New Party Drug Foxy Methoxy

By: Ingrid Sure

Foxy Methoxy or 5-MeO-DIPT has proven to be quite interesting as a recreational substance. We believe that 5-MeO-DIPT has been given the name “Foxy Methoxy” as it pleasantly enhances tactile sensation in most users.

At this time, as a research chemical, 5-MeO-DIPT is not illegal in the United States. Foxy should be white or tan in appearance. Since it is an indole alkaloid derivative, it has a strong indole smell and taste which most people find very unpleasant. Like other related substances, foxy combines with nerve receptors and liberates serotonin. As many people know by now, serotonin or 5-hydroxytryptamine, is a neurotransmitter involved with sleep, pleasure, depression, and memory.

Foxy’s onset, duration, and effects vary according to your metabolism and neurochemistry. Other factors that may affect the trip: whether or not you have a full stomach (fasting for at least 12 hours prior is recommended); psychological/emotional state you are experiencing when you dose; the environment it is taken in, etc. These variables are true of all psychedelics. Generally, the effects build for roughly 2 hours, at which point the peak is reached, and then there is a gradual wearing off that lasts for about five hours.

Foxy appears to be a drug that is fairly safe and may have potential for therapeutic applications. It definitely deserves more research.

Dosage 5-MeO-DIPT is an extremely potent material making careful measurement an absolute must. Without a scale, it can be very easy to overdose. It is not a good idea to "eyeball" a dose of this substance, as the dose-to-response curve is extremely steep.

When taken orally at low doses (5-10mg), 5-MeO-DIPT induces a warm, pleasant state in which tactile and aural sensations may be enhanced. Many people have commented that at this dosage range, Foxy possesses amazing aphrodisiac qualities - enhancing the libido significantly. Increasing the dosage beyond the 10mg mark, athletes report the effects become increasingly psychedelic, producing vivid visuals and mental phenomenon similar to LSD or Psilocybe mushrooms. Taking over 25mg at once could prove to be highly dangerous.

Booster Doses Bodybuilders have reported taking booster doses to prolong the effects. Since tolerance does not develop significantly until after the peak of the trip, athletes report that the optimal time for a booster dose is just prior to the onset of the peak.

Side Effects: Fortunately, bodybuilders have not reported many side effects from Foxy. Some have reported insomnia following the trip while others reported nausea sometimes accompanied by vomiting. This can be avoided by fasting for twelve hours prior to ingestion and possibly using Loperamide -- the active ingredient in anti-diarrhea medications like Immodium.

As with all mind-altering substances, certain common-sense precautions exist with this drug. Do not drive a car; operate heavy machinery, etc. while under its influence. It should not be used if you are pregnant, nursing, or not of a mature emotional level. Those with pre-existing medical or psychological conditions should also avoid this drug.

Users have reported developing a tolerance to Foxy after taking it. If one does not wait about a week before using this substance again, the effects will be barely felt, or more will be required to produce the same effect.

At present, 5-MeO-DIPT has caused no human deaths.
