals on my lips and stuff. basically my mouth has been numb for like the past 15 minutes i know that the menthol in it is a local anasthetic, kinda cool... anyways

has anyone ever got vicks in their eyes from a seabreeze? i really enjoy those but im always a little worried about that


also, anyone have any info about creating meth from vicks?
read this if you dont believe me:

Interestingly, methamphetamine itself is sometimes illegally produced in America from Vicks nasal inhalers. The following is an excerpt from a Mississippi Supreme Court case, Crosswhite v. State, 732 So.2d 856 (Miss. 1998):

"As [Sheriff] Huffman looked around the kitchen, he noticed approximately fifty empty Vicks Inhaler containers lying on the stove, counter top, and in the garbage can next to the stove ... During trial, Sheriff Huffman testified that the combination of heat and water cause the inert ingredients in the Vicks Inhaler to bond with water. The cotton swabs found within the inhaler are then placed in the liquid mixture. When the water eventually evaporates, a concentrated form of methamphetamine is squeezed from the cotton swabs using pliers. The result of this process is the formation of a narcotic substance commonly referred to as 'kitchen crank,' 'bathtub meth,' or 'stove-top meth.'"

"Grady Downy, a forensic scientist employed by the Mississippi Crime Lab, testified concerning the results reached by the lab ... Methamphetamine was found in both the seized liquid and the cotton swabs. Downy explained that the active ingredient contained in the Vicks Inhaler, l-desoxyephedrine, is a form of methamphetamine. Each inhaler contains fifty milligrams of l-desoxyephedrine combined with other ingredients. He further explained that the amount of l-desoxyephedrine found in the Vicks Inhaler is not changed by the process of boiling the contents in water. Rather, the amount of methamphetamine is simply concentrated when the other ingredients contained in the inhaler evaporate along with the water. The fifty milligrams of l-desoxyephedrine found in each inhaler remains in the cotton swabs and may then be extracted in a condensed form."

Your such a retard, they mean meth is put into vicks inhalers, for portable use, not the stuff inside it can be used to make it. Your theories are getting more, and more ridiculous.

No, you are wrong redraindrop. If you read the excerpts that Bedake posted you would see that when the contents of the Vicks is boiled it leaves concentrated meth.

Don't be such a jerk, especially when you're dead wrong. Here's a link to the court document he quoted; if you read the excerpt that he posted, it clearly explains that Vicks inhalers' active ingredient is a form of methamphetamine.

nice... god i hate morons, you might as well get the hell out of the other psychotrops forums, you know nothing about anything besides, "weed is good" "smoke herb" and "natural is the only way"

i love how im never wrong

The meth in vicks inhalers is the L isomer, the one you want is D, the stuff in the inhalers is next to useless, but it is technically meth. Deoxyephedrine is simply another another name for methamphetamine.

Wow....Just... wow. You are quite defensive of your chemicals. And no im not all about weed, its not the only thing i like to use. I love shrooms, and DXM, so im not "leaving" the psychotropics forum just because you dont like me..

PS: your never right about anything, as ive seen from previous threads and posts you've made. Mabye your brain is a lil too fried.

hehe not my chemicals, i hate meth, i just like to learn about things before i post bullshit like some people

Your just right to know my friend, learning is half the battle. Seriously there is nothing to gain from flamming someone, especially when you are wrong like the man said. It's not constructive and it's a lack of your time.. think about it.. I can understand if your young I usta be the same way just try not to be so ignorant when you do flame please ;) this is just some info I hope you account for.

True, and while one very popular "cookbook" states one can racemize (don't ask!) by means of reflux in HCL, this is nonsense, one would need to remove the amine completely, and replace (randomly) by reductive alkalyzation. How this could be done, I haven't a clue.
