Use and effects

In his book PiHKAL (Phenethylamines I Have Known and Loved), Alexander Shulgin listed the dose range as 100 to 160 mg orally and its duration as approximately 3 to 6 hours.[1] He describes MDOH as being very psychedelic and producing increased pleasure in beauty and nature.[1] Shulgin also mentioned several negative side effects also seen with MDMA ("Ecstasy") such as difficulty urinating and internal dryness.[1] He has noted that the properties and effects of MDOH are very similar or near-identical to those of MDA and that MDOH might be converted into MDA in the body.[1]
