Quick info
Methylone (2-methylamino-1-(3,4-methylenedioxyphenyl) propan-1-one or methylenedioxy-methcathinone) is a synthetically produced amphetamine derivative, has a similar structure to MDMA and belongs to the group of empathogens.
Methylone has a more stimulating and less empathogenic effect compared to MDMA. The effect is more constant, the "hangover" less than with MDMA.
180 - 280 mg
Forms of consumption
swallowed, snorted or injected
Onset of action
20 - 75 minutes (faster when taken on an empty stomach)
Duration of action
3 - 6 hours
Appearances
yellowish liquid or as white powder
Short-term side effects are increased body temperature and heartbeat, dilated pupils and tightening of the jaw. The side effects and the (long-term) risks of methylone have hardly been researched yet.
Refrain from re-throwing: This does not intensify or prolong the flash with methylone.
Be sure to drink enough water during the effect.
Do not combine methylone with alcohol and other drugs, especially MAO inhibitors.
Do not use methylone if you have heart or circulatory problems, high blood pressure, diabetes, asthma, epilepsy or mental health problems.
LSD analogues are substances that are chemically very similar to LSD and can have comparable effects. Some of them have been known for a long time (e.g. ALD52, ETH-LAD, AL-LAD, PRO-LAD etc.) and have been studied pharmacologically as well as psychopharmacologically, at least in part. Others are newer "creations" (e.g. the derivatives 1P-LSD,1B-LSD, 1cP-LSD, 1V-LSDetc.), for which only few or no data are available. Certain LSD analogues can (still) be legally produced, traded and consumed in some countries, which is the main reason for their distribution.
Most LSD analogues are naturally different from LSD in their effect and/or potency (e.g. ETH-LAD, AL-LAD, LSZ etc.). In contrast, the so-called 1-acylated LSD compounds (e.g. 1P-LSD, 1V-LSD, 1B-LSD, ALD-52, etc.) are presumed, on the basis of pharmacological studies, to convert into LSD in the body (they function as so-called prodrugs) and thus have a comparable psychoactive effect to LSD.
In the case of prodrugs of LSD and LSD analogues, it has not been conclusively clarified whether, in addition to their psychoactive effect, they can produce other pharmacological effects. How potent these prodrugs are compared to the resulting substance (e.g., 1P-LSD to LSD), and to what extent a delay in onset of action occurs in each case, may be substance-dependent and cannot be generalized. Therefore, it is important to approach the dose/effect carefully to avoid overdoses.
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.
