The toxicity and long-term health effects of recreational 2C-H use do not seem to have been studied in any scientific context and the exact [[Toxicity::toxic dose is unknown]]. This is because 2C-H ~~has almost no documented~~ history of human usage.

The toxicity and long-term health effects of recreational 2C-H use do not seem to have been studied in any scientific context and the exact [[Toxicity::toxic dose is unknown]]. This is because 2C-H is a [[research chemical]] with very little history of human usage.

Independent research should always be done to ensure that a combination of two or more substances is safe before consumption.

Anecdotal reports from those who have tried 2C-H suggests that there are no negative health effects attributed to simply trying the substance by itself at low to moderate doses and using it very sparingly (but nothing can be completely guaranteed).

It is strongly recommended that one use [[responsible drug use|harm reduction practices]] when using this substance.

It is strongly recommended that one use [[responsible drug use|harm reduction practices]], such as [[volumetric dosing]], when using this substance so as to ensure the accurate administration of the intended dose.

===Tolerance and addiction potential===

Although no formal studies have been conducted, it is not unreasonable to assume that as is the case with psychedelics in general, 2C-H is [[Addiction potential::not habit-forming]] and that the desire to use it can actually decrease with use.

Tolerance to the effects of 2C-H are built [[Time to full tolerance::almost immediately after ingestion]]. After that, it takes about [[Time to half tolerance::3-5 days]] for the tolerance to be reduced to half and [[Time to zero tolerance::7-10 days]] to be back at baseline (in the absence of further consumption). 2C-H presents cross-tolerance with [[Cross-tolerance::all [[psychedelic]]s]], meaning that after the consumption of 2C-H all psychedelics will have a reduced effect.

===Dangerous interactions===

*'''[[DangerousInteraction::Tramadol]]''' - Tramadol lowers the seizure threshold<ref>Talaie, H., Panahandeh, R., Fayaznouri, M. R., Asadi, Z., & Abdollahi, M. (2009). Dose-independent occurrence of seizure with tramadol. Journal of medical toxicology, 5(2), 63-67. doi:10.1007/BF03161089</ref> and [[psychedelics]] may act as triggers for seizures, particularly in those who are predisposed to them.{{citation needed}}

*'''[[DangerousInteraction::Stimulants]]''' - Stimulants affect many parts of the brain. Combined with psychedelics, stimulation can turn into uncontrollable [[anxiety]], [[Panic attacks|panic]], [[thought loops]] and [[paranoia]]. This interaction may cause elevated risk of psychosis.{{citation needed}}

*'''[[DangerousInteraction::Lithium]]''' - Lithium is often used as treatment for bipolar disorder. It may possibly cause elevated risk of seizures and psychosis due to its [[Glutamate|glutaminergic]] and [[GABA|GABAergic]] effects.{{citation needed}}
