Outside the box delivery system

[GigaGrew]

my friends, im using nicorette nasal spray to help me fight the evil weed (tobacco). I have discovered that the nicotene is supposedly suspended in a solvent....does anyone know if this solvent can work with trichs?I think the solvent is: phosphate buffered saline
im hoping I would be able to open one of my sprays and pour in some trichs. what a perfect stealth delivery system if it works! thc direct to the bloodsteam through the nasal mucus membrane.
anyone know if that is the used solvent and if its any use for us?

I would think that since it is a water based solvent it would not work with THC/CBN which requires alcohol or a fat-based medium to extract those compunds.

It would work as a suspension medium, but I don't know if you would want whole trichomes up your nose or in your respiratory system.

maybe I should just wait till a busines in a legal country comes up with a bespoke thc nasal or oral spray.sigh, these venture people are always so slow to take advantage of emerging markets...I would love a spray delivery system =D

I really like the idea as well, I'm just not sure how one would go about implementing it well enough without any side effects. I sure as hell don't want to be putting anything alcohol or fat-based up my nose. What I think would need to be done is to extract the THC/CBN compounds, probably using alcohol, and get them into some form, preferably powder, where the compounds could be completely dissolved in a saline solution and yet remain stable enough to safely deliver the medication to the nose without negatively impacting the respiratory system. That's all! Even if that were possible, I'd be concerned with shelf life unless the end user recieves the compounds in powder form and mixes it themselves.

I reckon in layman's terms, the trichs need to be mashed into particles small enough to pass into the bloodstream, I think the same suspension could be used if this were the case.

I'm aware of an oral mouth spray...

Here's a medical link to a company based in the UK, this all dates back when labour where last in goverment & ol Gordan Brown granted the license permit for the company to do this in the UK for a lot of £££ Savitex: Cannabis mouth spray for MS that relieves pain gets go-ahead | Mail Online


The only other methods i can think of are extracted oils or even tinctures

Tinctures - How to Extract the Essence of Cannabis - Tutorial

Glycerine-based Tincture

Cannabis Tinctures - Marijuana in Liquid Form


Theirs quite a few links on the forums TBH... just type in tincture into the search function of the forums located under Forum tag top left hand corner

Enjoy

Re: outside the box delivery system.

yes a tincture is the key, but its how best to do it. could we saturate some trichs with ethanol, allow it to dissolve, then pour the ethanol into a bottle to evaporate, whilst replacing the lost vapour with water, would this work? if not what would be a safe concentration lto squirt up ones noes

Re: outside the box delivery system.

How about a glycerine tincture mixed with PEG then used in an ultrasonic vaporizer with a nasal adaptor?

or use the mixture in a regular e-cig stuck up the nose?

That visual made me chuckle.
