You COULD, but traces of the drug would be transferred over to the donated blood. I don't know if the donated blood is tested for it, but the medical personnel doing the collecting would definitely be told to watch out for donors like that, and to turn them away.

What is the difference between an injection that is given IM OR IV?

IM means Intramuscular route of drug administration, while IV means Intraveinal route of drug administration. IV route, takes the drug directly into the bloodstream resulting in 100% bioavailability instantly. Where as in IM route, drug is injected into muscle tissues, which holds the drug for a while and gradually releases into the bloodstream through the network bed of capillaries running across or surrounding the muscle tissue. In IM, the bioavailability may be slightly less than 100% of drug due to diffusion from muscle through tissue fluid and into the blood.

What happens when donating blood?

When you donate blood the blood taker removes blood from your body through a needle and either a tube or IV and blood bag. After having the blood drawn you may feel dizzy or nauseous from the lack that is causing oxygen to not be transferred at it's regular rate. After the blood is taken your bone marrow starts producing more blood to replace the blood loss. It can take awhile for the blood to be replaced and proper nutrition is a must.
