Methylone (Explosion, bk-MDMA, Ease, m1) dosages are not well documented in the literature and the following dosages are based on a submission by Winta and reports gathered by Erowid. Methylone is generally available as pure crystals and rarely, if ever, pressed into tablets. As one contributor notes, "The most reasonable dosage recommendation for such a poorly documented substance would be 'none at all', but since this advice is unlikely to be taken seriously." The variability in response reported
is reason for special concern and should be taken seriously by those considering ingesting methylone.
Dosages vary considerably between individuals, with some methylone users reporting that they "never" exceed 100mg, while others report "barely reaching" threshold at 200mg.
Oral Methylone Dosages ( tentative ) |
| Threshold | 60 - 120 mg |
| Light | 100 - 150 mg |
| Common | 100 - 250 mg |
| Strong | 160 - 270 mg |
| Heavy | 250 + mg |
|
Onset : 15 - 60 minutes
Duration : 2 - 3.5 hours
Normal After Effects : 6 - 24 hours

Some respondents say that increasing dose with methylone beyond 100-180mg causes increased
physical effects and does not substantially improve the empathic cognitive effects.
Insufflated dosages appear to be slightly lower than oral dosages.
Stimulation / Sedation
Some have reported worrying heart rate and blood pressure increases at doses over 180-200mg.
While some people report stimulation, there are also reports of seemingly paradoxical sedation effects.
We have one report of a male who found it took over 250mg of material to approach the bottom of a 'common' dose and found 300mg to be "just right" and the same material affected others at more common doses.
Boosting / Bumping
Methylone is sometimes used with a larger "attack" dose (first dose) and then smaller "bumps"
to maintain the effects for a longer period. These bumps are taken orally or insufflated and
are often around 30 - 100mg oral and 20-80mg insufflated.
A third-to-half-dose redose usually extends the duration for another hour, a full-dose redose
often extends the duration for another 1-2 hours. Some say that taking a booster dose
more than 2 hours after the initial dose will not result in extending the desired effects.
Every individual reacts differently to every chemical.

resources and should not be construed as recommendations. Individuals can respond
differently to the same dosage. What is safe for one can be deadly for another.
