'''4-Hydroxy-N,N-diethyltryptamine''' (also known as '''4-HO-DET''', '''CZ-74''', and '''Ethocin''') is a lesser-known synthetic [[psychoactive class::psychedelic]] of the [[chemical class::tryptamine]] chemical class that produces [[psilocin]]-like [[psychedelic]] effects when [[Routes of administration|adminstered]]. 4-HO-DET is a close structural and functional analog of [[psilocin]] (4-HO-DMT), the principal psychoactive component in [[magic mushrooms]]. It is notable for sharing many of its core features while retaining subtle variations in its duration, visual, cognitive and bodily effects. | '''4-Hydroxy-N,N-diethyltryptamine''' (also known as '''4-HO-DET''', '''CZ-74''', and '''Ethocin''') is a lesser-known synthetic [[psychoactive class::psychedelic]] of the [[chemical class::tryptamine]] chemical class that produces [[psilocin]]-like [[psychedelic]] effects when [[Routes of administration|adminstered]]. 4-HO-DET is a close structural and functional analog of [[psilocin]] (4-HO-DMT), the principal psychoactive component in [[magic mushrooms]].

The substance was used together with its phosphoryloxy-analog [[wikipedia:4-PO-DET|4-PO-DET]] in human clinical trials in the 1960s by the German researchers Hanscarl Leuner <ref>"Psycholytische Therapie nach Hanscarl Leuner – Grundlagen, Praxis, Perspektiven" (in German), Torsten Passie, Michael Schlichting, Ralf Bolle (published September, 2023).</ref> and G. Baer. | ||
Since its inception, 4-HO-DET has remained relatively uncommon and has very little documentation of human usage, with the majority of [[psychedelic]] users preferring more traditional [[psychedelics]] like the [[psilocybin]] and [[psilocin]] in [[psilocybin mushrooms]], or more recently, [[4-AcO-DMT]]. Today, it is either used as a recreational substance or an [[entheogen]], has no documentation of being sold on the streets and is primarily acquired through the use of online [[research chemical]] vendors. | Since its inception, 4-HO-DET has remained relatively uncommon and has very little documentation of human usage, with the majority of [[psychedelic]] users preferring more traditional [[psychedelics]] like the [[psilocybin]] and [[psilocin]] in [[psilocybin mushrooms]], or more recently, [[4-AcO-DMT]].

4-HO-DET is [[Addiction potential::not habit-forming]] and the desire to use it can actually decrease with use. It is most often self-regulating. | 4-HO-DET is [[Addiction potential::not habit-forming]] and the desire to use it can actually decrease with use. It is most often self-regulating. | ||
Tolerance to the effects of 4-HO-DET | Tolerance to the effects of 4-HO-DET is built [[Time to full tolerance::almost immediately after ingestion]]. After that, it takes about [[Time to half tolerance::3 days]] for the tolerance to be reduced to half and [[Time to zero tolerance::7 days]] to be back at baseline (in the absence of further consumption). 4-HO-DET presents cross-tolerance with [[Cross-tolerance::all [[psychedelic]]s]], meaning that after the consumption of 4-HO-DET all psychedelics will have a reduced effect. | ||
