Summary
Nifoxipam is an active metabolite of flunitrazepam with a half-life estimated at 12-24 hours and subjective effects lasting up to 75 hours in some users. It accumulates strongly with daily dosing; users report coordination loss from 1-2mg and blackouts beyond 2-4mg. Volumetric measurement is essentialβdissolve powder in ethanol or propylene glycol for accurate titration. Stability is poorer than many designer benzos with notable degradation at room temperature. Always use a milligram scale accurate to 0.001g, avoid driving for at least 24 hours after use, and employ a sober sitter for doses above 1mg.
