Amanita muscaria: A guide to red fly agaric in Sweden

What is Amanita muscaria?
Amanita muscaria, commonly known as the red fly agaric, is a hallucinogenic mushroom that grows wild in Sweden. This characteristic mushroom has a red cap with white dots and a white foot. Traditionally, the red fly agaric has been used as an insecticide, but it is best known for its psychoactive effects.

Effects of red fly agaric
The active ingredient in red fly agaric is muscimol, which produces psychoactive experiences. Effects can include euphoria, vivid dreams, out-of-body experiences, and synesthesia. These effects can last for four to eight hours and are usually experienced within 30 to 60 minutes of ingestion.

Positive and negative effects
**Potential positive effects:**
- Emotional calm and relaxation
- Altered perception of time and perspective of reality
- Intense and vivid dreams
- Reduced anxiety and improved sleep
- Enhanced sensory experience (sounds and colors)

**Negative effects:**
- Nausea
- Increased saliva production
- Stomach upset
- Tremors and muscle twitches
- At high doses: strong dissociation and delirium

Dosage
To minimize the risk of negative side effects, it is important to start with a low dose. A typical dose of muscimol in commercial products ranges from 5-25 mg. It is easier to increase the dose gradually than to deal with overconsumption.

Uses of red fly agaric
For the best experience, you should be in a safe environment, such as your home, where you can relax. The products are dosed to reduce the risk of incorrect dosing.

Legality in Sweden
Red fly agaric is not classified as a narcotic in Sweden, which means that it is legal to possess and use products containing muscimol. However, the preparation and sale of these products may be subject to other laws and regulations.
