2C-B is a hallucinogenic drug first synthesised by Alexander Shulgin in 1974. Its effects are considered to be somewhere between those of LSD and MDMA and vary greatly depending on the dose. 2C-B is available as powder, pills or capsules and is almost always taken orally due to how painful and intense it is to snort.

If taken orally, the effects of 2CB will take about 45 minutes to an hour to come on and will last from 4-8 hours (dose dependent).


Dosage will depend on a number of factors including tolerance, gender and how it’s taken (either nasally or orally). This is a guide only.

2C-B is highly dose sensitive. Lower doses will be more MDMA-like, higher doses will produce a full psychedelic experience.  Taking doses over 25 mg will greatly increase the risk of having a bad trip.

Because 2C-B is so dose sensitive we highly recommend weighing doses with scales accurate to 0.001
