'''4-HO-DET''' also known as '''4-hydroxy-diethyl-tryptamine''', '''CZ-74''', or '''ethocin''' is a [[hallucinogen]]ic [[psychedelic]] drug of the [[tryptamine]] family.
This compound was first discovered in the late 1950s by [[Albert Hofmann]] and [[Franz Troxler]]<ref>http://www.google.com/patents/US3072530</ref><ref>https://www.erowid.org/archive/rhodium/pdf/psilocin.esters.pdf</ref>.

'''4-Hydroxy-N,N-diethyltryptamine''' (also known as '''4-HO-DET''', '''CZ-74''', and '''Ethocin''') is a lesser-known synthetic [[psychoactive class::psychedelic]] of the [[chemical class::tryptamine]] chemical class that produces [[psilocin]]-like [[psychedelic]] effects when [[Routes of administration|adminstered]]. 4-HO-DET is a close structural and functional analog of [[psilocin]] (4-HO-DMT), the principal psychoactive component in [[magic mushrooms]]. It is notable for sharing many of its core features while retaining subtle variations in its duration, visual, cognitive and bodily effects.
Today it is used as a recreational or [[entheogen]]ic compound through the use of online research chemical vendors. However, it remains relatively uncommon and has very little history of human usage.

Since its inception, 4-HO-DET has remained relatively uncommon and has very little documentation of human usage, with the majority of [[psychedelic]] users preferring more traditional [[psychedelics]] like the [[psilocybin]] and [[psilocin]] in [[psilocybin mushrooms]], or more recently, [[4-AcO-DMT]]. Today, it is either used as a recreational substance or an [[entheogen]], has no documentation of being sold on the streets and is primarily acquired through the use of online [[research chemical]] vendors.

{{chemistry}}
4-HO-DET, or 4-hydroxy-N,N-diethyltryptamine, is a synthetic indole alkaloid molecule of the [[tryptamine]] chemical class. Tryptamines share a core structure comprised of a bicyclic indole heterocycle attached at R<sub>3</sub> to an amino group via an ethyl side chain. 4-HO-DET is substituted at R<sub>4</sub> of its indole heterocycle with a hydroxyl functional group OH−. It also contains two ethyl chains bound to the terminal amine R<sub>N</sub> of its tryptamine backbone ([[DET]]).
4-HO-DET is the lower homolog of [[4-AcO-DET]], the N-substituted diethyl homolog of [[4-HO-DMT]] ('''psilocin''') and the 4-hydroxy analog of [[DET]].

4-HO-DET acts as a [[Serotonin#The_5-HT_System|5-HT<sub>2A</sub>]] [[Agonist#Agonists|partial agonist]]. The [[psychedelic]] effects are believed to come from 4-HO-DET's efficacy at the 5-HT<sub>2A</sub> receptors. However, the role of these interactions and how they result in the psychedelic experience continues to remain elusive.
As with its structurally related tryptamines, 4-HO-DET principally acts as a [[Serotonin#The_5-HT_system|5-HT<sub>2A</sub>]] [[Agonist#Agonists|partial agonist]], through which it exerts its psychedelic effects.{{citation needed}}
However, the role of these interactions and how they result in the psychedelic experience continues to remain an object of scientific elucidation.

The effects listed below are based upon the [[subjective effects index]] and personal experiences of [[PsychonautWiki]] [[Special:TopUsers|contributors]]. The listed effects will rarely (if ever) occur all at once, but heavier dosages will increase the chances and are more likely to induce a full range of effects.
In comparison to other isolated synthetic [[tryptamine]] compounds such as [[4-AcO-DMT]] and [[4-HO-DMT]], [[4-HO-DET]] has been reported as being similar in terms of its visual, cognitive and physical effects, albeit with a slightly longer duration, less in the way of bodily effects, and more "synthetic" or "algorithmic"-style visuals.
===Physical effects===
The physical effects of 4-HO-DET can be broken down into several components which progressively intensify proportional to dosage. These are described below and generally include:
*'''[[Effect::Excessive yawning]]''' - This effect seems to be uniquely pronounced among psilocin and related tryptamines. It can occur to a lesser degree on LSD and very rarely on psychedelic phenethylamines like mescaline. It typically occurs in combination with watery eyes. However, many anecdotal reports suggest that this component is not as noticeable compared to the aforementioned psychedelics
*'''[[Effect::Watery eyes]]'''
*'''[[Effect::Frequent urination]]'''
*'''[[Effect::Muscle contractions]]'''
*'''[[Effect::Olfactory hallucination]]'''
*'''[[Effect::Pupil dilation]]'''

|{{effects/cognitive|
The cognitive effects of 4-HO-DET can be described as mildly more stimulating and lucid in style when compared to other similar psychedelics such as [[psilocybin]] or [[2C-C]] which tend to be more sedating. It has also been characterized as possessing a more "neutral", "analytical" headspace with minimal memory disruptions or emotional confusion compared to [[psilocybin mushrooms]].
The most prominent of these typical effects generally include:
*'''[[Effect::Analysis enhancement]]'''
*'''[[Effect::Conceptual thinking]]'''

===Auditory effects===
}}
The auditory effects of 4-HO-DET are common in their occurrence and exhibit a full range of effects which commonly includes:
The toxicity and long-term health effects of recreational 4-HO-DET use do not seem to have been studied in any scientific context and the exact toxic dose is unknown. This is because 4-HO-DET is a research chemical with very little history of human usage. Anecdotal evidence from people within the psychedelic community who have tried 4-HO-DET suggests that there are no negative health effects attributed to simply trying this drug at low to moderate doses or using it very sparingly (but nothing can be completely guaranteed).

The toxicity and long-term health effects of recreational 4-HO-DET use do not seem to have been studied in any scientific context and the exact [[Toxicity::toxic dose is unknown]]. This is because 4-HO-DET is a [[research chemical]] with very little history of human usage. Anecdotal evidence from people within the psychonaut community who have tried 4-HO-DET suggests that there are no negative health effects attributed to simply trying the substance by itself at low to moderate doses and using it sparingly (but nothing can be completely guaranteed). [https://www.google.com/ Independent research] should always be done to ensure that a combination of two or more substances is safe before consumption.
It is strongly recommended that one use [[responsible drug use|harm reduction practices]] when using this substance.
===Tolerance and addiction potential===
===Tolerance and addiction potential===
4-HO-DET is non-habit forming and the desire to use it can actually decrease with use. It is most often self-regulating.
4-HO-DET is [[Addiction potential::not habit-forming]] and the desire to use it can actually decrease with use. It is most often self-regulating.
An almost immediate tolerance is built to 4-HO-DET after ingestion, preventing one from experiencing its full effects more often than every 4-7 days unless they increase their dose significantly.
Tolerance to the effects of 4-HO-DET is built [[Time to full tolerance::almost immediately after ingestion]]. After that, it takes about [[Time to half tolerance::3 days]] for the tolerance to be reduced to half and [[Time to zero tolerance::7 days]] to be back at baseline (in the absence of further consumption). 4-HO-DET presents cross-tolerance with [[Cross-tolerance::all [[psychedelic]]s]], meaning that after the consumption of 4-HO-DET all psychedelics will have a reduced effect.

It is notable for sharing many of its core features while retaining subtle variations in its duration, visual, cognitive and bodily effects.
This compound was first discovered in the late 1950s by Albert Hofmann and Franz Troxler[1][2] in their investigation of various psychedelic compounds that were structurally and chemically related to the principle active components he isolated from magic mushrooms, psilocybin (4-PO-DMT) and psilocin (4-HO-DMT).

Disclaimer: The effects listed below cite the Subjective Effect Index (SEI), an open research literature based on anecdotal user reports and the personal analyses of PsychonautWikicontributors. As a result, they should be viewed with a healthy degree of skepticism.
It is also worth noting that these effects will not necessarily occur in a predictable or reliable manner, although higher doses are more liable to induce the full spectrum of effects. Likewise, adverse effects become increasingly likely with higher doses and may include addiction, severe injury, or death ☠.

Dangerous interactions
Warning:Many psychoactive substances that are reasonably safe to use on their own can suddenly become dangerous and even life-threatening when combined with certain other substances. The following list provides some known dangerous interactions (although it is not guaranteed to include all of them).
Always conduct independent research (e.g. Google, DuckDuckGo, PubMed) to ensure that a combination of two or more substances is safe to consume. Some of the listed interactions have been sourced from TripSit.
[[Wikipedia:Lithium_(medication)|DangerousInteraction::Lithium]] - Lithium is commonly prescribed for the treatment of bipolar disorder. There is a large body of anecdotal evidence that suggests taking it with psychedelics significantly increases the risk of psychosis and seizures. As a result, this combination is strictly discouraged.
"[[UncertainInteraction" contains a listed "[" character as part of the property label and has therefore been classified as invalid.]] - Cannabis may have an unexpectedly strong and unpredictable synergy with the effects of 4-HO-DET. Caution is advised with this combination as it can significantly increase the risk of adverse psychological reactions like anxiety, paranoia, panic attacks, and psychosis. Users are advised to start off with only a fraction of their normal cannabis dose and take long breaks between hits to avoid unintentional overdose.
"[[UnsafeInteraction" contains a listed "[" character as part of the property label and has therefore been classified as invalid.]] - Tramadol is well-documented to lower the seizure threshold[4] and psychedelics may act to trigger seizures in susceptible individuals.[citation needed]
