Description
Eutylone powder
Eutylone is an empathogenic stimulant and substituted cathinone, mainly used as a substitute for other drugs that have already been scheduled and banned, like ephylone and ethylene. It was first synthesized in a lab in the mid-60s, and a patent was subsequently applied for in the UK by Boehringer Ingelheim.
What does eutylone look like?
Eutylone appears primarily as larger crystals/rocks with a cloudy, brownish hue. These crystals can be broken up and encased in gel tablets to make them easy to eat. According to drug use reports, the substance itself tastes bitter.
The street prices are very low because it is not a popular or widespread drug. However, users are noticing it in the recreational market.
Eutylone effects

Abuse
As of September 2021, eutylone is classified as a Schedule I positional isomer of pentylone via the Controlled Substances Act. That means it has a high potential for abuse and addiction. However, recreational users cheaply buy and consume it for weeks.
Tolerance may or may not develop, but most available data points toward some tolerance level over two or more weeks. Repeated eutylone use can lead to a substance use disorder (SUD), and medical professionals don’t recommend it. It is also a market replacement for ethylone, another substituted cathinone in the same drug family.
