Discussion SN alternate route of administration experiment

[neurotoxic]

I'm curious about experimenting with alternative routes of administration for sodium nitrite/potassium nitrite. I've only seen a couple posts on here discussing how well SN would work intravenously or rectally, with both suggestions usually resulting in discouragement (which is fair, nobody's done either before possibly for good reason). I'm not a medical professional or anything, but I've also not heard any convincing reasons why one of those two alternatives wouldn't work, so I'm considering trying one or both. Basically the plan is to gather more information, attempt, and document what happens. If anyone has useful information or relevant medical knowledge, It would be very helpful.

Intravenous wouldn't work for most. Mainly because of how difficult it is to intravenously inject, and the pain you'll feel upon injection. Incorrectly injected, you may face severe pain (and not die), maybe with localised necrosis. Injection of Potassium Chloride (another salt) is only done after the condemned is sedated in execution protocols for this reason.
