Safety Considerations:
- 2C-I can cause a range of side effects, including nausea, anxiety, paranoia, elevated heart rate, and confusion. In some cases, it has been linked to more severe reactions, especially when mixed with other substances.
- : 2C-I is a powerful psychedelic compound with limited medical or therapeutic applications, mainly recognized for its recreational use. Although it shares structural similarities with other phenethylamines, its effects and risks make it a substance of concern in unsupervised settings.

- Physical Characteristics:
- Appearance: White or off-white crystalline powder
- Solubility: Soluble in organic solvents (ethanol, DMSO), slightly soluble in water.
- Pharmacology:
- Mechanism of Action: 2C-I acts primarily as a serotonin receptor agonist, particularly at the 5-HT2A receptor, which is known to mediate many of the effects of hallucinogens.
- Onset of Action: Within 1–2 hours after ingestion.
- Duration: Typically lasts 6-10 hours, depending on the dosage and method of administration.
- Dosage: Effective doses typically range from 10 to 25 mg orally. Dosages below 10 mg are considered mild, while doses above 20 mg can produce intense psychedelic experiences.
- Legal Status:
- 2C-I is classified as a Schedule I substance in many countries, making it illegal to manufacture, distribute, or possess in those regions. However, in some places, it may still be sold as a research chemical under legal grey areas.
Uses of 2C-I Powder
- Recreational Use:
- Psychedelic Effects: 2C-I is primarily used recreationally for its psychedelic effects, which include visual distortions, enhanced color perception, and euphoria. It may also create a sense of empathy, similar to MDMA, making users feel connected to others.
- Sensory Enhancement: Users often report heightened sensitivity to music and light, making it popular in party and festival scenes.
- Research:
- 2C-I, being a relatively understudied compound, is sometimes used in chemical and neurological research to study the effects of serotonin receptor activation.
- Self-Exploration:
- Like other psychedelics, some individuals use 2C-I for self-reflection and introspection, seeking to explore deeper aspects of their psyche or gain insight into their emotions and behaviors.
Risks and Considerations
- Side Effects: Users may experience nausea, headaches, muscle tension, anxiety, and agitation. Higher doses can lead to intense hallucinations, confusion, and paranoia.
- Overdose Potential: While rare, overdosing on 2C-I can result in serotonin syndrome, hyperthermia, or cardiovascular issues.
