25x-NBOMe: Difference between revisions

Line 3:

'''25x-NBOMe''' is the general form of the NBOMe series of psychedelic [[phenethylamines]]. The series had nearly no history of human use before 2010 when some of the first compounds became available for purchase from online [[research chemical]] vendors.

It is often sold as [[LSD]], but one fundamental difference between 25x-NBOMe and [[LSD]] is that NBOMe is only active when taken through a sublingual or insufflated route. This means that to get the full effects, 25x-NBOMe blotter paper must be lightly chewed on for 20+ minutes and never immediately swallowed. 25x-NBOMe blotters have a distinct taste that [[LSD]] blotters do not have. Insufflation, however, is not recommended; reports of people suffering dangerous and often fatal overdoses due to this route of administration have been surfacing.

This means that to get the full effects, 25x-NBOMe blotter paper must be lightly chewed on for 20+ minutes and never immediately swallowed. 25x-NBOMe blotters cause numbness of the tongue and have a distinct taste that has been described as "strongly bitter", "metallic", or "chemical like" by those who have tried them. This is unlike [[LSD]] blotters, which will not cause numbness of the tongue and may be tasteless or have a slight flavour depending on the amount of ink on the blotter and the composition of the blotter paper. Although these differences can be helpful in identifying an unwanted compound on a blotter, it is recommended that more reliable methods of identification be used, such as the use of [[Responsible drug use|testing reagents]] like the Ehrlich reagent. Insufflation, however, is not recommended; reports of people suffering dangerous and often fatal overdoses due to this route of administration have been surfacing.
