Det er Psilocybin der bliver omdannet til Psilocin (ihvertfald i teorien).
I TIHKAL skriver Shulgin:
Citat:
There are two generalizations implicit here, one of which I am quite at peace with, but the other is both complex and disturbing. The OK item is the casual equation between the hydroxy compound psilocin, the acetate ester, and the phosphate ester, psilocybin. As I had discussed in the CZ-74 to CEY-19 entries in 4-HO-DET, there is no proof that the ester goes to the indolol metabolically, but it is a good guess, and there have been no demonstrated differences in their pharmacology. Ditto here, with psilocin and psilocybin. I have explored both of them as pure chemicals, and I find them completely interchangeable as to their pharmacological properties.
Når folk bare skriver mexikanske eller Hawaii er det fuldkommen umuligt at vide hvad i snakker om da både Psilocybe Cubensis og Panaeolus Cyanescens har strains kaldet "Hawaii".
Jeg har i øvrigt også set både Cubensis og Cyanescens blive solgt under navnet Hawaii dengang staden stadig var åben.
