Metabolizing MDMA
The drug is broken down metabolically, mainly in the liver, where an enzyme designated CYP2D6 is chiefly responsible. However, enzymes involved in its breaking down slow down at relatively low concentrations of the drug. If the dose is increased, higher affinity enzymes become saturated, and there is a significant increase in the drug’s concentration in the blood and brain.
If you want to re-dose, wait for at least 2 hours! If you need to re-dose frequently, it means that tolerance is building up and it may be a sign to reduce consumption. MDMA consumption can lead to neurotoxicity.
MDMA Testing
Although you bought MDMA, it’s common to find MDMA mixed with caffeine, Methamphetamine, Amphetamines (speed), DXM, Pseudo/Ephedrine, Ketamine, Benzodiazepines and TFMPP.

The bottom line is that you should always test your drugs. Otherwise, your dose could include undesirable effects and its potency might be unreliable.
