BOD (4-methyl-2,5,β-trimethoxyphenethylamine) is a lesser-known psychedelic drug. It is the beta-methoxy analog of 2C-D and was first synthesized by Alexander Shulgin. In his book PiHKAL, the dosage range is listed as 15–25 mg with a duration of 8–16 hours.[1] Its reported effects include mild open-eye and moderate closed-eye alterations in visual perception, enhancement of conversation and sense of humor, and unpleasant physical effects such as nausea and lethargy. Very little data exists about the pharmacological properties, metabolism, and toxicity of BOD.
BOD is unscheduled in the United States, but purchase, sale, or possession for human consumption could be prosecuted under the Federal Analogue Act.[2]
This substance is a Class A drug in the Drugs controlled by the UK Misuse of Drugs Act.[3]
