Risk assessment

A sample declared as 4-MMC (mephedrone) did not contain 4-MMC, but 3-CMC (3-chloromethcathinone, clophedrone).

3-CMC is a new psychoactive substance (NPS). There is hardly any information available on the risks, side effects and long-term consequences of 3-CMC. It is assumed that 3-CMC has a high neurotoxic effect. The chemical structure is similar to that of 4-MMC (mephedrone) and is often marketed on the internet as a substitute for mephedrone.

Due to the lack of scientific studies on 3-CMC and its potentially highly neurotoxic effect, we advise against its consumption!

With powders and crystalline samples, false declarations occur again and again; therefore, be sure to have them tested before consumption!

Safer Use

Analysis

Have your substances tested in a Drug Checking

Testing

If you do not have the possibility to have substances analysed, always test a small amount to avoid overdoses.

Wait and see

Wait 2 hours after oral intake, as there are always powders / crystals in circulation with unexpected active ingredients, which can have a later onset of action.

Utensils

Always use your own sniffing utensils when applying powders nasally (sniffing) to avoid infecting yourself or others with diseases.
