Interactions

Dangerous

Caution

  • Mescaline
    • The 5-MeO class of tryptamines can be unpredictable in their interactions
  • DOx
    • The 5-MeO class of tryptamines can be unpredictable in their interactions, particularly increasing the risk of unpleasant physical side effects.
  • NBOMes
    • The 5-MeO class of tryptamines can be unpredictable in their interactions and the NBOMes are known to be unpredictable even alone. This combination is best avoided
  • 2C-x
    • The 5-MeO psychedelics can interact unpredictably to potentiate other psychedelics
  • 2C-T-x
    • Both classes of compounds can be unpredictable alone
  • Cannabis
    • Cannabis has an unexpectedly strong and somewhat unpredictable synergy with psychedelics.
  • MDMA
    • Some of the 5-MeO tryptamines are a bit unpredictable and should be mixed with MDMA with care

Unsafe

  • DXM
    • Little information exists about this combination.
  • Amphetamines
    • The anxiogenic and focusing effects of stimulants increase the chance of unpleasant thought loops. The combination is generally unnecessary because of the stimulating effects of psychedelics.
  • Cocaine
    • The anxiogenic and focusing effects of stimulants increase the chance of unpleasant thought loops. The combination is generally unnecessary because of the stimulating effects of psychedelics.
  • Tramadol

Low Risk & Increased Effects

Low Risk & No Increased Effects

  • Caffeine
    • High doses of caffeine may cause anxiety which is less manageable when tripping, and since both are stimulating the combination may cause some physical discomfort.
  • Opioids

Low Risk & Decreased Effects
