Intoxication with 3-MeO-PCP alone

Two intoxication episodes in a 17-year-old male who took 200 mg of 3-MeO-PCP orally and later sniffed 50 mg illustrate that the substance causes high blood pressure, rapid heart rate, and neurological symptoms such as confusion, hypertonia, nystagmus, agitation, psychomotor impairment, and dysarthria. The first episode also involved hyperlactatemia and a rash possibly from midazolam. The second, lower-dose episode produced less severe symptoms, suggesting a dose–effect relationship. The case highlights the risk of dosing errors due to name similarity between 3-MeO-PCP and 4-MeO-PCP.
