You can put slime into prestas. I haven't as reading online it seemed to say/show that a pinch flat is too much for slime and the result is a pinch flat with a green explosion everywhere.

If I'm going to patch in a hurry then it's when I can see+remove the bit of glass in my tyre and stick on one of the instant patches without fully removing the wheel+tyre. If the wheel comes off the I swap the tube and repair at home/later.
If it's mostly pinch flats, velox rim tape.
