Risk assessment

One sample declared as 3-MMC did not contain 3-MMC but 3-CMC (3-chloromethcathinone, clophedrone) and iso-3-CMC.

3-CMC is a New Psychoactive Substance (NPS). Little information is 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 3-MMC and mephedrone (4-MMC) and is often marketed on the internet as a mephedrone substitute. Compared to 3-MMC, 3-CMC is dosed slightly lower.

The iso-3-CMC is an isomer of 3-CMC and most likely formed during production to 3-CMC.

Due to the lack of scientific studies on 3-CMC and iso-3-CMC as well as the potentially neurotoxic effect of 3-CMC, we advise against consumption!

In the case of powders and crystalline samples, false declarations occur time and again; it is therefore also essential to have these tested before consumption!

Safer Use

Analysis

Have your substances tested in a Drug Checking

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

Always use your own sniffing utensils when applying powders nasally (sniffing) to avoid infecting yourself or others with diseases.
