A large body of anecdotal reports suggests that the active dose can vary greatly. Some users report very heavy experiences with doses as low as 17mg, while others report light experiences with doses as high as 30 mg.<ref>{{cite web|publisher=Erowid|title=4-HO-MET: Dose|work=The Vaults of Erowid|publication-date=August 18, 2011|access-date=August 27, 2020|url=https://www.erowid.org/chemicals/4_ho_met/4_ho_met_dose.shtml}}</ref> Possible causes for this observed effect may be attributed to individual differences in neurochemistry and metabolism as well as large variations in the quality of different batches and physical forms (e.g. the HCl vs. fumarate salt) that it has appeared in. The experiences reported indicate hallucinatory states coming in waves of euphoria, swapping from moments of sobriety to intense visuals. Because 4-HO-MET is heavy on visuals and light on cognitive distress, it can be described as a recreational and practical alternative to psilocybin mushrooms, with thematic similarities in visual effects.
