F-22 (psychedelic)

Chemical structure of F-22

F-22 is a psychedelic drug that belongs to the phenethylamine class of compounds. It is a member of the 2C family of psychedelics, which are known for their hallucinogenic and entheogenic properties. F-22 is a relatively obscure substance, with little information available about its effects, dosage, and toxicity.

Chemistry[edit | edit source]

F-22 is a substituted phenethylamine, meaning it is a phenethylamine molecule that has been chemically modified. It is structurally related to other psychedelic phenethylamines such as 2C-B and 2C-I. The exact chemical name of F-22 is 2-(2,5-dimethoxy-4-fluorophenyl)ethanamine.

Pharmacology[edit | edit source]

Like other 2C drugs, F-22 is thought to act primarily as a 5-HT2A receptor agonist. The 5-HT2A receptor is a subtype of the serotonin receptor, which is involved in a variety of functions including mood, cognition, and perception. Activation of this receptor is believed to be responsible for the hallucinogenic effects of many psychedelic drugs.

Effects[edit | edit source]

The effects of F-22 are not well-documented due to its obscurity and lack of use in humans. However, based on its chemical structure and mechanism of action, it is likely that its effects would be similar to those of other 2C drugs. These may include visual and auditory hallucinations, altered perception of time and space, enhanced introspection, and emotional amplification.

Safety[edit | edit source]

As with all psychedelic drugs, the use of F-22 carries potential risks. These may include psychological distress, dangerous behavior due to impaired judgment, and potential long-term mental health effects. Due to the lack of research on F-22, its specific toxicity and safety profile are unknown.

Legal status[edit | edit source]

The legal status of F-22 varies by country. In many jurisdictions, it is considered a controlled substance due to its potential for abuse and its similarity to other regulated psychedelic drugs.
