[[Subjective effects]] include [[stimulation]], [[geometry|open and closed-eye visuals]], [[time distortion]], [[ego loss]], and [[euphoria]]. 25C-NBOMe's effects are sometimes compared to those of [[LSD]] or [[DOx]]. However, it is reported to have stronger visual effects and less cognitive and emotional effects like [[ego loss]] and [[introspection]]. Additionally, 25C-NBOMe is reported to be considerably more stimulating than other psychedelics. Serious side effects are more common and include [[nausea]], [[muscle tension]], [[anxiety]], cardiovascular effects, and [[seizures]].

It is worth noting that members of the [[25x-NBOMe|NBOMe]] series are not [[orally]] active and should be administered [[sublingual|sublingually]] (by holding it into one's mouth and allowing it to absorb over a period of 15 minutes). 25C-NBOMe can also be vaporized and inhaled for more rapid and powerful effects and a shorter duration. However, this route of administration is highly advised against due to the difficulties of measuring and handling substances that are active in the microgram range as it significantly increases the risk of overdose. 25C-NBOMe is also sometimes sold as a counterfeit version of LSD due to its similar effects and ability to be laid onto blotter paper.
