Very little peer-reviewed human data exist. Limited forensic reports indicate occasional appearance in illicit 'party pill' blends between 2013-2019. Animal receptor-binding screens show micromolar affinity for 5-HT2A/2C and moderate inhibition of serotonin uptake, suggesting a hybrid psychedelic-stimulant profile comparable to 4-bromo-2,5-dimethoxy-BZP (2C-B-BZP) but with lower potency. Users report a slow come-up, mild closed-eye visuals, warmth/euphoria, tachycardia, jaw tension and long-lasting stimulation. Nausea, vasoconstriction and headaches are common at >80 mg.
