===Physical effects===

*'''[[Effect::Stimulation]]'''

*'''[[Effect::Stimulation]]''' - 4F-EPH is moderately to highly stimulating, but much less so than the closely related [[4F-MPH]]. The style of stimulation can be described as smooth, with a slight to moderate push similar to, but significantly weaker than [[methamphetamine]]. It is much subtler and less forced than that of [[4F-MPH]], [[methylphenidate]], and [[amphetamine]].

*'''[[Effect::Dehydration]]'''

*'''[[Effect::Dehydration]]''' - Relatively mild, provided one consumes an appropriate amount of water. Water should be sipped slowly at spaced intervals to prevent water intoxication.

*'''[[Effect::Appetite suppression]]'''

*'''[[Effect::Appetite suppression]]''' - This effect is mild.

*'''[[Effect::Increased heart rate]]'''

*'''[[Effect::Increased heart rate]]''' - 4F-EPH has a moderate effect on heart rate that is not concerning or uncomfortable at moderate doses.

*'''[[Effect::Teeth grinding]]''' - This component can be considered to be less intense when compared with that of [[MDMA]].

*'''[[Effect::Increased blood pressure]]''' - A slight-moderate increase in blood pressure is seen with this compound, but only very excessive doses will usually raise it to problematic levels.

*'''[[Effect::Teeth grinding]]''' - This component can be considered to be less intense when compared with that of [[MDMA]]. It is very minimal at moderate doses and only excessive doses usually cause this effect. Even then it is rarely severe enough to reach an uncomfortable or damaging degree. Magnesium supplementation may reduce this.

*'''[[Effect::Pupil dilation]]''' - Pupil dilation is minimal at low-moderate doses, but can be pronounced during the offset of higher doses.

*'''[[Effect::Stamina enhancement]]''' - This component is much weaker than that of most other stimulants, such as [[methylphenidate]] and [[4F-MPH]].

*'''[[Effect::Vasoconstriction]]''' - This effect is much milder than that of most other dopaminergic stimulants at the peak, however it may rapidly become uncomfortable or even dangerous during the offset of very high doses or in individuals with circulatory problems. Blue or deep purple coloration or wrinkling of the skin of the extremities is a medical emergency if it isn't resolved quickly. Putting the hands and feet in a hot bath may help this effect, however fully submersing oneself in hot water is potentially dangerous.

*'''[[Effect::Nasal damage]]''' - 4F-EPH is notably less caustic than EPH ([[ethylphenidate]]), however it is still mildly caustic to the nasal cavities. It is recommended to perform a '''sterile''' saline nasal rinse 15 minutes after snorting this substance. Even with that precaution, intranasal use without significant breaks to allow the nasal cavities to repair themselves will likely still damage the nasal mucous membranes. It is unknown whether this results in permanent injury or simply acute damage.

*'''[[Effect::Increased libido]]''' - There is often a noticeable increase in libido at low-moderate doses, however this effect is much weaker than that experienced with [[4F-MPH]] and [[methamphetamine]]. The style of sexual stimulation induced is an increase in the emotional enjoyment and sensations of sexual activity, but with minimal effect on or even a reduction in the pleasure of orgasm. This effect is less distracting and can be ignored more easily than that induced by many other dopaminergic stimulants.

*'''[[Effect::Decreased libido]]''' - Decreased libido inconsistently occurs at high doses and may be related to unproven, but theorized serotonergic activity.

*'''[[Effect::Orgasm suppression]]''' - Orgasm suppression usually only occurs at high doses and can be described as difficulty reaching an orgasm despite increased or normal libido.

*'''[[Effect::Temporary erectile dysfunction]]''' - This is a common occurrence at moderate-high doses. Note that it is extremely unsafe for the heart to try to counteract this by combining erectile dysfunction drugs with stimulants.

*'''[[Effect::Physical euphoria]]''' - A slight to moderate sense of pleasant well-being and physical comfort is often present at a low level throughout the peak and is strongest at moderate doses. This effect is similar to, but much weaker than that induced by [[methamphetamine]] and [[MDMA]]. It reduces or disappears when used in high doses or when repeatedly redosed.

*'''[[Effect::Spontaneous physical sensations]]''' - Euphoric mild-distinct and all-encompassing sharp tingling sensations that fade rapidly into soft sensations before disappearing frequently occur during the initial "rush" of moderate-high doses, particularly when vaporized or injected intravenously. It is comparable to that experienced during and shortly after orgasm, although a lot milder. This effect rarely if ever occurs when consumed orally, but may occur when administered intranasally, though it is usually to a lesser degree. The rush produced by 4F-EPH may last up to 15 minutes, however it most commonly lasts less than 5 minutes. It diminishes in strength rapidly and eventually disappears when redosed repetitively.

*'''[[Effect::Changes in felt gravity]]''' - A pleasant feeling of lightness in the body frequently occurs during the rush and often persists into the peak. This may occur via any route. It is most common at moderate-high doses and tends to reduce or disappear at excessive doses.
