Summary
Very little human data exist. All dosage estimates are extrapolated from closely related cathinones such as pentedrone and pentylone, a handful of Reddit and Bluelight reports, and forensic potency modelling. Users describe rapid, clean stimulation with mild empathogenic warmth, stronger on dopamine and norepinephrine than serotonin.
Dose Information
Dose basis. Dose ranges are compiled primarily from community user reports and extrapolation from closely related cathinones (e.g., pentedrone/pentylone). Individual sensitivity varies widely with NPS stimulants; start low and avoid rapid redosing. Insufflation of cathinones is frequently described as caustic and irritating; use extreme caution, minimize frequency, and rinse nasal passages with isotonic saline after use. Multiple community reports of harshness exist for similar cathinones/pyrovalerones. (Dose figures and this note are from Drugs.Wiki.)
| ROA | Light | Common | Strong | Heavy |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Oral | 15-30mg | 30-60mg | 60-90mg | 90mg+ |
| Insufflated | 10-20mg | 20-40mg | 40-60mg | 60mg+ |
| Rectal | 12-25mg | 25-45mg | 45-70mg | 70mg+ |
Onset, Duration & After-effects

| Insufflated | 5-30 min | 15-30 min | 1-2.5 hrs | 1-2 hrs | 2.33-5.5 hrs |
| Rectal | 10-20 min | 20-40 min | 1-2.5 hrs | 1-2 hrs | 2.5-5.5 hrs |

Add to PsychonautWiki Journal
The PsychonautWiki Journal logging app doesn't include every substance. To track 3,4-TMPD there, start adding an ingestion, search for the name, and choose to add it as a custom substance. Paste these values:

Start low, go slow, and test your substances.
Tip: for quicker logging you can also add a Custom Unit in the app, e.g. common dose ~ 45 mg (Oral).
The app keeps custom substances simple, so the full dose ranges live in the description text above. Ranges are harm-reduction guidance, not a prescription.
Tolerance
Tolerance Decay
Acute tolerance: develops within a single session โ the reset numbers above apply after sustained heavy use, not after one binge. Within-session tachyphylaxis usually resets largely overnight.
