==Subjective effects==

It is commonly reported that the first three to four hours of 4-FA present distinct [[entactogen]]ic effects that have been reported as feeling somewhat similar to MDMA although not quite as powerful. This is thought to correlate with the duration in which it is promoting the release of [[serotonin]] (in addition to [[dopamine]] and [[norepinephrine]]. After this first phase of the experience, the effect then shifts towards something which feels like classic [[amphetamine]] stimulation which can persist for an extended period.{{citation needed}}
