Tripping: Combining Drugs

Although there’s been hardly any research on the potential benefits and risks of combining different psychedelics together, a lot of people do it.

Stories abound on Reddit about how it might make you feel. When you combine two or more drugs together, it’s called “flipping” or a “flip.” And there’s a lot of debate about whether the order of the drugs—and how long you wait between taking each one makes a difference. People combine MDMA, ketamine, LSD, shrooms, and weed, among other drugs, basically every way you can imagine.

It’s important to note that taking any of these drugs on their own can be an intense experience—and the more drugs you combine, the more you’re also at risk of experiencing something uncomfortable and challenging to navigate. So with all psychedelics, the motto within the psychedelic community is “start low and go slow.” This especially pertains to flipping of any kind. Here, we cover the most common flips as well as important information on best harm reduction practices and potential risks.

We have a small favor to ask. Last year, more than five million readers like you visited DoubleBlind’s website. Many of them are suffering and simply seeking trusted information on how to use psychedelics to heal.

We started DoubleBlind two years ago at a time when even the largest magazines and media companies were cutting staff and going out of business. At the time we made a commitment: we will never have a paywall, we will never rely on advertisers we don’t believe in to fund our reporting, and we will always be accessible via email and social media to support people for free on their journeys with plant medicines.
