The experience of [[Auditory effects - Psychedelics#Hallucinations|auditory hallucinations]] on MDMA is extremely common, usually occurring at the end of the night, and almost always consisting of memory replays from the previous several hours. They are commonly manifested as spontaneous clips of the music that was played and garbled voices of the people that were spoken too. These can become as loud in volume as the level of noise heard at any rave or house party and can occasionally become complex enough to manifest themselves as intricate, previously unheard and completely coherent songs or symphonies of any style. | The experience of [[Auditory effects - Psychedelics#Hallucinations|auditory hallucinations]] on MDMA is extremely common, usually occurring at the end of the night, and almost always consisting of memory replays from the previous several hours.

MDA also differs from its methylated cousin MDMA in its acute toxicity—it is clearly more toxic, with toxicity indicative of overstimulation of the central nervous system and the cardiovascular system.<ref>Diaz, Jaime. How Drugs Influence Behavior. Englewood Cliffs: Prentice Hall, 1996.</ref> Symptoms of acute toxicity may include agitation, sweating, increased blood pressure and heart rate, dramatic increase in body temperature, convulsions, and death. Death is usually caused by cardiac effects and subsequent hemorrhaging in the brain (stroke).<ref>Diaz, Jaime. How Drugs Influence Behavior.
