Contraindications

Cardiovascular

  • cardiovascular diseaserelative

    Pre-existing hypertension, arrhythmias, heart failure, or other significant cardiovascular disease. Cardiovascular stimulation at higher doses may exacerbate these conditions.

Psychiatric

  • psychotic disordersabsolute

    Personal history of schizophrenia spectrum disorders or other primary psychotic disorders. 5-HT2A agonism disrupts thalamocortical gating and may trigger psychotic decompensation.

  • bipolar disorderabsolute

    Personal history of bipolar I disorder. Risk of manic episode triggering. Bipolar II may carry relative rather than absolute risk, but caution is warranted.

Hepatic

  • hepatic impairmentrelative

    Significant hepatic impairment may reduce MiPT clearance and increase exposure. No substance-specific data; inferred from CYP-dependent metabolism of analog compounds.

Pregnancy & Breastfeeding

  • pregnancyabsolute

    Pregnancy and breastfeeding. No reproductive safety data for MiPT or closely related tryptamines.

Other

  • MAOI useabsolute

    Concurrent use of monoamine oxidase inhibitors including pharmaceutical MAOIs (phenelzine, tranylcypromine, moclobemide) and beta-carboline MAOIs in ayahuasca. Serotonin syndrome risk is severe.

  • lithium useabsolute

    Concurrent lithium therapy. Multiple case reports associate lithium + psychedelic combinations with seizures across the serotonergic psychedelic class.

  • SSRI/SNRI userelative

    Concurrent SSRI or SNRI use. Risk is moderate rather than severe due to MiPT's lack of SERT inhibition, but serotonin syndrome remains possible.
