3-CMC and iso-3-CMC sold as MDMA
Risk assessment
This sample declared as MDMA does not contain MDMA, but 3-CMC (3-chloromethcathinone, clophedrone) and iso-3-CMC.
3-CMC is a new psychoactive substance (NPS) and belongs to the cathinones. There is hardly any information available on the risks, side effects and long-term consequences of 3-CMC. It is assumed that 3-CMC has a high neurotoxic effect. The chemical structure is similar to that of 3-MMC and 4-MMC (mephedrone) and is often marketed on the internet as a substitute for mephedrone. Compared to MDMA, 3-CMC is dosed slightly lower and has some comparable effects in terms of its effect profile.
iso-3-CMC is an isomer of 3-CMC. No reliable information is available on the risks, side effects, long-term effects and toxicity of iso-3-CMC. The interaction potential with 3-CMC is completely unknown.
Due to the lack of scientific studies on 3-CMC, as well as the potentially neurotoxic effect of 3-CMC, we advise against consumption!
With powders and crystals there are always false declarations; therefore, have these substances analyzed in a drug checking. If you cannot use a drug checking offer, always test a small amount first.

Testing
If you do not have the possibility to have substances analysed, always test a small amount to avoid overdoses.
Wait and see
Wait 2 hours after oral intake, as there are always powders / crystals in circulation with unexpected active ingredients, which can have a later onset of action.
Utensils
When snorting or injecting powders, always use your own equipment to avoid infecting yourself or others with diseases.
