“Cathinone were originally sold over the internet as ‘legal’ alternatives to drugs like speed, ecstasy and cocaine,” the Talk to Frank website explains. “To avoid trouble with the police, sellers marked the cathinone they were selling as ‘not for human consumption’, and sold them as plant food or bath salts.”
Most cathinone are found as either a fine white, off-white or yellowish powder, but some can be brown in color. Cathinone – like monkey dust – are usually snorted or wrapped in paper and swallowed. They can also be found as capsules or pills and can be smoked. Buy MDPHP Online

Monkey Dust is usually smoked. It may also be snorted, parachuted (swallowed, e.g. in a gelcap or wrapped in rolling paper), boofed (inserted rectally, dissolved in a little water) or slammed (injected intravenously). Buy MDPHP Online
The substance MDPHP has the distinctive property of being available in two different forms: as a freebase or hydrochloride salt (HCl). Because the freebase is insoluble in water and tends to clog mucous membranes, it isn’t suitable for snorting or booting.
What are the physical risks of taking monkey dust?
Although cathinone – like monkey dust – can induce feelings of euphoria as well as increasing alertness and talkativeness, there are a lot of risks, too.
“Monkey dust can carry a number of serious physical risks to our body that can cause short and long-term damage,” says Dr Carney.
These can include, but are not limited to:
- Cardiovascular issues, such as an increased heart rate, higher blood pressure and angina (chest pain caused by reduced blood flow to the heart muscles). All of which can lead to heart attacks, strokes or other long-term health problems
- Breathing problems, including chest pain or shortness of breath
- Kidney damage, which in some cases may lead to kidney failure, if enough of the substance is consumed
- Gastric distress, including nausea, vomiting or abdominal pain
“While these are just some of the physical risks that come with using monkey dust, it is important to note that the severity of these can vary hugely depending on a number of factors,” adds Dr Carney. “These include the health of the user, how the substance is taken and what dosage is used.” Buy MDPHP Online
What are the mental health risks of taking monkey dust?
“As well as physical risks, consuming monkey dust can carry extreme mental risks, which can last long after the drug has worn off,” Dr Carney explains.
These again can include, but are not limited to:
- Feelings of anxiety and depression, that may persist even once the effects of the drug have worn off
- Problems with the cognitive function of the brain, including memory loss and poor decision-making or lack of control
- Suicidal behaviors and thoughts
- Psychotic behaviors including hallucinations and paranoia
“When it comes to monkey dust, the mental risks associated with the substance can be extremely severe,” Dr Carney emphasizes. “This is because, when consumed, it can produce a very pronounced euphoric high that interferes with the brain’s natural system that regulates motivation and our emotions. When this happens, it can cause the user to act aggressively and violently, or causes them to have no control over their behavior. This is why we have seen cases of people acting erratically in recent months.” Buy MDPHP Online
