History & Culture
Allylescaline was first documented in the scientific literature by Czech chemist Otakar Leminger in 1972. The compound received broader attention when American chemist Alexander Shulgin synthesized and characterized its psychoactive effects, publishing his findings in the 1991 book PiHKAL: A Chemical Love Story. In PiHKAL, Shulgin described allylescaline's subjective effects and established dosage parameters based on his bioassay methodology. The compound remained relatively obscure for over two decades following PiHKAL's publication. It emerged on the research chemical market in 2013, when it was identified as a novel designer drug being sold online. This appearance prompted regulatory responses in several countries during the mid-2010s.

Toxicity
PsychonautWikiThe toxicity and long-term health effects of recreational allylescaline use do not seem to have been studied in any scientific context and the exact toxic dose is unknown. This is because allylescaline is a research chemical with very little history of human usage. Anecdotal evidence from people within the psychonaut community who have tried allylescaline suggests that there are no negative health effects attributed to simply trying the drug by itself at low to moderate doses and using it very sparingly (but nothing can be completely guaranteed). 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 harm reduction practices when using this drug.

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.
