2cb long-term brain/health effects speculations?

[csrpj]

i know not much is known, but is there any info on this? i now have access and want to be doing this drug, but i also don't wanna be stupid... any research or anecdotal reports that might indicate problems or safety?

problems?
spazzing out and stuttering apparently

the halogenated (Cl, Br, I) members of the 2c-family seem to be very well tolerated by most people, even in 'heroic' or 'stupid' doses like 100+mg of 2C-I.

there have been deaths from 2C-T-7 (see erowid) but these are isolated cases of people combining them with street ecstasy pills and snorting high (30+mg) doses of 2C-T-7. it has been speculated that T-7 (and possibly T-2) due to their sulfur atom may act as an inhibitor of MAO, which can be very dangerous in combination with monoamine releasers like MDMA.

as far as clinical research studies on the safety of these drugs, I don't know of any. 2C-B in particular has had tons of street testing thanks to its high popularity during the 90s.

as always, trip drugs can cause an increase in body temperature. combined with nausea, most people neglect to eat or drink during a trip. it is highly recommended that you keep hydrated during a trip, preferably with salty snacks as well.

 

[any major dude]

the metabolism of 2c-x's could result in free radicals, but an antioxidant supplement, glass or two of green tea, Fuze, or vitamin c capsule, would each be enough to mitigate the effects of this. They're generally regarded as quite safe

yeah, honestly the only things i would be truly worried about are

1. history of heart problems in the family
2. history of mental illness in the family
