Dose - Is Potassium Koh-GHB not as potent?

[saline29]

Was wondering. This dude who I don't know made plenty of sodium Ghb, and found a good measurement that was good. He finally got ahold of some potassium hydroxide and made GHB with that, according to the measurements online (roughly without a scale).

He noticed first off, that it took a lot longer for the GBL smell to dissipate than with making Sodium. Second, he noticed that when he poured it in the pyrex dish, after the water was boiled out, that it didn't immediately harden like the sodium GHB does. It took longer to harden and needed the assistance of the freezer, and swapping it in and out to keep it hard, cause it absorbed moisture way too fast compared to the sodium version.

After it was dry, he weighed it out to roughly 170 grams, and then added the same amount of water in milliliters like he does with GHB.

The stuff tasted like hell. It is a cross between the scrapings of a banana peel at first, and then it tasted as if it would get sweet, but right about then a sharp nasty overbearing salty taste makes it just suck. But mixed with water, it smells less than sodium ghb, which always has smelled like rotting ocean water.

Usually, this dude takes less than 5 milliliters of sodium ghb, and then gets some effects. He switched to potassium, cause at the rate he was doing it, he could tell the salt would make him get a hard heart beat in his neck and a really shitty feeling after weeks of using. At first it was just fine though.

He takes 7.5 milliliters of the Koh-Ghb (potassium) however, mixed the same as the sodium he always has made. It not only takes longer to come on, but he hardly feels it, even at this high of a dose.

Wonder what is going on with him.

Interesting topic, never heardn of koh-ghb before. Much less researched than NaGHB so probably not advisable.

the only thing I can tell u is that by weight KGHB is weaker than NaGHB becuase the molecular weight of K is 39 and na 22.9

SWIM has noticed that kghb takes longer to kick in, and the effects are more gradual and building. Maybe SWIY is simply being impatient because he's used to it kicking in faster. SWIM has noticed that kghb also lasts longer, although it's not as intense. If you take enough, it will work great and last longer than naghb. They are a little different, but not much.

Beware that if you're using huge doses every day (ie addicted) then it won't matter much if you're on Na or K GHB. Too much potassium will cause health problems too - an excess can stop the heart for example (it's used in the lethal injection given to criminals).

The reason people recommend a potassium supplement when taking GHB is not that GHB itself depletes potassium, it's that Na-GHB supplies too much sodium to the body and the most important thing for health is to have the right mix/ratio of Na:K in the body. So switching to K-GHB could cause a person to have the balance skewed too much in favour of potassium, if a person's taking a lot of it. I reckon the best option for heavy users would be to synth GHB with a 2:1 K:Na ratio (by weight) and use that instead.

The moral of this post; don't take too much of either sodium or potassium GHB.
