DPT is commonly consumed via [[insufflation]] or [[orally]]. Many report the experience of insufflation to be very congestive and painful which, with the rapidness of onset, does not give the user much time to acclimate themselves to its powerful effects. It can also be administered [[intramuscular|intramuscularly]] or via [[vaporization]] after conversion to the freebase form. Smoking the freebase is reported to be the preferred route used by the "Temple of True Inner Light". More experiences members ingest a DPT tea. {{citation needed}}

Very little data exists about the pharmacological properties, metabolism, and toxicity of DPT, and it has relatively little history of human usage. It has long been available on the [[research chemicals]] market as a legal, grey-market alternative to [[DMT]], and commercially distributed through online vendors. Many reports also suggest that this substance may be overly difficult to use safely for those who are not already very experienced with [[hallucinogens]]. It is highly advised to approach this powerful [[psychedelic]] substance with the proper amount of precaution and [[Responsible drug use#Hallucinogens|harm reduction practices]] when using it.

The toxicity and long-term health effects of recreational DPT do not seem to have been studied in any scientific context and the exact [[Toxicity::toxic dose is unknown]]. This is because DPT is a [[research chemical]] with very little history of human usage. There has been one death associated with the use DPT and seizures, but the dose is unknown.<ref>{{Citation | vauthors=((Tribune, B. D.

Anecdotal reports from those who have taken DPT suggests that negative health effects are not likely to occur from simply trying it by itself at low to moderate doses and using it very sparingly (although nothing can be guaranteed). [https://www.google.com/ Independent research] should always be done to ensure that a combination of two or more substances is safe before consumption.
