QUICK QUESTION

[eight]

And I'm hoping for quick replies...

Alright, I suck with swallowing pills. I don't know, I just can't get 'em down.
Would putting a pill (Concerta) in water and letting it set over night get the pill to disolve? And if so, would the effects of the pill still occur?

you could crush up the pill, then put it in water. that saves a day.

wait this is ritalin, okay, snort it. that'll give you a better experience. just have some warm water in a cup handy. why? because after you've snorted, and it's gonna all the way up, dab your pinky in the cup and tilt your head back. put the pinky up to the nostil you snorted in, and snort the water. this makes sure everything gets sucked up.

Yea, that's what I did last time.
Only I have no clue where the pill crushing thing is now.

But would just letting it disolve in the water work? I don't want to take it now anyways, so the extra time isn't a problem.

Edit: I thought I read somewhere snorting Concerta is bad?
But still, I don't have anything to crush it with.

bro... snorting ANYTHING is bad... it all depends on how fast you want it to kick it... i say just get a large, hard surface... then crush up the pill, and mix it with a warm/hot tea, it will absorb faster... and tea rules

Chew them up its nasty but dont be a pussy,.

Just swallow one at a time. Put one on your tongue, and drink a cup of water. You won't even know you're swallowing it.

Get some hard vitamins and take one every morning, you'll get used to taking pills quite quickly. Take them with water as explained above.

I know from experience Concerta's are a bitch to crush, they may be the same active ingredient in Ritalin (Methylphenidate) but Concerta tablets were designed in a way that makes it much more difficult to abuse by breaking the time release. I remember trying to crush a Concerta tablet in between some paper on concrete using a hammer and all it did was flatten out.

If you leave it in water it has to dissolve eventually.

Do even know what a Concerta pill is?


I just ended up crushing it. The little cork screw thing in my pocket knife worked fairly well. It took a while but, it worked.

And I've just been trying to practice swallowing M&Ms, but I just really suck.
Most of the time they melt before I can get them down.



On another note, since when do you have to be 18 to buy a freakin' lighter? I've never had problems before, but now today they wouldn't sell me one.
