Effects Erowid

Aggregated from 105 Erowid experience reports

Each bar shows the share of analyzed reports whose text mentions that effect — a mention is not always a first-hand experience (fear of an effect, something witnessed, or "did not happen" count too). Tap or hover any number for details. The second value is the Bluelight extractor's per-effect confidence; a dash means the row is Erowid-derived, which has no confidence measurement.

Pretty Much Zero Fun neutral exp #92198

Helluva Drug I'm 21, male, pretty basic experience with psychedelics. LSD, mushrooms, weed, opiates, a couple 2c's, DMT, MDMA. MDPV does not belong in the same category as the aforementioned substances. It is one hell of a drug, but it is by NO means recreational.

I Love This Stimulant positive exp #92092

MDPV Amazing I have purchased pure MDPV multiple times and can say it is not my favorite drug but the price and high is great. Everyone seems to hate on MDPV. I have gone through grams I came down. I have vaporized insufflated and orally.

One Hell of a Drug positive exp #86062

I had the most amazing experience on this drug. In retrospect, I would do this over and over again. I can see why it is said to be highly addictive, feeling the need to redose constantly as my friends all tried more and more of the chemical.

The Full Ride cautionary exp #90171

I sought to purchase either Prolintane HCl or MDPV to experience an uncommon stimulant with my friend Drew. MethyleneDioxyPyroValerone won. Got lucky with Prolintane HCl just once, which I predict to be the next wonder designer drug that catches on as its legal worldwide and OTC in Spain.

Got That Moxy neutral exp #89659

Very rarely do I ever feel compelled to share my experiences with masses of people, but this is one that I feel very good about. Methylenedioxypyrovalerone is pretty much unheard of in most drug cultures. I guess one could say it is the 'new kid on the block', though pyrovalerone has been on the market since the 60's.

Not Exactly a Good Time neutral exp #85947

My experiments to date with MDPV have left me feeling rather unimpressed. Its adequate for use as a stimulant and while I enjoy the primary effects of the substance, the harsh come-down usually renders the entire experience not worth the ultimate punishment.

[Erowid Note: Cannabis substitute "spice" type smoking blends, "Bath salts", "plant food", "incense", "tea" and similar products generally do not accurately list psychoactive ingredients or dosage on their packaging. Analysis has revealed that ingredients in a single product of this type may vary over time.

My First Experience With MDPV, And Beyond! Thoughts, mistakes, things that worked for me, and more! Initially intended to post on the MDPV Mega-thread, but I think it would be better off here as it is more Trip Report than General discussion/questions/info.

Mdpv Inexperienced Eyeballed Dose Discomfort At Work neutral

Hello, I have used tiny amounts of MDPV on a few occasions. I do not at the moment have 0.001g scales although they are on their way and should be with me soon. Although I do not have any scales that can measure out 10mg accurately, I felt that I could eyeball the dose on the first few occasions.
