4-Acetoxy-DET (4-Acetoxy-N,N-diethyltryptamine), also known as ethacetin or ethylacybin, is a hallucinogenic tryptamine. It was first synthesized in 1958 by Albert Hofmann in the Sandoz lab. [1]

Within the body a percentage may be partially hydrolized into the free phenol 4-HO-DET. Human studies concerning the metabolic fate of this drug are however lacking.

[edit] Dosage

4-Acetoxy-DET is orally active, and dosages of 10-30 mg are common. Effects last 4-6 hours. The free base is also active when smoked in a dose range of 7-14 mg. Smoking 4-acetoxy-DET greatly speeds up the onset; peak effects are experienced within 10 minutes, and are usually over within 1 hour.
