I recently was in an accident and am on a 6-8 week bedrest. I've been prescribed Enoxaparin sodium, which is a blood thinner also known as Lovenox. DMT is known to heighten blood pressure. So my question is... is it safe to smoke DMT while on this specific medication?


Please & thanks for any response
 

Good quality Syrian rue (Peganum harmala) for an incredible price!

First of all hope you get better quick!

Best to speak with your physician and ask him/her if there are any possible interactions with the medication you're taking. Levonox is know to cause seizures and in general any drug that may cause seizures is a big no no with psychedelics.
Be inquisitive and always question things...

An obvious concern would be the combination of a brief and rapid rise in blood pressure (which is likely to occur during an intense experience), plus a blood thinner, leading to an arterial rupture and uncontrolled bleed. We are talking about hemorrhagic stroke. You would need an underlying weakness in an arterial wall to begin with.

To quantify the increased risk of a bleed due to being on enoxaparin, while smoking dmt, is impossible. You would have to be unlucky. But common sense should prevail. Personally I would wait until the enoxaparin is ceased. That way you will feel more at ease going into the experience.

Can't comment on the seizures. It's listed as a possible side effect, but I've never seen one occur in those on enoxaparin.

Thank you both for the advice. I've decided to wait until my bed rest is over. Mostly because the other medications I'm on also have side effects of causing seizures. Between the blood thinners, Gabapentin, and oxycodone, there are too many factors against me at that point.
