Several people collapse from '2C-P' drug overdoses at Conn. concert
    #18880588 - 09/23/13 01:19 PM (10 years, 4 months ago)

http://www.therepublic.com/view/story/53d182174f724130be6bf40471b7f1ff/CT--Concert-Overdoses

MIDDLEBURY, Connecticut — Several people who collapsed at an electronic dance music concert in Connecticut apparently overdosed on a powerful new hallucinogenic drug called 2C-P, police said Sunday.

Seven people were treated for suspected overdoses Saturday night during the concert at Quassy Amusement Park in Middlebury. Four people remained hospitalized Sunday, police said. Their names and conditions weren't released.

"It was like a light switch went off," said acting Middlebury Police Chief Richard Wildman. "Four people dropped from drug overdoses almost all at the same time."

Wildman said 2C-P takes effect three to five hours after using it and can overheat the body. It's part of the "2C series" of synthetic compounds that have psychoactive and stimulant effects, are sold in blotter paper form or in dropper bottles and are sometimes mistaken for LSD, according to the Drug Enforcement Administration.

Several ambulances, state police and local police from nearby towns responded to a "mass casualty" event at the amusement park shortly after 10:30 p.m. Saturday. Wildman said officers used CPR and a defibrillator to treat a teenage male who wasn't breathing and had no pulse.

"Once everyone got to the scene, we were ready for the worst and many more victims, but we're very fortunate with only the seven," Wildman said.

Police said about 1,200 young people attended the concert, which ended early because of the overdoses. The rave event was put on by Tight Crew of Providence, Rhode Island, which says on its website that it has a strict, zero-tolerance policy toward drug use and violence.

Authorities made one arrest and may charge more people as a result of the investigation. A 30-year-old man was charged with interfering with police while they were trying to treat the overdoses.

Someone should do a correlation study to determine the percent of people who "drop" during concerts are underage females.

it's highly possible--here's an excerpt from pihkal:

Quote:

There is certainly a broad mixture of experiences with 2C-P but, on the whole, probably more favorable than not. There was one report of an experience in which a single dosage of 16 mg was clearly an overdose, with the entire experiment labeled a physical disaster, not to be repeated. A consistent observation is that there may not be too much latitude in dosage between that which would be modest, or adequate, and that which would be excessive. The need for individual titration would be most important with this compound.



the fact that an 'overdose' (a quick search found me no info on actual symptoms) is little more than double a regular dose--coupled with a very long onset (3-5 hours) makes it easy for an uneducated user to take too much.

"hey, i took this drug two hours ago and nothing! i guess i'll drop another..."

what's scary with this is I was offered 2c-P but went with escaline instead.. Thank god.. My day of sampling these rare chems is over. Seems like people been dropping like flies lately.

2c-p is relatively safe (all rcs have an inherent risk) as long as you dose yourself correctly

it is easy to understand how someone who is unaware of the specific qualities of this substance could unknowingly take too much, though

^ What is sketch though is a class of drugs that usually are safe in relatively high doses are causing overdoses. >?<
I believe the problem is not knowing the LD50?
Contamination can also be a problem or improper lab measuring?

I do see how one can overheat though from 2c-x compounds. I jumped on a sample of 2c-i when it was unscheduled and took 32mg and thought I was going to die. Intense sweating, thought the ac was broken when it was really cold (77F).. It was a nightmare for 2 hours but then it became amazing!

it's true, the main risk from rc's is the lack of research on them--but i quoted a passage from pihkal that singled out 2c-p as different from most of the other 2c-x's:

Quote:

There is certainly a broad mixture of experiences with 2C-P but, on the whole, probably more favorable than not. There was one report of an experience in which a single dosage of 16 mg was clearly an overdose, with the entire experiment labeled a physical disaster, not to be repeated. A consistent observation is that there may not be too much latitude in dosage between that which would be modest, or adequate, and that which would be excessive. The need for individual titration would be most important with this compound.




i've taken a couple 45mg+ trips with 2c-e, but the above information is enough for me to be much more conservative in my 2c-p doses--but it's easy to assume that many users don't bother to get such information

Probably won't be 2c-p, 2c-b is 10x or more popular. My guess though is that it is like when media was calling 2c-i "smiles" when it was nbome that was "smiles". Media knows jack shit. I am calling bs on it being 2c-p though.

The fact that they were so oddly specific to 2C-P is the reason I lend any credibility to the article.


Seems like nowadays any overdose at a rave was "molly" or "bath salts"
