4 ACO DMT​

4 ACO DMT​ is a synthetic tryptamine that doesn’t occur naturally in mushrooms.  It’s known as synthetic psilocybin because it converts into psilocin when metabolized in the human body

4-AcO-DMT AKA synthetic shrooms is a prodrug of the active ingredient psilocin found in magic mushrooms

The experience is almost indistinguishable from the effects of magic mushrooms except for a few subtle differences.

4-AcO-DMT stands for 4-Acetoxy-DMT and is a derivative of psilocin. Both psilocybin and 4-aco-dmt are converted to psilocin by the liver which then induces the psychoactive effects.

As such, the effects 4-aco-dmt are very identical to those of dried magic mushrooms.

4-AcO-DMT Effects and Potency

As earlier mentioned, 4-aco-dmt mimics the effects of magic mushrooms.

In lower doses (<30 mg), 4 ACO DMT​ and magic mushrooms are indistinguishable. It produces auditory and visual hallucinations, enhances introspection and existential thought processes, , and alters the perception of time and sensory information.

In higher doses (>30 mg), the effects of 4-AcO-DMT begin to change. This dose is very powerful and is much more similar to DMT. The visuals become much more fractal and geometric, and the hallucinations and sense of empathy and introspection become very intense.

The existential weight of this substance, especially in higher doses, is one of the main reasons why so many people only use this drug once. High doses of 4-AcO-DMT are much more likely to cause terrifying or uncomfortable trips than high doses of magic mushrooms, but it isn’t clear why this is the case.

How long does 4-AcO-DMT Last?

The main difference between 4 ACO DMT​ and magic mushrooms is the duration of effects. It lasts for 2-6 hours, and only in rare cases will it last up to 8 hours like magic mushrooms.

If you take 4-AcO-DMT on an empty stomach or snort the powder rather than consume it as a capsule, the effects are going to begin and end sooner.

If you insufflate (snort) the powder, the effects come on within about 15 minutes, reach peak effect by the 1-hour mark, and taper off over the following 2 or 3 hours.

4-AcO-DMT Dosage

One of the main advantages of 4-AcO-DMT is the reliability of its effects. Since this a pure compound with fast metabolism, the potency of effects is much easier to gauge than the more natural psychedelics.

The general dose of 4 ACO DMT​ ranges from 10 to 30 mg. Some people take less (microdose), others take more (heroic dose). A 20 mg dose is roughly equivalent (subjectively) to 3 grams of dried psilocybin mushrooms.

If you’re new to using 4-AcO-DMT, it’s wise to start on the low-end of the spectrum and increase gradually over time.
