How much citric? - the citric / heroin reaction

A short film explaining the reaction that takes place when an acid is added to water in order to dissolve brown heroin. Essential viewing for everyone who injects heroin, and those who work with them. Now with subtitles, so you can watch it on silent.

    This is useful info for those who need it. Much as I personally have a horror of addictive drugs, it's my belief that the war on drugs has been long lost. Addiction should be treated as a social problem, not a criminal one. After all, the tobacco and liquor industries are controlled, so that the user is protected (I don't use those products either). I worked in the Liquor industry in my youth, and the guy from customs and excise was there at least 3 times a week. The same protection should be offered to addicts. I'm not saying one should be able to buy dangerous drugs at the local supermarket, but they should be available to those who take them in as safe a condition as possible and at a reasonable price. I doubt there's a perfect solution, but we could do a lot better than we are at present.

    Most heroin available in the UK and Europe comes in the freebase form. This makes it very good for smoking, but also makes it incredibly insoluble in water. The citric acid is added to change the heroin from Diacetylmorphine freebase to diacetylmorphine citrate - a salt form, which is then water soluble and suitable for IV usage.

  • @adamfletcher3975

    @adamfletcher3975

    Freebase is Freebase cocaine (crack). Different things. Citric is added because heroin is an alkaloid and although water soluble will not effectively enter the blood stream IV unless an acid component is used. You can smoke brown heroin as is because it has a lower boiling point than water so will not just burn up when heat is applied. Purer, white heroin is harder to smoke and will probably burn when heated and so is more often injected or snorted. There is no Freebase solution in regards to heroin though. Freebase cocaine is freeing the base coke of the product. Essentially washing out the impurities and hardening the solution into a smoke able rock.

    According to this video, a 10 'British Pound Sterling' bag of heroin contains 3 x as much pure heroin as your average street bag. The average amount of powder in a bag is somewhere around 100mg's, but it's purity is only about 30%, or 30mg's. 30mg's of pure heroin is actually a good dose, and even enough to result in overdose for people with a reduced tolerance. The amount of pure heroin in a bag can be as little as 5mg's, or as high 50mg. Your average, seasoned vet will inject 75 to 150mg's of pure heroin, or 300mg's of powder (100mg heroin + 200mg cut).

    It's weird in the United States you don't have to add citric to the heroine. The first time I was in England strung out on heroin on tour with my band. I scored some heroin for the first time. I took it to where I was staying and tried to hook it up and it wouldn't break down. So I thought I got ripped off and threw the stuff away in the garbage can where I was Stan and went to go out and try to find some more stuff that was real. I came across this musician that I know who lives in the area. He took me to the same exact place that I got the heroin from the first time. We go back to his apartment and start cooking it up. And it was the same thing it wasn't breaking down. Then my friend asked me if I needed any citric. I totally didn't know what he was talking about. But then he explained to me what you have to do to the heroin in the United Kingdom and and Europe. So a lot of American junkies who watch this video.

    @@joet81 you used it with the fentanyl patches? You talking about the transdermal? I used to just take those and squeeze the gel that's in them into a spoon on ADD cold water and they would breakdown fine. After being on tour and England when I was a junkie and found out about having to use citric to break down the heroin. In New York and Washington DC once in awhile I would get this stuff and it would never break down. The people who would snort dope. They would talk about how good this shit was. But if you were a shooter. The quinine or chloroquine which is basically the same as quinine at is the same stuff that is curing covid. That is used for cut and that would be the only thing that would break down. And what would be left in this would be these little brown crumbs that wouldn't break down at all. So after learning about citric. When I got that kind of dope all's I need to basically use was some lime or lemon juice. Cuz also I found out that when you don't have that trick you can use lemon juice or lime and it would work just as well. I had this friend that would shoot cocaine. When he couldn't find cocaine to make a speedball with his heroine. You could always find crack cocaine. He would always use vinegar which is acidic acid one of the processes extracting the alkaloids in the process of making heroin. Back here what use vinegar to break down the baking soda that was into the crack cocaine. Then the second time I was in England on tour with my band. I got high with this one dude and he didn't use the citric because when you did use the citric it was a painful shot. Even if you hit a vein. It still Burns for like a minute. So she would use vinegar instead of citric to break down the heroin that was gas in the United Kingdom and in Europe. Basically all the heroin got you have to use citric is the stuff that comes from Afghanistan. And basically most of the heroine in the West Coast which is black car heroin. Well actually not anymore what they have now it's still black car. That basically it's just a morphine codeine base. When people shoot it now they experienced that feeling of pins and needles. They stink nowadays that if they don't feel that pins and needles that's adults not really that good. But when you are feeling that pins and needles feeling that's because the certain alkaloid hasn't been cooked out which it probably means that it's just a morphine codeine base. It still has several more processes to go through to actually become heroin. Go watch KZread video called heroin holiday in the Czech Republic. Watch with those guys do. So all that right now that's in the west coast is coming from Mexico. The stuff on the East Coast. There's about 15% coming from Afghanistan which is basically the same stuff that the United Kingdom and Europe get. But there is one more process done so basically you don't have to use the citric to break it down. Then the other 85% of heroin that came into the East Coast was coming from El Salvador and surrounding countries. It was weird being a jockey in a band and touring the world sampling all the difference types of heroin. Nowadays there's really nothing good anywhere. I'm here in Washington State where in the 90s the car was really good but still realistic only at about 10%. Then you would go to the East Coast and the worst stuff that you would get would be 75% pure. When I lived on the east coast and would travel back home to Washington State and bring dope from Washington DC or New York. I couldn't share it with anybody because they would basically overdose. The difference between the coast back then was crazy. But now really the dope on the west coast like I said it's basically just a morphine codeine t a r baase. It is at about 5%. And the best thing you're going to get on the East Coast now there's basically maybe 10 for 15% at the best. Oh yeah and Philadelphia always had the best anywhere. But all these people are dying an adult is nothing like it was when I was an active junky in the early and mid 90s. Like once in awhile I'll fuck around and everybody talks about how awesome and strong it is going to cost more money. But like I said here on the West Coast this crap and it's not even real heroine the crazy thing the job I have now is actually testing the different Purity levels of that heroin that cops seized in drug bust. They have really no idea of my junkie past.. I I get to test and research every type of drug. I get to grow psilocybin mushrooms that are being tested and used for mental health research. It's like a dream job for an ex drug addict. Even though now for many years I can keep a control on things and Sample every once in awhile. I've had this job for 6 years now and I don't ever want to lose it. Most Eric's would be in heaven to have my job and get to do all the things I get to do in the name of research with drugs.

    Question: Once the heroin is de-clumped and fully dissolved by the citric, will it re-clump if the citric is then neutralized by a mild base? That way you would be injecting heroin and a salt solution mixture rather than heroin in an acidic solvent.

    No. You would have to be very basic, at which point you would instantly burn your blood vessels and possibly risk other serious health effects. The entire point of adding citric acid is to form a citrate salt of the freebase, to make it water soluble so that it dissolves. Stick with the instructions in the video and you will be far better off.

    If the diacetyl morphine is free base, it isn't likely to dissolve at all. Most street forms are the sulfate salt. Since the sulfate anion is diprotic, it can theoretically dissolve two equivalents of a base. In practice, this is usually extended to more basic which is why it won't dissolve easily. Undissolved product can cause emboli and will greatly delay the intended effect. To maximize the effect, some use a bit of sulfuric acid before filtering the solution through a tuft of cotton. Sulfate is a strong acid in the first proton donation, the second is quite a bit more acidic than the first proton donation of citric acid at room temperature. Using citric acid is far safer than adding sulfuric acid, especially for recreational use. The Krebs Cycle is the basis for energy generation in the body, it is also called the citric acid cycle. The buffering effect of the blood is well suited to metabolism of this acid, not so much with sulfate. And citric acid inhibits clotting, far better than sclerosing the lumen of the chosen vein.

    hi, yes, it's the same preparation protocol for rectal administration... it's just the reason to use as little acid as possible is to minimise damage to the delicate lining of the rectum. Definite risks of ulceration and infection with repeated rectal use. We don't really know if these are worse than injecting, they're probably not. but the balance will depend on the risk of blood borne viruses if injecting. Bioavailability ranges from awesome equivalent to injecting to 'I can't believe I listened to you, that was a total waste of drugs' ;-) ...I think that being constipated can mean that not all the drug ends up in the blood stream, but there can also be differences between individuals in circulation, and absorption. certainly if you have drugs in a syringe, and can't find a vein, and can remove the needle, then it's a safer option than 'digging' for a vein, and better in terms of avoidance of withdrawals than throwing away the drug.

Now there's one little part I may be able to slightly teach you: The area of most effect for rectal administration of substances tends to be the anal columns which is sort of a hard spot to gauge when going for this sort of thing and if you go too deep then yes being constipated will effect it but, if you manage to get it in that specific spot, there should be no fecal matter in the way at all. Of course it'd be ideal to have passed before doing this or to use an enema or something but, if done correctly, then fecal matter should not effect it!! Thank you guys for responding so promptly. Now, a follow-up question or two: Would this same reaction happen without heat being applied? The video states to speed up the reaction so maybe that'd a redundant question. How about intranasal use? is it effective at all without this process happening? Is there a simular process that can be done to improve bioavailability with this method of consumption? And finally : does it matter what citric acid is used? Once upon a time I ended up ordering a kilogram of citric acid from a wholesale food company by mistake... I used this multiple times and if felt.. off compared to the sachets. Thank you guys so much again, keep on reducing harm! hope

I think it's likely that without heat, some of the heroin might remain undissolved, and/or need more acid to get it to dissolve. Intranasal definitely works, especially if you have no tolerance. Bioavailability can be increased by ensuring a fine powder, and snorting high into the nasal cavity (although it's not a great taste). ...food vs pharmaceutical citric don't think is actually any different: it's a highly antibacterial medium, so we wouldn't expect food grade to lead to extra harm.

Like the name of the street and country and zip code and building number and all that.... and is there like any armed security at this lab or anything like that...? Or even the police always there ?? And do the doors be locked all day long 24/7 ? OR could anyone just open the doors and come inside? Do you need a key card to go thru certain doors at all? And like also how are you EXACTLY storing that heroin? Is it kept under lock and key? And if so then where would that key be located at? But if not then where is it exactly stored? Is it in a well regulated temperature area that’s not all humid that could possibly ruin the product...I mean the HEROIN...? And also I’m guessing that there most likely a bunch of other drugs being stored inside this lab as well, so what would those drugs be? And where could I borrow one of those nice white lab coats you got on there ? Sorry if I’m asking a ton of questions, I’m just naturally a VERY VERY curious person... that’s all. I just enjoy learning about as much as I possibly can. Even like learning about blue-prints... so speaking of blue-prints, ummm, where exactly would I be able to find them for this exact lab? Cause I might want to build a lab just like that one day, so like I’d really like to use your lab as maybe a guide or something like that. And I know that you didn’t waist that shot even tho you put a ton of acid in it, we all know you just went into the cabinet and grabbed more heroin inside with the acid so that it would level itself all out and would have a bunch more of the liquid to do shots for the rest of the day! Plus you never gotta worry about being dope sick for one since you work there! And two I already KNOW that you be NEVER EVER be calling off work and be missing ANY DAYS AT ALL!!! And I bet you even work overtime too everyday and that you even come in on your off days too and do more “work”. Seeee I know your game! But back to a couple questions I have, is there any cameras in or around this labs? If their is then what exactly are they able to see? Is the storage cabinet with all those fine samples that you have in their under video surveillance 24/7 too? I guess it doesn’t matter tho cause it’s still COVID season so everyone’s wearing a mask 24/7 anyways! And last question, is your lab hiring as well? I’m looking for a position in such a fine establishment that you are working at there! I don’t even care how much your paying, I still want a job. Even if it’s below minimum wage of $12 per hour right now! But if your offering to pay me MORE then that $12 an hour wage then I 1000% accept it for sure !!! So as soon as you can get all those details for I’d appreciate that very much! I was asking most of the questions for my friend tho......and myself as well! I mean....like....kinda ....myself. Well yeah mostly myself... alright I was asking for myself ! Damn... you didn’t have to go and squeeze it out of me like that! Sheesh!

    Hi, glad you liked the video/what we do - I'm afraid we don't have a video of vitC: you're exactly right it takes more powder to get the same effect, but it works in the same way. It's probably safer, because there's a greater margin for error, and it's easier to add more slowly.

    I was reading that it's common to do this in Europe but we never needed to do this in the US even with brown or white powdered heroin. It always seemed to dissolve quickly enough or if it was black tar, you would have to cook it or stir it for a while. Heroin, regardless of grade, is generally described as water-soluble in the US and honestly, I always cook it anyway. I've been clean five years now but I'm curious as to why it's different in Europe.

Until then it's a SOLUTION, come on shes a chemist she should know this ! Back to my point, I'd she had experience she could of made that shot in 15 secs,no joke, and most likely w/out the citric, I can't say for sure but I've got dope that looks nearly identical to sample in vid and I just need to add water and heat then mix (which Seth doesn't even attempt I'm guessing she didn't even try mixing!)and it dissolves in secs enough to make a shot.

    Those fi al numbers need adjustment. 1. First sample pulled had correct percentages 2. Sample was from a reduced starting volume as 1st sample was romoved which had then a very large volume of citric added . This causes the citric to target to be very skewed

    hi, good spot… it’s ok: the experiment was done correctly, but we only had one camera so did two run throughs to create the footage to show how it was done. we didn’t expect youtube to start showing the film to everyone with an interest in science!

    They make it themselves most likely, or buy it illegally from China like every other Canadian and English lab (america is a bit different they really get everything from everywhere there isn't a main supplier, it's probably why america is so fucked.)

    It's a good thing that you can't find a vein. If you've been sniffing fine, but once you get that first plunge you basically never go back. I'm on subs now but was on h for about 2 years. Most scummy n scetchy 2 years of my life

    fantastic video guys. In Australia we have been used to white no. 4 heroin (from the golden triangle) however over the last 5 years brown heroin that has started appearing. It's good to have information like this available as i have unfortunately been on the wrong end of a shot with too much citric and know it is not pleasant. unfortunately it is quite difficult to obtain citric acid from exchanges & chemists here, resulting in many people using either lemon or vinegar. thanks.
