Very little human data exist. All dosage estimates are extrapolated from closely related cathinones such as pentedrone and pentylone, a handful of Reddit and Bluelight reports, and forensic potency modelling. Users describe rapid, clean stimulation with mild empathogenic warmth, stronger on dopamine and norepinephrine than serotonin. Significant cardiovascular strain including tachycardia and vasoconstriction, along with harsh comedowns, have been reported above approximately 60 mg oral. Because metabolic and toxicological profiles are unknown, start with allergy tests (5 mg or less) and avoid frequent redosing.
