4 -HO-DMT
What is 4-HO-DMT?

  • The full name: 4-hydroxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine

  • It’s the active psychedelic compound in magic mushrooms — also called psilocin.

  • When you eat mushrooms, your body converts psilocybin into 4-HO-DMT — so taking 4-HO-DMT directly just skips the conversion step.

  • It’s a synthetic or isolated version of the compound, usually a fine powder.

​

At 10 mg, this is roughly equal to eating 2–2.5 grams of dried Psilocybe cubensis mushrooms, but cleaner and more predictable.

Why would you take 4-HO-DMT instead of mushrooms?

Clear Capsule: 120mg standard journey dose Blue Capsule (Booster) 60-70mg

​​

  • Precision: You know exactly how many milligrams you’re taking.

  • Cleaner: No plant material to digest, less nausea & body load.

  • Shorter: A little faster, sharper onset and shorter total trip (4–6 hours instead of 6–8).

How do you use it?

Form:

  • Typically a fine powder or crystal, often the fumarate or HCl salt.

  • Weigh it with a milligram scale accurate to 0.001g — do not eyeball.


Route:

  • Orally (capsule or mixed in water): most common, and best for 10 mg.

  • Intranasal or sublingual is possible but harsher, unnecessary at this dose.

  • Smoking or injecting is not recommended.

Preparation:

  • Find a calm, safe environment (indoors, soft lighting, cozy space).

  • Fast lightly beforehand — don’t eat a heavy meal within ~2 hours.

  • Have water, a blanket, and maybe some calming music on hand.

  • Turn off your phone or set it to Do Not Disturb.

  • Optional: a sober sitter if it’s your first time.

What happens at 10 mg?

  • Onset: ~20–40 minutes — body feels light or heavy, visual textures emerge.

  • Peak: ~1–2.5 hours — flowing visuals, emotional openness, creative or spiritual insights.

  • Duration: ~4–5 hours of noticeable effects, fading by ~6 hours.

  • Body: Light & clean for most people, maybe a little jittery at the start.

  • Mind: Expansive, reflective, can feel euphoric, introspective, or a little confusing at peak.

Tips:

  • Don’t mix with alcohol or stimulants.

  • Stay hydrated but don’t overdo it.

  • If you feel overwhelmed, lie down, breathe slowly, and remind yourself it will pass.

  • If nausea occurs (rare at this dose), ginger tea or lying still helps.
