After doing as much research as SWIM could on propylhexadrine (there isn't really much information anywhere on safety, etc) SWIM decided to try it and attempt to gain some information to help SWIY that may also want to try it.

SWIM did this "experiment" for ~3 days, with a trained nurse on hand in case anything went wrong. SWIM doesn't recommend matching these dosages, and went as far as he did only to get some helpful information into the community. He hopes this information will help others who want to try this substance do it in a fun, safe manner.

SWIMs info: 185lb, 21 year old male, great physical condition

SWIM bought 5 benzedrex inhalers for this experiment. The highest dosage he had found online was 750mg, and warnings to not go beyond 1g but no real reasons for this number.

SWIM started the experiment at 8:30AM on Day 1. He opened the benzedrex shells and cut the cottons into 25 equal sized pieces. He then soaked them in 5 shots lemon juice for 3 hours, stirring occasionally (SWIM can't swallow cotton). He then wrung the left over cotton wad out over the lemon juice to get every last drop of the wanted substance. SWIM now had 5 shots lemon juice infused with 1.25g of propylhexadrine, each shot being worth the usual 250mg.

At 11:30AM he took the first shot, chased with orange juice-- not bad at all. Around the 30 minute mark he notice marked changes in his alertness and mental clarity. It had fully kicked in around an hour later, 12:30PM. SWIM enjoyed the effects immensely and as he was doing this on a weekend he decided to use the speedy, euphoric mental clarity and quickness to play some video games with friends (chatting on skype as well). The effects were exactly as expected and I loved the first dose, my reaction time sped up, I was more social and euphoric... all around a very good speedy feeling. If SWIM had to compare it to something else it would have to be a strong dose of adderall mixed with a moderate dose of MDMA. Needless to say SWIM was loving it!

Around 6:30PM SWIM noticed the effects starting to ebb away, and so he did another 250mg shot. This time the come up only took about 15 minutes and the euphoria and speediness came back in full force, better than before. The mental clarity and speed were also very good, and SWIM was having a great time playing online games with his friends on Skype. There isn't too much more about the experience from this dose-- the effects stayed strong, no negative effects and SWIM continued on my speed fueled gaming/social binge, mostly because there wasn't anything else to do anyway.

At 2:00AM on Day 2 SWIM noticed himself starting to come down and took the third 250mg shot. Yet again the effects rushed back in full force and SWIM was skyping with 6 people, playing the game we like to play and having an amazing time. The only negative effect SWIM had at this point was urinating-- even if SWIM really had to go, he had to push it out like the PC muscle wouldn't relax or something. It wasn't painful, simply annoying. The euphoria, speed and clarity were all still very pronounced and in full effect.

At 10:00AM SWIM took the fourth 250mg shot. SWIM was now writing code for a program he had been working on and said he was flying through it having an amazing time. He didn't have much more to report here, same effects, same trouble urinating but all around loving the experience. He also said that every time he re-dosed it took him longer to come down and need to do another dose, and the effects never got old or worrisome. He was euphoric and very speedy. He hung out with friends and played disc golf for most of the day.

At 6:00PM SWIM took the fifth 250mg shot, making his total dosage over this time period 1.25g. Still just the one negative urination side effect, still euphoric with intense mental clarity and speediness.

At midnight on Day 2 the effects were still going strong for SWIM and he decided to play a PC game, which is very fun under the effects of propylhexadrine. He played for 5 hours and said that the effects weren't waning at all yet.

At 3:00AM on Day 3 SWIM noticed the effects starting to go away. He says the crash wasn't bad, however his heart rate (which had already been elevated but within safe paramenters) was slowly speeding up as he came down.

At 6:00PM on Day 3 SWIM was almost completely "down" but his heart rate was very rapid. He says he had the nurse take his pulse and it was the highest she had ever seen (220bpn+ apparently). His chest was also getting slightly tight and it was growing hard to breathe. SWIM took 2mg of xanax, 3mg of clonazepam and an extra strong dose of his chosen vasodilators (niacin and something the nurse had on hand). After about 45 minutes his heart had slowed to a pace that was still fast, but very much safer than it had been (sub 130bm). He thinks this happened because of the amount of stress he had put his body through coupled with the massive vasoconstriction caused by the high dose of propylhexadrine. He said that while it was happening it was one of the scariest things he had ever experience, and that he was sure his heart was going to burst any second. This is why he does not recommend matching this dosage, or even going above 750mg even if you have the required fixes for the situation on hand. 250mg is perfect for a ~6 hour experience and unless you want to be up for days and experience what he did at the end SWIY should probably heed the advice. Other than that SWIM experienced very little comedown and says that the sleep he got the next two nights were amazing.

He does note one more negative effect that comes after the crash-- he felt weak for two or three days after this experience, however he says this is to be expected with most stim binges.

SWIM summarizes it as such: this drug is a lot of fun, and a great stim should you want to try it.

His rules to stay safe while using this: take no more than 500mg in any one dose and do not exceed 1g per 18 hours unless you want the very uncomfortable side effects he got from dosing so high over such a long period of time.

SWIMs rating on propylhexadrine: (out of 10)
Safety: 6.5 (as long as you follow his advice, and stay below 1g per experience)
Euphoria: 7
Mental Clarity: 8
Speediness: 7
Mental Quickness: 9


Stay safe and take care of your heart.
 
Yea ive always wondered about ye olde benzedrex...its like the first amp widely abused by the american public years ago..

I always notiice on adderall my dick shrinks by a good inch, my ballsack too..I also have trouble pissing on adderall sometimes....i just write it up to hypertension

And yea if your at the point you cant even piss, i wouldnt even think bout taking more...imagine your veins as the inside of your dick and the heart as the muscle you use(relax) to piss...if you have to push out a piss like your takin a shit, imagine how hard your heart is working to pump blood...

shoot i wish i had a personal nurse to care for me in case of od lol
 
Ever time I've done benedrex, although it was surprisingly euphoric, better than phentermine, it been a really dirty, toxic high with disturbing cardiovascular effects. Even though Vicks is much weaker and less euphoric it doesn't have the body load of Bezedrex. Either way I would rather use the money to buy real uppers.

Your thinking of Benzedrine inhalers, or the original Vicks inhaler, which contained amphetamine and real methamphetamine respectively. Benezedrex and "Levometamfetamine" are inferior replacements that came much later.
 
What was the Original Poster's previous experience with amphetamines and drugs in general? Do they have a daily, weekly, or any scheduled drug regiment? If not is it just on weekends or just to work or chill etc? Thanks for posting in the first place, sounds like a noteworthy compound.
 
Read the rules. We don't use SWIM here. This post is hardly appropriate.

Propylhexadrine is extremely dangerous in high doses.

This is a harm reduction website.
 
Before discovering RC stimulants, Benzedrex was a daily fixture in my drug lineup for almost 3 years. Here are the most important things I learned over that time:

1. Don't eat the cotton.
2. Start with a small amount. 250 mg is waaay too much for some people.
3. To prepare for use, let the cotton soak in water/cola or some other liquid and consume slowly. No need to throw the cotton away, as you'll just waste good droogs.
4. Have plenty of sweets on hand. For some reason, PPX triggers severe sugar cravings for me.
5. Don't combine with other stimulants like caffeine until you know how it affects you.
6. Never, EVER inject it unless you want to die immediately.
6. Do not use for its recommended purpose. Inhaling Benzedrex leads to HORRIBLE and almost instantaneous nasal congestion. This fact cannot be lost on the manufacturers.
 
Sorry...Encouraging recreational propylhexadrine use is not conducive to harm reduction at all. Best not to go there...
