Studies on rodents have found that the effectiveness with which a selective 5-HT<sub>2A</sub> receptor antagonist blocks the behavioral actions of this compound strongly suggest that the 5-HT<sub>2A</sub> receptor is an important site of action for DPT, but the modulatory actions of a 5-HT<sub>1A</sub> receptor antagonist also imply a 5-HT<sub>1A</sub>-mediated component to the actions of DPT.<ref> | Studies on rodents have found that the effectiveness with which a selective 5-HT<sub>2A</sub> receptor antagonist blocks the behavioral actions of this compound strongly suggest that the 5-HT<sub>2A</sub> receptor is an important site of action for DPT, but the modulatory actions of a 5-HT<sub>1A</sub> receptor antagonist also imply a 5-HT<sub>1A</sub>-mediated component to the actions of DPT.<ref>{{cite journal | vauthors=((Fantegrossi, W.)), ((Reissig, C.)), ((Katz, E.)), ((Yarosh, H.)), ((Rice, K.)), ((Winter, J.)) | journal=Pharmacology Biochemistry and Behavior | title=Hallucinogen-like effects of N,N-dipropyltryptamine (DPT): Possible mediation by serotonin 5-HT1A and 5-HT2A receptors in rodents | volume=88 | issue=3 | pages=358–365 | date= January 2008 | url=https://linkinghub.elsevier.com/retrieve/pii/S0091305707002894 | issn=00913057 | doi=10.1016/j.pbb.2007.09.007}}</ref> The role of these interactions and how they result in the [[psychedelic]] experience remains the subject of ongoing scientific investigation. | ||

The toxicity and long-term health effects of recreational DPT do not seem to have been studied in any scientific context and the exact [[Toxicity::toxic dose is unknown]]. This is because DPT is a [[research chemical]] with very little history of human usage. There has been one death associated with the use DPT and seizures, but the dose is unknown.<ref>https://www.startribune.com/carver-county-teen-s-death-puts-spotlight-on-ease-of-purchasing-synthetic-drugs-online/330344661/</ref> | The toxicity and long-term health effects of recreational DPT do not seem to have been studied in any scientific context and the exact [[Toxicity::toxic dose is unknown]].

Anecdotal reports from those who have taken DPT suggests that negative health effects are not likely to occur from simply trying it by itself at low to moderate doses and using it very sparingly (although nothing can be guaranteed). [https://www.google.com/ 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 taken DPT suggests that negative health effects are not likely to occur from simply trying it by itself at low to moderate doses and using it very sparingly (although nothing can be guaranteed).
