Overdoses of 2C-I have been reported to caused marked increases in blood pressure, heart rate, and there was one reported case of renal failure that involved 2C-I. Let's also not forget that one of the precursors used in the synthesis of 2C-I is IODINE, which by itself can cause renal failure and permanent thyroid damage. You're nuts if you think that the end product is devoid of any precursors used, many of these chemicals are well below 99% purity standards. It is conceivable with a high dose to overshoot the maximum "safe" range of iodine which is around 1mg in a day.
Either way, every time "heroic" doses of any chemical are posted, it should be indicated that those doses are not the dose that is recommended nor should it be considered safe. This is a harm reduction website. Just because someone took such ludicrous doses of 2C-I and survived doesn't mean that 20mg won't send the next person to the hospital.
I really don't care what people think about me but this site exists for harm reduction and drug eduction first and everything else is secondary and people seem to forget that. Here are the facts: 2C-I has killed. 2C-E has killed. 5-MeO-AMT has killed. AMT has killed. 2C-T-7 has killed many. Don't forget about the Bromo-dragonfly disaster. NBOMe's have sent people to the hospital. Cathinones have killed many. You would be hard-pressed to find a single one of these chemicals that has not triggered a hospital visit or a death and many of them we never hear about because drug detection is so difficult in these cases.
The fact is that a someone who knows nothing about these chemicals but has access to them could see these high doses and think they're normal. The fact is that they are not.
"What is Bluelight?
Bluelight (
www.bluelight.ru) is an international message board that educates the public about responsible drug use (with a focus on MDMA) by promoting free discussion. We advocate harm reduction and attempt to eliminate misinformation. Bluelight is funded by private donations and maintained by a team of volunteers.
Bluelight does not condone or condemn the use of illegal drugs. Bluelight is a place for people to ask questions and educate themselves about drugs so they can make more informed decisions regarding their personal use. Other programs that advocate complete abstinence have had limited success, so Bluelight anticipates that people will continue to use illegal drugs regardless of the potential health or legal consequences. We want to encourage people to take personal responsibility for the choices they make regarding their drug consumption.
Harm reduction is the practice of taking reasonable measures to minimize the risks from drug use. Common harm reduction activities include encouraging people to exercise moderation in their drug consumption and to understand the purity, dose and effects of the drug they are consuming. There is no such thing as safe drug use, but if someone is educated in the general principles of harm reduction, they increase the odds that their drug use will not lead to short-term disasters or long-term negative consequences."

I think that too many people have forgotten the reason that Bluelight exists. If you are going to talk about reckless dosages, at least preface it with the fact that you were overdoing it as I and many others who have done such reckless things have done.

I post on BL when I'm experiencing all levels of intoxication.
