Summary
ALEPH-6 is an extremely rare research chemical from Alexander Shulgin's PiHKAL with minimal human data. At 40mg oral, Shulgin described it as producing only threshold effects that were 'hopelessly compromised,' and no higher doses were explored. The compound was considered a disappointment with uncertain activity.
Perspectives
“I had an alert at the one hour point, and in another hour there was a clear 1+. There was a not well defined, gentle un-worldliness. And it was still there quite unchanged twelve hours later. In a group I find that all voices about me are of equal intensity and equal importance. But this is not at all distracting. This will be a long lived thing for sure.”

Add to PsychonautWiki Journal
The PsychonautWiki Journal logging app doesn't include every substance. To track ALEPH-6 there, start adding an ingestion, search for the name, and choose to add it as a custom substance. Paste these values:
ALEPH-6 Source: SubstanceSearch (substancesearch.com) Oral dose (mg): threshold 40 · light Insufficient data Oral duration: onset 1-3h · peak 3-6h · offset 2-4h · total 6-13h · after-effects 24h Note: ranges are harm-reduction guidance, not a prescription. Start low, go slow, and test your substances.
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 — the reset numbers above apply after sustained heavy use, not after one binge. Within-session tachyphylaxis usually resets largely overnight.
Pattern extrapolated from classical serotonergic psychedelics: acute tolerance develops rapidly and decays over ~1–2 weeks. Use spacing of ≥10–14 days to minimize cross‑tolerance. Data for ALEPH‑6 specifically are absent; values are heuristic.
