Glycerine question - is pharmacy/infant glycercin safe to vape?

[Galactic Stone]

Hi Folks,

Quick question. The local pharmacy sells glycerine for use with babies/infants. The bottle does not say it is "food grade". Is this liquid safe to vape, or should one only use glycerine that is labeled as "food grade" ?

Thanks!

You want to use USP (US Pharmaceutical) grade glycerin. Check the labeling, but I'm thinking that if it's sold in a pharmacy for use with children you should be OK!

Correct. The label should say USP. As long as it does, it is safe for use.

I've gotten it at Walmart and CVS.

Thanks! That's what I thought, but I wasn't 100% sure.

I'd never vape anything made for babies. I don't trust them and you never know when they will turn on you.

BTW, these aren't glycerin-based suppositories, right? This a large bottle of clear liquid, right?

I hate to think that someone might ... well ... you know.

What isle/section of the store is it in? Can you also get VG at Walmart?

Skin care, usually. Yes, you can get it at Walmart. Both the super stores and the neighborhood markets.

At my local store, it's in the infant care section, near the pharmacy but not in it.

A six-oz bottle goes for $3.88 plus tax.

I'll never look at glycerin suppositories the same way..... LOL.
