Any health risks associated with long-term Syrian Rue use
    #26924209 - 09/08/20 07:22 AM (3 years, 4 months ago)

Curious about the possible health risks weekly use could entail? I'd come across some guy on here saying he takes some syrian rue daily. So should i be in the clear or? Are all the health risks associated with syrian rue to do with mixed use with SSRI's and diet? Usually fast before so i don't have to worry too much about what i eat tyramine wise.

There are no bad interactions with tyramine, or any other food.

Syrian rue is no long lasting MAOI but a RIMA, a reversible inhibitor of mao-a, so most warnings about pharmaceutical, tricyclic, or generally long lasting MAO-a+b inhibitors do not apply to syrian rue.

There are users here who have taken syrian rue daily for years without any diet restrictions, with no harm.

Just avoid strong drugs or medications. SSRIs & other antidepressants, antipsychotics, stimulants & entactogens are dangerous to combine with syrian rue.
Cannabis, dmt, mushrooms, mescaline, chocolate & coffee are safe to combine. Coffee might get unusually strong, though beware.

Yeah i'm one of the people who takes Rue/Harmalas daily/regularly for long periods of time. I've never encountered any health risks or problems, i've went to the doctor a few times and gotten everything checked out, there's been no issues. I don't avoid anything dietarily because Tyramine isn't an issue with RIMA's. Only need to be careful about and watch out for drug to drug interactions like SSRI's, Amphetamines, and some other drugs/medications, also be careful with things metabolized by CYP1A2 or CYP2D6, Caffeine for example is metabolized by CYP1A2 which the Harmalas inhibit so it can potentiate the dosage of Caffeine, same thing goes for CYP2D6 substrates being potentiated. But aside from drug to drug interactions, there's no issues with regular consumption of Harmalas/Rue/Caapi. Quite a few people have consumed this stuff daily/regularly, especially over at the DMT-Nexus. Nobody has reported any issues.

Thanks for the replies, I'd come across the tyramine thing being a myth, so it's nice to get confirmation about that from additional voices.

For those of you who have taken it daily, what kinds of doses? The past couple of times i've taken 5g once a week, ground it up the second time (should buy a coffee grinder since they're pretty stubborn to grind up).

Should probably look into a proper extraction process like non-polar / polar extraction. Or what would you say in terms of a most effective method for consumption?

I'd boiled them when unground, but then i read on zamnesia that some of it's lost in boiling so the ground time i just left in the fridge in some water for a couple of hours. Should probably leave it in for longer?

Probably should also boil for longer than i am... Haven't added citrus these past few times, the first time i tried it back in spring i did though. Any comments on how would be best, probably with something citric?

Just had 250g of rue arrive in the post so this post is well timed for me as i'm intending to dose over an extended period with just rue before experimenting with potentiating my (smoked and hopefully oral) DMT and mushrooms - my partner has been off SSRIs for we over 6 months now and we've been talking about pharma/psilohuasca for a very long time - i feel it's important to get to know Rue itself first from how people here talk about it.

Thinking of small/concentrated teas with citrus? Have to say the reports of the taste are not making me excited, but also i feel like an extraction isnt doing the plant justice, at least at first...

Could grind the seeds into a powder and encapsulate the powder, it's what i do.

I use 3 to 4.5 grams of the seed, sometimes as low as 2.5 grams, but almost always 3 to 4.5 grams, usually 3 to 3.5 grams.

Coffee grinder is best for grinding the seeds into a powder.

The actual seed is better imo/ime than extracts, but extracts can be good too and are definitely effective, but misses out on some of the plant's aspects.

I've read multiple times that l vasicine and vasicinone found in rue isn't so good for you. I don't know the context behind this though. I understood it was unpreferable to consume though.

It is good for you, has bronchodilator properties, helps cough up phlegm, breathe better, has vasorelaxant properties, probably has other benefits. Only thing that's not good about it is for pregnant women since they can cause abortion apparently.

To name a few, pain relief, body relaxation, anti-depressant effects, more clearheaded, able to focus and concentrate better, gives me the ability to see mental imagery like thoughts and memories (when normally in my day to day i don't have that, i think i have some form of aphantasia), also makes me feel healthy and connected to Spirit, and i get taught things.

Sabnock, have you tried doses upwards of 5g? 10g?

I have not, a few months ago i took 7 grams of roasted seed one night after having taken it daily for a few months, it went fine but was overall too much. Usually what i do is stick to 3 to 4.5 grams of seed daily or near daily and let the reverse tolerance build up, so that the Harmala content gets stronger and stronger each time so after a bit of taking it regularly the Harmala content gets as potent/strong as taking 5 to 10 grams or more, except that i don't have to take that much Rue and therefore don't get heavier amounts of the other stuff in Rue, so when i do that it gives me the heavier Harmala dosages but has a cleaner feel to it compared to taking that equivalent dosage of Rue. Another thing about the Harmala reverse tolerance is that after a bit of taking it regularly the side-effects will go away so no more nausea or vomiting, the bodyload cleans up and the motor function impairment is reduced which allows you to handle heavy heavy dosages of Harmala content a lot easier and things become way more manageable. I've personally never felt the need to take more than 4.5 grams of Rue because that dosage is already strong enough lol.

I just had my second rue experience with 12g of shrooms and 2.7g rue (I usually dose very high, around 25g) after my first experience almost a decade ago. It was an amazing experience. I usually also re-dose the same amount of mushrooms after 2-3 hours. Obviously this is a lot of mushrooms and the main reason I wanted to try rue again. After the last experience of only having to use half the mushrooms and the trip being even more powerful in it's own unique way and lasting longer, I'm thinking of regularly using rue when I trip (and perhaps not doing a second dose anymore). This would be 1/2 - 3/4 less mushrooms!

My main concern is my girlfriend. I've read that syrian rue can stop menstruation as well as cause abortion and I worry this is not a good thing for my girlfriend to be doing long term. Are the menstruation effects a real thing? It seems the abortion claim may indeed be true, but what about menstruation? Do you have any knowledge on the subject? Have you or anyone else known any women that have used rue daily? Or even just weekly? Are their periods normal? We would only be using the rue once a week at most. She really loved the experience too but I am concerned.

Iirc it's said that Rue can act as an emmenagogue, so it gets menstruation going. The abortive properties are unlikely to be an issue at commonly used dosages, from my understanding you have to go for a lot of Rue, like at least 20 to 50 grams or so, to cause an abortion, iirc, it's doubtful an abortion would occur from 2 to 4 grams or so of Rue, but regardless, it's best that a pregnant woman not consume Rue, but the emmenagogue thing is fine and probably healthy, just not during pregnancy, obviously, but even it's emmenagogue properties, i'm not sure at what dosage that would be a thing, especially since emmenagogue properties are i think what contributes to causing an abortion, so again, may not be any issue at commonly used dosages, imo.

Interesting stuff, you seem to have immersed yourself quite deeply in this world. Given that, how would you recommend dosing to work reverse tolerance and make a psilohuasca experience more foolproof?  And by any chance would you ever add THH to the mix?

As far as the reverse tolerance goes, what i did is i would take the same dosage of Rue until it felt too strong, then i'd lower the dosage a bit and keep taking that dosage until it got too strong, then lower the dosage again and continue on. Eventually you only end up needing a little bit of Rue for a full dose of Harmalas, and it's a good way to keep the dosage relatively the same, by lowering it a little as it gets too strong. It's not perfect, but it works.

As for Psilohuasca, what do you mean by more fullproof? I would say just don't take Psilocin more than once or twice a week as to avoid tolerance.

I haven't added THH in the mix with DMT or Psilocin, yet, but i really see no reason to, doesn't mean i won't ever try it because i likely will, but personally i've found Harmine/Harmaline (Rue) to be all i need, the times i've tried THH on it's own or in combination with the Rue it really didn't make much difference but idk what difference, if any, it'd make with the Psychedelic portion in the mix.

By foolproof I mean making sure you're working with MAO inhibition and haven't mis-timed your MAO dose. I usually do MAOis as a one time thing, but I still think it's hard to get the timing right, it would be nice to add in some margin of error.

Well i usually take DMT or Psilocin 30 minutes to an hour after consuming the MAO-A inhibitor, usually an hour apart, seems to work consistently ime.
