==Toxicity and deaths==
There have been at least three reported deaths related to 2C-T-7 use as of August 2007, mainly at [[Insufflation (medicine)|insufflated]] (snorted) doses of 30&nbsp;mg or more.<ref name="pmid14607005">{{cite journal | vauthors = Curtis B, Kemp P, Harty L, Choi C, Christensen D | title = Postmortem identification and quantitation of 2,5-dimethoxy-4-n-propylthiophenethylamine using GC-MSD and GC-NPD | journal = Journal of Analytical Toxicology | volume = 27 | issue = 7 | pages = 493–8 | date = October 2003 | pmid = 14607005 | doi = 10.1093/jat/27.7.493 | quote = This compound was initially identified from a routine screening procedure in postmortem urine from a 20-year-old male that died in a local emergency room after reportedly insufflating 35 mg. }}</ref><ref>{{cite report | vauthors = Platoni C | title = A psychedelic summer | work = East Bay Express | date = 1 May 2002 | quote = In the same month, Joshua Robbins, a seventeen-year-old from Cordova, Tennessee, died after snorting between thirty and thirty-five milligrams of 2C-T-7, not long after taking several other stimulant drugs.

Two additional deaths reported in April 2001 have been linked to 2C-T-7. These two deaths were reported by the DEA as being the result of the co-abuse of 2C-T-7 with MDMA.<ref>{{cite web | title =  2,5-dimethoxy-4-(n)-propylthiophenethylamine | work = Drugs and Chemicals of Concern | publisher = Office of Diversion Control, Drug Enforcement Administration, U.S. Department of Justice | url = http://www.deadiversion.usdoj.gov/drugs_concern/2ct7.htm | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20081020211953/http://www.deadiversion.usdoj.gov/drugs_concern/2ct7.htm | archive-date=October 20, 2008 }}</ref>

''[[Rolling Stone]]'', January 10, 2002, issue 888: 44–49.</ref> Although the article suggested that the drug was legal, the legal status of 2C-T-7 was ambiguous at the time due to the United States' [[Federal Analogue Act]]. <ref>21 USC §813</ref> A detailed response on the website [[Disinformation (company)|disinfo.com]] challenged the accuracy of much of the reporting in the aforementioned ''Rolling Stone'' article.<ref>{{cite web | title = The new (hip) drug hysteria: a journey into rolling stone's abandonment of journalistic ethics | vauthors = Lilly K | publisher = Disinformation | date = 2002 | url = http://www.disinfo.com/archive/pages/article/id2071/pg1/index.html | access-date = November 10, 2008 | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20080908005322/http://www.disinfo.com/archive/pages/article/id2071/pg1/index.html | archive-date = September 8, 2008 | url-status = dead }}</ref> 2C-T-7 has since been officially made illegal and declared a schedule 1 substance in the United States.<ref name="s320"/>

The [[Partnership for a Drug-Free America]] reported in 2006 that 2C-T-7 can be lethal even in small doses;<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.drugfree.org/Portal/Drug_guide/2C-B_2C-T-7|title=2C-B, 2C-T-7|author=Partnership for a Drug-Free America|author-link=Partnership for a Drug-Free America|access-date=October 4, 2006|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20061019162712/http://www.drugfree.org/Portal/drug_guide/2C-B_2C-T-7|archive-date=October 19, 2006|url-status=dead}}</ref> however, they provide no source for their claim and of the three known deaths (as of August 2007) of 2C-T-7 intoxicated individuals, all involved either uncommonly large insufflated doses or the concomitant ingestion of other stimulants such as [[ephedrine]] and/or [[MDMA]]. 

All of the three aforementioned known deaths of individuals under the influence of 2C-T-7 occurred in those known to be either intoxicated with other stimulants such as [[ephedrine]] or [[MDMA]] (which are known to be potentially lethal in certain situations or at excessive doses)<ref>{{cite journal | vauthors = Baldessarini RJ | title = Symposium: behavior modification by drugs.

This reported dose was characterized as "excessive" by the US DEA.
