Drug Exposé: 2C-B-FLY by Cam Leids

Certain drugs or medications may also interact negatively with 2C-B. The intensity of effects from 2CB increases steadily along with the dose. It’s far too easy to take too much, and it can be extremely damaging to the nasal cavity. The powder is usually used in a “parachute” — which involves weighing the dose of powder on a small scale and wrapping it up into a rolling paper. This is then taken just like you would a capsule, by essentially swallowing it whole.

It’s often used as an alternative to MDMA at lower doses and an alternative to LSD in high doses. With that said, if you’re expecting a drug test for any reason, it would be wise to avoid 2C-B. The reagent will turn purple if the sample contains MDMA, and NBOMe substances will turn red. In the United Kingdom, 2C-B is a Class A drug — which implies the drug poses a significant danger to public health and brings the most severe punishments to those caught in possession of the drug. In the US, 2C-B is listed as a Schedule I drug — along with heroin, LSD, and cocaine. An unhealthy relationship with a substance like 2C-B would involve regular, repeated use of the substance either out of compulsion or to find a release from reality.

2C-B is controlled in Australia and on the list of substances subject to import and export controls (Appendix B). It was placed on Schedule One of the Drugs Misuse and Trafficking Act when it first came to notice in 1994, when in a showcase legal battle chemist R. Alexander Shulgin came to Australia to testify on behalf of the defense, to no avail. As with any molecule, 2C-B-FLY requires adequate set and setting, the ideal would be to have a complete day to trip and a day to rest. We will speak here mainly about the family of the phenethylamines.

• He was first overwhelmed with lots of color and then found himself astral traveling to past lives far away.
• Its profile is often described as possessing features similar to 2C-B, mescaline, and MDA.
• Following the ban, other phenethylamines were sold in place of 2C-B until the Netherlands became the first country in the world to ban 2C-I, 2C-T-2 and 2C-T-7 alongside 2C-B.
• What will help you achieve this is putting a rubber band around the 0.6 ml.
• Most people can remain entirely coherent without being inhibited like other psychedelics.
• Users have reported experiencing hypertension, hyperthermia and tachycardia at higher doses.22 As such, those with pre-existing heart conditions should avoid using 2C-B, and users monitor their temperature and heart-rate and respond accordingly.

As a little anecdote, a friend of mine mistakenly took an non-premeditated high dose of 2C-B-FLY. The experience he had was nothing like the ones I had in the 30-40mg range. He was first overwhelmed with lots of color and then found himself astral traveling to past lives far away. His return to reality was not easy at all and his experience was very scary. This is why I insist on really taking your time with the molecule.

Analogs and derivatives

• 2C-B-Fly is a molecule allowing psychedelic exploration while being relatively soft and easy to control.
• It isn’t as powerful as LSD, psilocybin, or 2C-B in terms of psychedelic effects but is still a formidable experience in its own right.
• It is perhaps the most well-known member of the 2C-x family, which are structurally related to the classical psychedelic mescaline.
• In the United States, it gained popularity as an alternative to MDMA after the latter was classified as a Schedule I substance in 1985.
• As mentioned earlier, the only reported deaths from FLY turned out to be a completely different drug, so no true actual FLY deaths have ever been reported.
• In this article, we’ll cover everything you need to know about 2C-B — including how it works, what it feels like, and how to use it safely.

This psychedelic is particularly interesting as a recreational substance for its affinity for creating a positive, energized experience. It’s widely considered one of the best psychedelics for enhancing connection and sexual intimacy. This compound works through the same mechanism of action as most psychedelics. This is the same mechanism of action used by psilocybin, LSD, mescaline, and most other classical psychedelics. It isn’t well-known or discussed amongst regulators or 2c b fly lawmakers and is rarely listed on official prohibited substance lists. You should always test your substances using a harm-reduction drug testing kit before you take it.

-P: The Strongest Member of the 2C Family of Psychedelics

Tolerance to the effects of 2C-B is not built almost immediately after ingestion. Bromo-dragonFLY itself isn’t inherently dangerous when used at the right dose, but it’s substantially more potent than 2C-B-FLY, so the mislabelling led users into taking a dose nearly 40 times the recommended dose of this compound. The dose of 2C-B-FLY is around 20 mg, while the dose of bromo-dragonFLY is around 500 micrograms (not even 1 mg). In terms of dosage, both compounds are comparable — active in the 5 – 20 mg range, with a threshold somewhere around 5 mg.

What Is Taking 2-CB-FLY Like? Is It Fun? Safe?

In the United States, it gained popularity as an alternative to MDMA after the latter was classified as a Schedule I substance in 1985. The increasing popularity of 2C-B led to it also being placed in Schedule I in 1995.5 It saw a resurgence in interest in the 2000s, with the advent of the “research chemicals”/”designer drugs” scene and darknet markets. It is highly advised to use harm reduction practices if using this substance.

(PERSONAL EXPERIENCE, NOT RECOMMENDATIONS)

When taken at the same dose, 2C-B is going to be a bit stronger in terms of the visuals, but 2C-B-FLY has stronger effects on the body. There are some user reports of people taking much larger doses — closer to 40 mg — but this is only recommended if you have a lot of experience with this psychedelic. The main problem encountered when taking too much 2C-B-FLY is overheating and dehydration. FLY started to gain some popularity among research chemical users and experimenters back in 2005, the reasons for which are unknown, but then largely disappeared in 2009 after a batch of mislabeled FLY caused two deaths. The drug that is reported to have actually caused these deaths was Bromo-DragonFLY, which is a completely different drug that is taken in doses of micrograms, rather than milligrams.

-B-FLY: Is It The Best Psychedelic For Arousal & Sexual Intimacy?

2C-B is a scheduled drug in most jurisdictions.52 The following is a partial list of territories where the substance has been scheduled. Exposing compounds to the reagents gives a colour change which is indicative of the compound under test. With Mescaline, I had the impression to add to something very deep old, something new, colored, vibrant, as if I had made an old man laugh and showing him a child who makes faces, this mixture is anachronistic, a strange marriage out of time.

Both 2C-B and mescaline are thought of as being “gentle” when compared to other psychedelics and the visuals are very similar between the two. When various government regulators started banning 2C-B, they did so by banning the entire 2C-x family — as defined by the chemical structure above. All 2C- substances contain methoxy groups on the 2 and 5 positions of a benzene ring of its chemical structure. They each have a unique chemical group attached to the 4th position on the benzene ring, which is what differentiates them in terms of their chemical structure and effect profile. Most of them were invented around the same time by Alexander Shulgin and documented in one of his books PiHKAL. Testing 2C-B is very easy to do, it’s cheap, and it only requires you to sacrifice trace amounts of your tablet or powder — only a sample the size of a grain of sand is necessary to run the safety tests that could save your life.
