Hi Lamdage.
I am having a difficult time with ethics and am concerned with your safety. I won't recommend to you what to do, but I can suggest to you what not to do.
Do not inject it IV. IV drips are necessary to administer these drugs properly. Precision in dosing is critical. Obviously, taking too little won't work. However, taking too much won't work either, even if you remain conscious. There is a narrow therapeutic window that produces results. If you experience unconsciousness or severe dissociation, you've gone too far.
The same rules of dosing apply to intranasal administration as in IV administration. Snorting powder will not deliver the exact amounts necessary to stay in the "zone". My ketamine was prescribed as a liquid to inhale. The concentration was measured with precision. The squirts produced by the spray bottle were also measured with precision as part of the bottle mechanism.
I have no opinion regarding IM injections.
If you want to move forward with your experiment, I think you should find out more about dosing and feel confident in the authenticity of the product. Since NRX-1074 is more potent than ketamine, there are no guidelines to dosing. For the sake of comparison, IV ketamine is drip of 0.5mg/kg delivered over 40 minutes.
Sorry...
