Contraindications

Cardiovascular

  • pre-existing cardiovascular diseaseabsolute

    Any significant cardiovascular disease including coronary artery disease, arrhythmia, hypertension, cardiomyopathy, or history of myocardial infarction. MDPV's intense catecholamine potentiation places extreme demand on the cardiovascular system.

Neurological

  • epilepsyrelative

    Known seizure disorder or epilepsy. MDPV has documented seizure-inducing potential in clinical case literature.

Psychiatric

  • psychotic disordersabsolute

    Schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, or any active psychotic disorder. MDPV-induced psychosis can be indistinguishable from acute schizophrenia and may persist after drug cessation, requiring ECT in treatment-resistant cases.

  • bipolar disorderrelative

    Bipolar I or II disorder. MDPV's intense dopaminergic effects carry risk of mania induction. Chronic use associated with hypomania and paranoid ideation.

Hepatic

  • hepatic impairmentrelative

    Significant liver disease or hepatic impairment. Reduced CYP-mediated metabolism may increase MDPV plasma concentrations and duration of effect. Hepatic injury documented as part of the multiorgan failure syndrome.

Renal

  • renal impairmentrelative

    Chronic kidney disease or any state of reduced renal function. MDPV-associated AKI documented in multiple case reports involving both oral and IV routes.

Pregnancy & Breastfeeding

  • pregnancyabsolute

    Pregnancy at any stage. MDPV's intense cardiovascular and thermoregulatory effects present clear risk of placental insufficiency, fetal distress, and teratogenic potential. No reproductive safety data exist.
