Quick info

2C-B and other 2C substances (e.g., 2C-I, 2C-E, 2C-C) are synthetically produced mescaline derivatives and belong to the group of psychedelics. They are often counted among the new psychoactive substances and have been little researched. 2C-B is the best-known offshoot of the substance series and was already sold in the 1990s as "Nexus" or "Erox". 2C-B has a stimulating effect, alters perceptions and is also used as a party drug, mainly in low and medium doses.
A drive-increasing effect sets in. Perceptions and feelings become more intense, the body temperature and pulse rate are increased. From 10-15 mg 2C-B or 2C-I (snorted already from 7 mg) the effect usually gets a hallucinogenic character. The boundaries between inside and outside can dissolve. Often, in higher dosages, moving colored patterns and luminous fields are perceived around objects and persons. However, the intoxication is perceived as less profound than with LSD.
Other 2C-x derivatives act in a similar spectrum, but some are many times more potent and hallucinogenic. It is therefore necessary to inform yourself about the exact substance, dosage and effect before consumption.
Onset of action:
Swallowedafter 30 - 60 minutes
Snorted after approx. 5 - 10 minutes
Duration of action:
2C-Bapprox. 4 - 8 hours
2C-I approx. 6 - 10 hours
Swallowed (2C-B)
light: 5 - 15 mg
medium: 15 - 25 mg
strong: 25 - max. 45 mg
Snorted (2C-B)
light: 2 - 8 mg
medium: 8 - 12 mg
strong: 12 - max. 23 mg
2C-x derivatives have an effect even in small amounts; even 2 mg more or less can make a big difference in the experienced effect; a gradual approach to the individual dose is recommended. Dosages above 35 mg of 2C-B or 2C-I orally can be experienced as unpleasantly strong even by experienced users.

Lower risk
Learn about the substances, their effects, how quickly they take effect, and the proper dosage. Get to know each substance on its own first, and see how they affect you and whether they suit you before mixing them. Allow enough time between doses, mix as few substances as possible, and start with low doses.
Risk
This combination already poses a significant risk. The effects can reinforce each other or change in unpredictable ways. Therefore, use these substances with caution, test new or unfamiliar substances individually first, and keep the doses as low as possible. Allow sufficient time between doses and avoid taking additional doses on a whim. Be aware of the varying durations of action for each substance.

2C-B samples may contain a variety of substances that originate in the manufacturing process. They are referred to as synthesis impurities or synthesis by-products. Their presence depends on the manufacturing process, as well as on the effort made to purify the produced 2C-B at the end.
Each synthesis impurity represents an unknown health risk: the properties hazardous to health have never been scientifically studied and are therefore difficult to estimate. The more different synthesis impurities are contained in a sample, the greater the probability that an impurity with a high adverse health effect is among them. Even a small amount of such an impurity can be harmful. In addition, synthetic impurities are an indication of improper manufacturing/purification. It is also important to add that regular consumption of 2C-B with synthetic impurities poses a higher health risk than one-time consumption.
If you or someone else needs urgent help after taking drugs or alcohol, call an ambulance on 144. Tell the emergency responders everything you know.
