I'm still in school and this is one of those things that I have seen countless people do.
General intake is a snort of half a ritalin pill when your body is beginning to tire near 12am before your early morning exam or big term paper.
It isn't just ritalin either. I've seen people snort so many wake-ups (an over the counter caffeine pill) that they are too busy zoning to even study.
- kragen 17y agoThis is a bad idea. Snorting (instead of swallowing) the pill won't change how it affects you half an hour out (or further). It will, however, get it into your bloodstream immediately, giving you a quick high, and by hyperbolic discounting, it will make the operant-conditioning association between the pill and the high much, much stronger. Ritalin or amphetamines are much less addictive if you take them in a pill, especially a slow-release pill and/or with some food. And if your reason is to be awake for an all-nighter on a term paper, you don't get any benefit from snorting.
- rms 17y agoAlong the lines of the other person who responded, norting pills is just a stupid drug culture thing. If you want the pill to come on faster, break it into pieces or chew it. The drug is not stronger intranasally, it just comes on faster and it's bad for your mucous membranes.
