Black tar heroin in this form must be dissolved into water before it can be snorted.

Black tar heroin often comes in a form that is initially unable to be insufflated ("snorted"). This is due to the sticky consistency of this substance. For this reason, many believe that smoking or injecting is the only valid routes of administration for this form of heroin; however, this is untrue. In fact, tar heroin injection can also be associated with Clostridium botulinum infection.

This is a guide designed to introduce insufflation as a viable routes of administration for a user of black tar heroin.

Materials

• Black tar heroin - This is the dirty, sticky, highly adulterated version of heroin that some users in the western and southern parts of the United States are familiar with. It is unable to be snorted in its processed form, which has a gooey consistency.
• New, non-sterile syringe.
• Water for injection.
• Nasal spray bottle. Optionally, a nasal irrigator for aftercare.

Procedure

1. Pour water for injection into the single-use spoon, along with the heroin.
2. Apply heat until the substance dissolves.
3. Using an insulin needle and 1 mL syringe barrel, suck up the heroin solution into the syringe barrel through the filter, leaving out any large physical impurities. There is usually black gunk left in the spoon, and this should not be allowed to enter the body.
4. Either inject, or pour over the solution to a nasal spray bottle if you are going to take it intranasally.
