Dangerous level of THH + harmalas?

Migrated topic.

I've been reading about the virtues of THH and have been wanting to add some to a CaapI brew but was wondering about possible interactions between higher levels of THH and harmalas. I know that its a normal part of Caapi but since its a weak SSRI is there any level above what's normally available in the vine that could be potentially dangerous if one were to make a brew that was heavier on THH.

I think my first question would be as to the source of your additional THH...

But to answer your question more directly. Yes I would think that if a large enough dose of a drug with SSRI action was mixed with other MAOI inhibitors (reversible or not) you could find yourself in a hypertension status pretty quickly...on the plus side these drugs are metabolized pretty quickly so you'd probably escape serious harm unless you take a ridicules dose...

But again my first question would be are you even certain you have real THH to add to it?
 
I do not have any THH but I read 69's report where he described 200mg THH and 20mg spice as his clearest and favorite method of oral dosage. That coupled with other praise I've read about THH being the most sought after of the main Caapi alkaloids led me to wonder if adding 50-100mg to every 50gr of caapi would be safe. 100 would only be if lower doses arent't significantly intense. I haven't been able to find much info on this sort of thing but definitely am curious if it could brighten up brews since it seems only old Caapi would have high levels of THH.
 
Endless the revelation that 69's THH was actually a harmalas mix and the link on THH have put me off to this idea for now. Thanks for both of your responses though, I'm glad I didn't unnecessarily invest some of my time towards it.
