Posted by The 7-OH alternatives of Oxonol and Pseudo have two main groups of people they appeal to: Those who’ve had 7-OH and didn’t like it, and those who haven’t, and came just in time for the alternatives. Because they’re derivatives of the alkaloids 7-hydroxymitragynine and pseudoindoxyl mitragynine, they have fewer side effects.
Although 7-OH is by far the most powerful analgesic of the three, Oxonol and Pseudo give much of the same effect of pain relief, but with light and calm or grounding and sedative effects. They’re also legal in areas where 7-OH is banned.
If you’re new to taking Oxonol or Pseudo but aren’t sure how to start, this guide will help. Read about how to take your first doses of either 7-OH alternative.
How Is the Oxonol or Pseudo Packaged?
The form or medium the Oxonol (MGM15) or Pseudo comes in will change how fast it reaches the bloodstream. Hence, it will affect the time of the onset, duration, and even the strength of the effects.
Oxonol comes as chewable tablets. They are splittable into quarters for easy dosing so you only take as little as necessary. Oxonol is very much like MGM15, but with a proprietary formulation that avoids “designer drug” drawbacks.
If you’re planning to take MGM15, then you might find them as powders, chewable tablets, or extracts. Keep in mind though that it’s difficult to get concise dosing across different mediums, and each medium has its own concentration of active ingredients. Some vendors carries one or two mediums, with bulk suppliers offering a variety of all three.
Pseudo can come in similar ways to MGM15. Real Botanicals’ Pseudo is in the form of chewable tablets, like their Oxonol.
Which Oxonol or Pseudo Product Is Right For Me?
One of the things you should put a little thought into before deciding to purchase Oxonol (MGM15) or Pseudo is how you might enjoy each product or medium. By far, the most common is chewable tablets.
Why tablets instead of shots? Because they have a fast onset with a moderate strength of effects, and they don’t have the GI effects some people might experience with other mediums. Powders and capsules require more of the extract, since it’s then dried and loses some of its potency in that form.
Liquids, especially shots, have almost immediate onset and relief. Also, they’re far more concentrated than other mediums, so people need less to achieve the same effects. Only experienced users need apply.
It’s fine to explore after you’re familiar with their effects. For beginners, chewable tablets are the easiest way to take Oxonol (MGM15) or Pseudo.
Do I Just Follow the Dosing Directions to the Letter?
One of the problems with purchasing Oxonol (MGM15) or Pseudo from some vendors is that their recommended dosing according to their directions seems, well, a little much. Yes, even the beginner dosage. So I recommend for your first time – probably your first few times – stick to maybe half of what the directions say. Low and slow is key.
With Real Botanicals’ Oxonol and Pseudo, you don’t have to worry about inconsistency and too-high dosages when you’re looking for a high-functioning 7-OH alternative. Whereas most vendors’ chewable tablets are only splittable into halves, Real Botanicals’ splits into quarters. Testing is done in small batches so that consistency is true across all batches.
Also, ChromaPure is their proprietary, advanced technology they use to extract and eliminate contaminants in one process – not multiple steps – and with the highest purity you can expect possible. They don’t have offerings such as “88% potency” – it’s the highest concentration in the extract. Precise dosing frees you from guesswork.
Do I Take It With Food?
You definitely want to take Oxonol (MGM15) or Pseudo with food. When taken on an empty stomach, you might experience nausea, lack of appetite, or sudden drowsiness. While you don’t need to eat a full meal, you still should have something in your stomach.
What Effects Can I Expect?
Within 15 minutes to 30 minutes, you should start feeling the onset of the effects:
- Oxonol: Light, calm, smooth, relaxing; fast onset, minimal crash, moderate pain relief, euphoria.
- MGM15: Slower onset, clean plateau, balance, minimal crash, pain relief, euphoria.
- Pseudo: Heavy, grounding, sedating; fast onset, minimal crash, moderate to high pain relief, euphoria.
If I Don’t Feel Anything, Should I Take More?
For some people, depending on what they’ve eaten and their metabolism, they may not feel the effects for up to an hour. If you don’t feel any different after an hour, take the other half of the recommended dosage. So if a full dosage is 30 mg, take 15 mg, and after an hour, take the other 15 mg.
How Long Will the Effects Last?
With chewable tablets, you can expect the effects to last from 6 to 8 hours. Oxonol is said to wear off sooner and Pseudo is longer-lasting. So, let’s say 6 hours for Oxonol (MGM15) and 8 hours for Pseudo.
Are They Interchangeable?
In short, yes, but you don’t want to switch from one to the other within the same day. If you don’t like one, or just want to alternate, wait until the next day so you can sleep off the effects and have a fresh start.
What Should I Look For With My Oxonol or Pseudo Vendor?
You’ll want an Oxonol (MGM15) or Pseudo vendor that has transparent information about their ingredients and test results. They should participate in independent third-party testing with comprehensive reports anyone can read and understand. Also, look for quality control that adheres to strict safety standards while also maintaining consistency and purity.
Real Botanicals carries both, in case you can’t decide or want to have more than one 7-OH alternative. Manufacturer-direct, with a private SC lab and patented ChromaPure extraction and cleaning technology make Real Botanicals a truly reliable vendor.
