It is structurally related to compounds such as [[MDPV]] and is one of the successors to the [[designer drug]] [[Substituted cathinone|cathinone]] analog [[A-PVP|α-PVP]]. | ||
α-PHP generally comes in the form of either a fine powder or crystallized shards which users can ingest to produce powerful but short-lived euphoric stimulant effects which are comparable to those of [[methamphetamine]] and [[cocaine]] when [[insufflated]] or [[vaporized]].{{citation needed}} Like its [[research chemical]] cathinone predecessors, it is has gained notoriety for its tendency to induce [[compulsive redosing]] and addictive behaviors in a large percentage of its users as well the ability to readily induce [[Delusions|delusional states]] and [[psychosis]] when abused.{{citation needed}} | α-PHP generally comes in the form of either a fine powder or crystallized shards which users can ingest to produce powerful but short-lived euphoric stimulant effects which are comparable to those of [[methamphetamine]] and [[cocaine]] when [[insufflated]] or [[vaporized]].{{citation needed}} Like its [[research chemical]] cathinone predecessors, it is has gained notoriety for its tendency to induce [[compulsive redosing]] and addictive behaviors in a large percentage of its users as well the ability to readily induce [[Delusions|delusional states]] and [[psychosis]] when abused.{{citation needed}} | ||

α-PHP has a short history of use and is subject to much scrutiny by the media.{{citation needed}} It is being used and marketed as a replacement for [[α-PVP]] (known on the street as ''flakka'') a few years following its ban, where it has come to substitute α-PVP in many parts of the world. While initially mass synthesized in Chinese industrial laboratories, a ban on α-PHP within China's borders has forced production to nations worldwide.{{citation needed}} | α-PHP has a short history of use and is subject to much scrutiny by the media.{{citation needed}} It is being used and marketed as a replacement for [[α-PVP]] (known on the street as ''flakka'') a few years following its ban, where it has come to substitute α-PVP in many parts of the world.

The toxicity and long-term health effects of recreational α-PHP use do not seem to have been studied in any scientific context and the [[Toxicity::exact toxic dosage is unknown]]. This is because α-PHP has very little history of human usage. Anecdotal evidence from people who have tried α-PHP within the community suggests that there do not seem to be any negative health effects attributed to simply trying this drug at low to moderate doses by itself and using it sparingly (but nothing can be completely guaranteed). | The toxicity and long-term health effects of recreational α-PHP use do not seem to have been studied in any scientific context and the [[Toxicity::exact toxic dosage is unknown]].
