'''4-HO-DPT''' (also known as '''4-hydroxy-dipropyltryptamine''') is a [[hallucinogen]]ic [[psychoactive class::psychedelic]] drug of the [[chemical class::tryptamine]] class.


Alexander Shulgin first synthesized 4-HO-DPT and documented it in his book [[TiHKAL]] (''Tryptamines I Have Known and Loved''). It is the 4-hydroxyl analog of [[DPT]].<ref>http://www.erowid.org/library/books_online/tihkal/tihkal20.shtml|4-HO-DPT Entry in TIHKAL</ref>.

Today it is either used recreationally or as an [[entheogen]]ic compound and is typically acquired through the use of online [[research chemical]] vendors. Due to the difficulty of its synthesis, it remains relatively uncommon even for a substituted tryptamine and has very little history of human usage.

4-HO-DPT, or 4-hydroxy-N,N-dipropyltryptamine, is a synthetic indole molecule of the [[tryptamine]] class. Tryptamines share a core structure comprised of a bicyclic indole heterocycle attached at R<sub>3</sub> to an amino group via an ethyl side chain. 4-HO-DPT is substituted at R<sub>4</sub> of its indole heterocycle with a hydroxyl functional group OH−. It also contains two propyl chains bound to the terminal amine R<sub>N</sub> of its tryptamine backbone ([[DPT]]).

Like with most [[psychedelic]] tryptamines, 4-HO-DPT is thought to act principally as a [[Serotonin#The_5-HT_system|5-HT<sub>2A</sub>]] [[Agonist#Agonists|partial agonist]]. The psychedelic effects are believed to come from 4-HO-DPT's binding efficacy at the 5-HT<sub>2A</sub> receptors. However, the role of these interactions and how they result in the psychedelic experience continues to remain elusive.

==Subjective effects==
The effects listed below are based upon the [[subjective effects index]] and personal experiences of [[PsychonautWiki]] [[Special:TopUsers|contributors]]. The listed effects will rarely (if ever) occur all at once, but heavier dosages will increase the chances and are more likely to induce a full range of effects.
{{Preamble/SubjectiveEffects}}


In comparison to other [[tryptamine]]s such as [[4-AcO-DMT]] and [[4-HO-DMT]] it is extremely similar in terms of its visual, cognitive and physical effects although it feels somewhat less natural and slightly more synthetic. It is also worth noting that it lacks the extremely uncomfortable physical side effects which are present within its close structural relative [[DPT]]. This allows it to feel far more similar to that of a generic or classical substituted tryptamine such as [[psilocin]].

The toxicity and long-term health effects of recreational 4-HO-DPT use do not seem to have been studied in any scientific context and the exact [[Toxicity::toxic dose is unknown]]. This is because 4-HO-DPT is a [[research chemical]] with very little history of human usage. Anecdotal evidence from people within the psychonaut community who have tried 4-HO-DPT suggests that there are no negative health effects attributed to simply trying the drug by itself at low to moderate doses and using it very sparingly (but nothing can be completely 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.

===Tolerance and addiction potential===
===Tolerance and addiction potential===
4-HO-DPT is [[Addiction potential::not habit-forming]] and the desire to use it can actually decrease with regular consumption. Like with most [[psychedelics]] it is most often thought to be self-regulating.

Tolerance to the effects of 4-HO-DPT are 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-DPT presents cross-tolerance with [[Cross-tolerance::all [[psychedelic]]s]], meaning that after the consumption of 4-HO-DPT all psychedelics will have a reduced effect.
