no you wouldn't, not with equipotent anaesthetic action.
Gaian Planes said:oh, it is anesthetic? I thought that it wasn't (the analogue floating around) hence the decreased cardiotoxicity? I'm hazy on the details, as the compound itself doesn't interest me (BLECK @ coke!)
Tropacocaine (3-pseudotropyl benzoate) has local anaesthetic activity not much behind that of cocaine, but only has 10% of the CNS stimulating activity (ie dopamine reuptake inhibitor), so an active dose of tropacocaine is actually going to be more cardiotoxic. 3-Pseudotropyl 4-fluorobenzoate on the other hand seems to lack local anaesthetic activity, so is going to be a sight less cardiotoxic compared with cocaine (everything else being equal). Fluorotropacocaine has about 40% of the stimulant activity of cocaine
As far as effects go, I've seen plenty of cocaine users who have preferred fluorotropacocaine to their usual indulgence, so it's obviously got something quite impressive about it. As to the ego-boosting, it made me just as unbearable and obnoxious as cocaine does, hence my decision to avoid the stuff in the future...
