WHAT ARE  DOx’s?



  • The DOx drug family is a group of nearly 20 different drugs of the substituted amphetamine class.

  • Despite their close relationship to amphetamine, most of these substances act as psychedelics.

  • Common members of the DOx family include DOB, DOI, DOC and DOM.

HOW ARE DOx’s USED? 



  • In their pure form all of the DOx’s are a white powder, but because they are active in such small doses they are primarily sold in pre-measured liquid or ‘blotter’ form.

  • Because of their similarity in both experience and distribution method to LSD, they are sometimes sold to unsuspecting consumers as that substance.

WHAT ARE THE
EFFECTS OF DOx’s?



    • The vast majority of the DOx’s can be classified as extremely potent, extremely long lasting psychedelics.

    • Many drugs in DOx family induce a 6-12 hour psychedelic experience, with after-effects that can last for 24-48 hours, significantly longer than most of the ‘classical’ psychedelics.

WHAT IS THE
DOSAGE OF DOx’s?



  • Almost all of the DOx drugs are sold in pre-measured ‘doses’ on either blotter paper, in liquid, or in tiny pressed ‘microdots’ (although these are increasingly rare).

  • As a powder the dose for many of the DOx chemicals is under 1mg, but can range as high as 5mg.

WHAT IS THE
DOSAGE OF DOx’s?



  • Most of the DOx chemicals are illegal and possession can result in long prison terms. Supplying them to someone else (whether or not money was exchanged) carries even longer sentences.

  • Even the DOx chemicals which are currently not scheduled could be considered ‘illegal’ if packaged or sold for human consumption under both federal and state analog acts

HARM REDUCTION
TIPS FOR DOx’s



  • Always know what you are taking. Very often DOx blotters are misrepresented as LSD. An Ehrlich's Reagent will react with LSD, but will not react with any of the DOx chemicals.

  • The DOx chemicals have often been reported to produce extreme anxiety states or panic attacks, not only while under the influence of the drug, but also for some time after (flashbacks).


  • In rare instances, members of the DOx family have caused a long-lasting perceptual disorder known as Hallucinogen Persisting Perception Disorder (HPPD).

HARM REDUCTION
TIPS FOR DOx’s



  • The DOx chemicals can impair judgment. Users should not drive or operate machinery while under the influence of any of these substances.
    • Many of the DOx chemicals can be harmful at high doses. Overdoses can cause serious vasoconstriction of the hands and feet potentially resulting in nerve damage.

  • The use of any of the DOx chemicals can be a problem for those with (or a family history of) circulatory problems, heart ailments, glaucoma, hypertension, hepatic or renal disease, aneurysm, or stroke.

WHAT IF SOMEONE IS HAVING A BAD TRIP?



  • As with all psychedelics, ‘set’ and ‘setting’ are extremely important. "Set" is the mental state a person brings to the experience, their thoughts, mood and expectations. "Setting" is the physical and social environment in which the drug is being consumed. By making sure that a person is in a good mental state and supportive location before any of the DOx drugs are used, the risk of ‘bad trips’ can be greatly mitigated.

  • Take the person to quiet surroundings
    where they feel comfortable.

  • Find a friend who can reassure them.

WHAT IF SOMEONE IS HAVING A BAD TRIP?



  • Stress to them that their panic is caused by
    the drug, and will wear off as the drug leaves their system, but with the DOx drugs this time can be up to a full day after consumption.


  • If a person has a family history of;

    CIRCULATORY PROBLEMS, HEART AILMENTS,
    GLAUCOMA, HYPERTENSION, HEPATIC OR RENAL DISEASE, ANEURYSM, STROKE,

    or if they have noticeable numbness in the extremities, seek immediate medical attention.
