Bufotenin

Since I only found 4 threads that even mention bufotenin, I decided to give it its own thread.

Bufotenin is an extremely powerful psychadelic found in toad venom. Perhaps the only psychadelic more powerful than bufotenin is 5-MeO-DMT. Bufotenin is related to DMT.

I have never known anyone who has done bufotenin. Most people have never even heard of it. I have never even seen a picture of it, nor do I have any clue what it looks like. I'm guessing pure bufotenin extract looks kinda like some kind of powdery substance(?) I don't know. If anyone has a picture, it would be greatly appreciated.

This is where the whole "toad licking" myth comes from. However, there are cardiotoxic (KILLS YOUR HEART, MORON) substances in toad venom that are only active orally. So, you will get high if you lick toads enough. But you'll also die.

Bufotenin can be extracted from toad venom and smoked, however.

So, has anyone here had any experiences with this mystical drug?
 
It's not that great imo.

It's the main active ingredient in yopo snuff. Just buy some seeds of Anadenanthera colubrina or Anadenanthera peregrina.

Takes a bit of preparation though.
 
i would rather smoke the frog shit. It has glands that excrete a little of both. Anyway your supposed to squeeze the glands and some milky shit comes out. You shoot that onto a mirror and let dry. Now you have a crystalline substance that you can smoke in an ice pipe or whatever you feel you need to do. Seems like an easier process to me. Definitely put a little thought into it as you can see.

It's apparantly a piss-poor high. Not worth a wank compared to DMT.
 
It has some unwanted body load, more so than what has been reported on 5-MeO-DMT or DMT. Vasoconstriction isn't uncommon. Seems like an interesting experience, but not something I will actively seek out.
 
I was always under the impression that bufotenin was the same as 5-HO-DMT which is responsible for most of the unwanted or undesirable effects that sometimes happen when someone smokes DMT extracted from sources high in 5-HO-DMT.

Everything that I have read about it has lead me to think there is no reason to explore it as I dont really enjoy 5-meo-dmt anywhere near as much as n,n-DMT in fact, I consider 5-meo-dmt to be disphoric for me. and my understanding is that 5-ho-dmt is the least enjoyable /desirable of all the variations of DMT that occur in nature
 
I've never used pure bufotenin mind you, but having tried yopo I have to say it was actually quite pleasant, well after the violent vomiting that is haha. But for me it was like a combination of 5-meo-dmt and mushrooms, and by that I mean the body high/load were very similar to 5-meo-dmt and the visual and mental aspects of it were very akin to mushrooms. I tried it at 2 doses one was weighed out to about .1g and the other .5g of the snuff. I also had a friend who tried up to .9-1g of the snuff and he seemed to really like it as well. It's very short acting even at higher doses my friends trip was only about an hour and a half long. But as you can see YMMV as quite a few people seem to not like it.
 
Like a couple of others here I've used Yopo snuff a few times with mixed results. The pain from snorting it is up there with that of snorting 2C-E, in my opinion, and the results I got weren't really worth the pain - a bit like smoking a low-moderate dose of DMT if I were to compare it to anything. It was interesting enough to be... interesting though. Yopo contains other active chemicals too though so I couldn't speak for pure bufotenin.
 
I didn't think it hurt. I did have that nutty/seedy/woody taste stuck in the back of my throat/nose for hours which was pretty annoying.
 
It burned my nose for sure, though I've snorted stuff that burned much much worse as well, then again I don't think I've found anything that burned as badly as diphenhydramine that shit was the worst. But I did find a good way to get rid of the taste/smell of the snuff. What worked for me was flushing out the sinuses with saline and then chugging a glass of oj. Oh and shambles it sounds like your dose was just not high enough which IMO is the problem with this snuff the dose you're required to snort is incredibly high. .5g which I found to be a very acceptable dose was quite a bit of material to be snorting.
 
ive heard of people mixing bufotenin with changa- no idea how good it is, but theres a tek about it im sure someone could find if they were interested.
