Buy a-PCYP?
Synthetic cathinones are research chemicals that have effects similar to those of illegal substances such as MDMA and cocaine. These new psychoactive substances include both well-known RCs, such as 3-MMC, and lesser-known substances, including a-PCYP. A-PCYP is a promising research chemical with mainly stimulant properties. However, due to the amendment of the law on 1 July 2025, it is no longer permitted to purchase a-PCYP.
A-PCYP is a research chemical that belongs to the cathinones group of research chemicals. A-PCYP is famous for its stimulating and psychoactive properties and is studied in crystal form. Did you want to buy a-PCYP? For years, you could do so at Funcaps, as we are the leading supplier of high-quality research chemicals. However, since 1 July 2025, cathinones have been banned due to an amendment to the Opium Act. As a result, A-PCYP is now illegal in the Netherlands. We no longer sell A-PCYP, but we do offer several alternatives, such as herbal stimulants and Kratom.
How a-PCYP works
a-PCYP belongs to the synthetic cathinones. This relatively unknown RC is a chemical variant of A-PVP and A-PiHP. However, a-PCYP had a unique effect compared to its predecessor. It functions in the same way as a-PVP, by inhibiting the reuptake of dopamine, but due to its alpha-cyclohexyl structure, a-PCYP is twice as potent as a-PVP.
Effects of a-PCYP
If you were to experiment with a-PCYP, you could expect the effects of a-PVP, only stronger. These were the average experiences with a-PCYP, among others:
- Increased alertness
- More energy
- Mild euphoria
- Cheerful feeling
- Reduced appetite
- Social behaviour
- More focused
- More alert
Possible side effects
Like other stimulant cathinones, a-PCYP carries some health risks:
- Increased heart rate and blood pressure
- Sleep problems
- Restlessness
- Muscle tension
- Jaw clenching
- Anxiety
- Paranoia
- Psychological dependence
- Damage to your heart, nervous system or psyche
The comedown has been described as prolonged (sometimes lasting more than 12 hours) and sometimes intense, especially at high doses or with repeated use. All these side effects led the government to place synthetic cathinones on a new Opium List, meaning that all substances in this class are now prohibited.
You can no longer order a-PCYP
Due to the significant health risks associated with research into a-PCYP, this substance, along with other synthetic cathinones, has been classified under the Opium Act. This means that from 1 July 2025, you will no longer be allowed to sell, buy or possess a-PCYP. However, you can still order other stimulants from Funcaps. In our smart shop, you will find all kinds of stimulating herbs that can be purchased legally and have stimulating properties. Examples include green and white Kratom or the herb Ginseng.
