2C-G-N

From WikiMD's Food, Medicine & Wellness Encyclopedia

2C-G-N is a psychedelic drug and phenethylamine of the 2C family. It was first synthesized by Alexander Shulgin and is used for its psychoactive effects.

History[edit | edit source]

2C-G-N was first synthesized by Alexander Shulgin. In his book PiHKAL, Shulgin lists the dosage as 20-30 mg and the duration as 18–30 hours. He describes 2C-G-N as having a slow onset and a long duration of action, with the effects being significantly more profound and intense than those of its analogs, 2C-G and 2C-G-3.

Pharmacology[edit | edit source]

Like other 2C drugs, 2C-G-N is a serotonin receptor agonist. However, the exact mechanism of action is not fully understood. It is thought to work by increasing the release of serotonin in the brain, which can lead to various psychoactive effects.

Effects[edit | edit source]

The effects of 2C-G-N are highly dose-dependent and can vary significantly among individuals. Some common effects reported by users include visual hallucinations, enhanced sensory perception, and altered thought patterns. At higher doses, the effects can become more intense and can include ego dissolution, time distortion, and profound introspective experiences.

Legal Status[edit | edit source]

The legal status of 2C-G-N varies by country. In the United States, it is considered a Schedule I drug under the Controlled Substances Act. This means it is illegal to manufacture, buy, possess, or distribute without a license from the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA).
