===Tolerance and addiction potential===
===Overdose===
The LD<sub>50</sub> of 2C-P has not been established. However, it is believed that 2C-P is likely to have a smaller therapeutic window compared to other 2C's, meaning a lethal dose may be achieved more easily. 2C-P is known to be highly dose-sensitive: a difference of 2 or 5 milligrams may radically change the nature of the experience along with its safety profile. Users who wish to take high doses of this compound are advised to titrate upward slowly, use reliable milligram scales to measure doses, and avoid non-oral routes of administration such as insufflation or injection.
 
There currently exists one case of lethal overdose involving 2C-P. A 25-year old British female died following the ingestion of a large dose of 2C-P at a music festival in 2017. Her boyfriend was charged with manslaughter for allegedly refusing to get her medical attention.<ref>Siddique, Haroon (5 February 2019).

Dose-independent occurrence of seizure with tramadol.

{{DangerousInteractions/Psychedelics}}
*'''[[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 result in an elevated risk of psychosis.{{citation needed}}
*'''[[DangerousInteraction::Lithium]]''' - Lithium is often used as treatment for bipolar disorder. There is a large body of reports that indicate combining it with psychedelics results in a highly elevated risk of seizures and psychosis, possibly owing to its [[Glutamate|glutaminergic]] and [[GABA|GABAergic]] effects.{{citation needed}}
