Nexus nasal spray is a mild solution of 2C-B (2,5-dimethoxy-4-bromophenethylamine) salt, and distilled water. 2C-B is a psychedelic drug of the 2C family. It was first synthesised by Alexander Shulgin in 1974. It first saw use among the psychiatric community as a legal replacement for MDMA in psychedelic assisted therapy after MDMA was banned in 1985. During this time it was also marketed as an aphrodisiac under names Erox and Nexus by a German company as a small blue pill containing about 5 mg of 2C-B until it was scheduled in 1995.
2C-B has a stimulatory effect on the body and it has been known to enhance everything from sex to the enjoyment of music. It is molecularly similar to mescaline and is often compared to as a combination of LSD and MDMA. In Shulgin’s book PiHKAL, the psychoactive dosage range is listed as 12–24 mg. Nexus can also be combined with many other substances to provide a glow such as during an MDMA experience, or to boost a 2C-B journey.
This product is intended to be used as a convenient form of microdosing or for use as a novel aphrodisiac. As a “classic” psychedelic it is ideal for microdosing. Nasal sprays are simple to use and provide an effective way to deliver accurately measured doses in the simplest way possible. As an aphrodisiac, Nexus offers an effective means of increasing libido and enjoyment of sex when used as directed.
2C-B typically takes a long time to activate when ingested orally, between 45 minutes to an 1 ½ hours. Oral use produces an experience lasting between 2 – 4 hours. The nasal route of administration activates much more rapidly (3 -5 minutes) and has a much shorter duration. Be forewarned that 2C-B may irritate the sinuses momentarily when insufflated, but this spray has is formulated to overcome much of the discomfort of insufflating 2C-B
Usage: For best results apply the applicator to your nostril, pull the plunger smartly as you inhale. It’s similar to using any nasal decongestant product. After use, clean the applicator with an alcohol wipe and replace the plastic cap. Store in a dark cool place when not in use.
If the plunger gets clogged, remove it from the bottle and pump warm water through it until the spray runs freely again and reattach the spray mechanism to the bottle. If you see sediment in the bottle, gently warm the bottle and shake vigorously.
Microdosing – for a microdose, apply one spray each day you intend to microdose. As a classic psychedelic, it is an ideal substitute for LSD or psilocybin as a microdose substance. You should not notice any psychoactive effects as it is well below the 12 mg threshold. Each spray delivers approximately 1.1 mg of 2C-B.
Aphrodisiac – For use as an aphrodisiac, try 3-4 sprays, the equivalent of 3.3 to 4.4 mg of 2C-B. Let it take effect and see how you feel. At this dose you may feel slight discomfort in your nasal passages. After a minute you can irrigate your sinuses with a saline solution. You may notice a stimulatory effect and some sensations in your body. Apply another spray after 5 minutes if you feel you need more.
Caution If you are taking pharmaceuticals or supplements, consult a pharmacist or medical professional who can advise you on safe combinations. Not recommended for people with mental health issues such as epilepsy, bipolar, or schizophrenia
