Another commenter pointed out the jist and carcinogenic nature of them. There’s been many recalls in actually OTC and prescribed drugs due to them.

But it’s mainly due to the “dimethlyamine” portion of DMT. It’s a tertiary amine, but those can form nitrosamines in some conditions. It’s mainly the synthesis of it that may make it more at risk. There’s potential with a secondary amine in the presence of oxidizing agents. But I guess somewhat low looking at the potential synthetic routes.

Although with the amount people do and (probably the lack of frequency) it’s probably fine.

Even better if it’s extracted from a plant (but can still pose a nitrosamine risk depending on solvents used to extract the DMT).

My earlier deleted comment was due to me not clicking reply on your post… Just on the of one. Sorry.

A community to discuss Cosmic Horror in it’s many forms; books, films, comics, art, TV, music, RPGs, video games etc.

“cosmic horror… is a subgenre of horror fiction and weird fiction that emphasizes the horror of the unknowable and incomprehensible more than gore or other elements of shock… themes of cosmic dread, forbidden and dangerous knowledge, madness, non-human influences on humanity, religion and superstition, fate and inevitability, and the risks associated with scientific discoveries… the sense that ordinary life is a thin shell over a reality that is so alien and abstract in comparison that merely contemplating it would damage the sanity of the ordinary person, insignificance and powerlessness at the cosmic scale…”
