Can MDMA be effectively Smoked?

[Fantasian]

I tried using the forum search engine for this but without much avail.

Does anyone know anything about the effectiveness and effects of smoking MDMA crystal?

Looking for information on
Ease
Effectiveness
Availablity
Duration

There are very few reports on this, although i did find a report on Erowid:

My thoughts are that smoking MDMA would bring cause swiy to come up much quicker than with an oral dose. However, I also think its likely that the effects would not last as long and perhaps not be as intense.

As for ease... its easy just put the MDMA in a joint or rollie, if swiy has MDMA in pill form be more careful cuz of the binders (some of that shit is worse to smoke i think).

Avaliabilty? don't know what you mean

Swiy could try this out on his guinea pig and tell us what happened?

As swim has not tried this himself please anyone feel free to correct him on any point.

if SWIBL wuz you, he wouldn;t smoke MDMA, if i'm correct, that would be pretty toxix and who knows maybe it causes some cancer for SWIY. not a good idea

who knows, maybe it cures cancer.

MDMA HCl is not smokable. The temperature required to vaporize it will destroy the molecules. In theory, MDMA freebase is smokable, but not really - in freebase form, MDMA is a highly caustic oil.

Just thinking logically - if MDMA were smokable, there would be lots of reports around about the effects.

things are not black and white:
radiation treats cancer but it is still harmful
Btw did you know alcohol can be used to treat some cancer?

Not neccesarily, just because something isnt widely reported doesnt mean it isn't possible.

It is true that my statement was a surmise. But really, take a look at some of the more popular drug discussion boards. You'll find eager kids who will try snorting, IVing, plugging or smoking anything that doesn't move and posting about it. MDMA is an extremely popular drug, and it is one that people tend to treat hedonistically. I'd wager that hundreds, if not thousands of people have tried smoking MDMA. If smoking MDMA worked, one would assuredly have heard about it by now.

All a moot point as it is a chemical impossibility.

SWIM has attempted to smoke about half a pill but with no noticable effect (pill definately contained MDMA). although he had a friend who said it was possible and he had done it which is why SWIM tried it in the 1st place.

If it were to decompose - even partially - to things resembling the precursor - iso-safrole - remember this: Iso-Safrole has been shown to be a powerful hepatotoxin* likely to be carcinogenic.

Read: Don't.

With respect, your post is irrelevant to the question. The thread title was "can it be effectively smoked?". SWIM wouldn't normally point this out, but one of his "pet hates" is asking a question like 'is it possible to ______ with _____' and getting answers like "you might DIE!!!! what are you doing! you're an idiot for risking your health like this!!!!".

SWIFantasian's question was a hypothetical "could someone smoke MDMA?", it was not "I'm going to smoke MDMA, is this a good idea?".

With all respect that a high-post-count-moderator deserves, if you have no input into wether or not MDMA can be effectively smoked, please stay off the thread, or if you feel the compulsion to post, don't pretend that you're answering the question and clearly state that your post was sensational and irrelevant, so as not to confuse any people who might want to read the posts on this thread in their proper context.

Then the answer is no. MDMA hydrochloride would sinter - not vaporize. As a result of the chemistry involved, it cannot be smoked. It would decompose from such.

I am sure there are those who would disagree and claim it being effective. But I have a word for those: Placebo.

Happy now?

I wasn't questioning your integrity or knowledge on the subject of MDMA. In fact, if anyone were to be able to say something relevant on this topic, you'd be right up there on my list. I wasn't challenging you.

My point wasn't even really about the redundancy of your previous post. All I was trying to illustrate was that it frustrates the piss out of me when someone asks a hypothetical question about a chemical, and instead of seeing the question, someone leaps on it as an opportunity to take some moral highground and say "You're so irresponsible. I'M really fucking sensible", and manages to come away from it feeling clever even though they've added nothing to the debate.

Don't get defensive, my post wasn't meant as an attack. Peace and love, man.

SWIM suspects that most of the anecdotal evidence of smoking ecstasy is from people smoking impure pills that contain additives that actually can be smoked/vaproized (methamphetamine, ketamine, etc.).

As far as the effectiveness of smoking pure MDMA crystals, SWIM will leave that discussion up to the members who actually know a lot about the chemistry of that particular chemical.

Thanks for adding that info, as I sure wasn't able to deduct that from your wording.

Theres a difference between disagreeing with someone and attacking them.
