Over the years DOC has come to be known as a highly dose-sensitive psychedelic that is often sold on blotting paper and known for its long duration (over 12-24 hours), strong visual effects, a unique form of [[stimulation]], and a significant [[body load]].
Over the years DOC has come to be known as a highly dose-sensitive psychedelic that is often sold in powder form or on blotting paper and known for its long duration (over 12-24 hours), strong visual effects, a unique form of [[stimulation]], and a significant [[body load]].


Today, DOC is used as a [[recreational drug use|recreational drug]] and an [[entheogen]], rarely sold on the streets (unless in the form of misrepresented [[LSD]]) and almost exclusively obtained as a grey area [[research chemical]] through online vendors.
