Want to buy IC-26 (Methiodone)?

IC-26, also known as methiodone, is a synthetic substance in the Diphenyl category. This research chemical has become interesting to study because its properties are still relatively unknown. At Funcaps, IC-26 is available in the hydrochloride variant (HCl), a form that is often used because of its good solubility and stability. 

It is a substance that can serve as a substitute for methadone. They are closely related, but the main difference is that IC-26 falls under the Diphenyl category (legal), while methadone belongs to the class of opiates (illegal). Both are substances that act on the pain receptors in the nervous system. IC-26 was originally developed as an alternative to methadone, but never made it into general medical use. IC-26 is also often compared to O-DSMT, but methiodone is many times stronger.

IC-26 effect

IC-26 is already being studied in laboratory settings because of its long-lasting effect and interaction with µ-opioid receptors, just like other substances in the opiate family. Its structure is very similar to methadone, but it contains an extra iodine ion, which may give the substance slightly different properties. Methiodone enhances its analgesic effect by inhibiting the reuptake of neurotransmitters such as noradrenaline and serotonin. The effects can be noticeable for a long time, although the duration of action is shorter when the substance is administered nasally. IC-26 HCI powder is more commonly used for this purpose.

Please note: IC-26 is intended for analytical or scientific use only and is expressly not suitable for human consumption.

Effects of IC-26

Based on its chemical similarity to methadone, the effects of IC-26 are thought to be as follows in research:

• Pain-relieving and anaesthetic effect;
• Long-lasting effect;
• Euphoria or sedation;
• Suppression of anxiety;
• Suppression of cough reflex and breathing

Little is known about the effects of IC-26. What we do know is mainly based on studies of similar substances, such as methadone. More research is needed to understand exactly how IC-26 behaves.

IC-26 Side effects

When using IC-26 in laboratory experiments, side effects that are also observed with methadone are taken into account. Possible side effects in studies may include:

• Drowsiness and sedation;
• Nausea or vomiting;
• Disturbed breathing;
• Itching;
• Reduced bowel movements;
• Dependence due to rapid habituation.

Side effects depend on the dose and frequency of exposure. Researchers should take appropriate precautions when working with IC-26.

Risks

Methiodone may pose potential risks, although these are not known. Compared to the substance methadone, the following risks are known:

Addiction risks: with incorrect or prolonged use
Respiratory depression: in high doses
It is therefore very important that IC-26 is only used within a controlled research setting. Always start with a low dose and regular administration is strongly discouraged due to the high risk of addiction. Methiodone is only sold for scientific purposes and is therefore expressly not suitable for human consumption.

Recommended dosage

No standard dosage recommendation is available for methiodone hydrochloride, as the substance has never been used in mainstream medicine. Researchers therefore always start with a low dose in order to observe the reaction gradually. In the case of IC-26 pellets, it is recommended to start with half a pill. However, the correct amount depends entirely on the research objective and must be carefully determined in a professional laboratory environment. Pellets are recommended in order to provide a safe dose and thus limit risks.
