"PCP 1 2
PCP (phencyclidine) is classified as a hallucinogen and has many of the same effects as LSD, but can be much more dangerous. In the 1950's, PCP was investigated as an anesthetic, but due to its severe side effects, its development for human use was discontinued. PCP is known for inducing violent behavior and for inducing negative physical reactions such as seizures, coma, death. There is no way to predict who will have a bad reaction to the drug. Maybe this is because PCP has so many faces--it acts as a hallucinogen, stimulant, depressant, and anesthetic---all at the same time.
In its original state, PCP is a white crystalline powder. PCP is available in tablet, liquid, and powder forms and is either ingested orally or smoked by applying the liquid form to tobacco or marijuana cigarettes or by lacing these and other cigarettes, sometimes containing herbs such as mint or parsley, with PCP powder."

Its an elephant tranquilizer
I know you can inject it, and I think you can smoke it too.
You have hallucinations, feel no pain, and have feelings of euphoria.
However, only one use has killed or caused brain damage in lots of people. Its a very dangerous drug. I seriously hope you're not considering taking it, you could have a bad trip, which is very dangerous for hallucinogen drugs. It would be like having a nightmare you couldn't wake up from.
My mom is a cop, and she told me that one time this lady called 911 because there was a giant snake in her house. They got there, and she had to be rushed to the hospital b/c she had hacked off her left arm with a butcher knife, and then proceeded to chop it up on the floor. She thought her arm was a snake, and she was killing it. She was high on PCP, I have other stories too. DO NOT USE PCP, IT IS VERY DANGEROUS!!! Waste your money elsewhere!

What is PCP?
"Angel Dust," "Hog," "Rocket Fuel," "DOA," "Peace Pill" - these are other names for the illegal drug phencyclidine (PCP). PCP was developed in the 1950s as an anesthetic. However, the use of PCP as an anesthetic was stopped after some people experienced psychotic reactions after using the drug. PCP is now made illegally and has found its way onto the street, often contaminating other street drugs.
side effects
The drug has different effects on different people. It can act as a stimulant, a depressant, an analgesic (decreasing pain) or a hallucinogen depending on the dose and route of administration. The effects produced by PCP are different from those caused by hallucinogens such as LSD. Rather than producing visual hallucinations, PCP causes changes in body image. In addition to these distortions of reality, PCP can cause frightening side effects such as feelings of terror and confusion.
Behavioral Effects of PCP
PCP can be eaten, snorted, injected or smoked. Depending on how a person takes the drug, the effects are felt within a few minutes (2-5 minutes when smoked) to an hour. PCP can stay in a person's body for a long time; the half-life of PCP ranges from 11 to 51 hours
Dose Effect
Low Feelings of euphoria (well-being), relaxation, numbness, sensory distortions, feelings of detachment from one's own body, anxiety, confusion, amnesia, illogical speech, blurred vision, blank stare
Medium Confusion, agitation, analgesia, fever, excessive salivation, "schizophrenic-type" behavior
High Seizures, respiratory failure, coma, fever, stroke, DEATH
Tolerance and dependence on PCP are possible. Withdrawal symptoms include diarrhea, chills, tremors.
Effects of PCP on the Brain
PCP affects multiple neurotransmitter systems in the brain. For example, PCP inhibits the reuptake of dopamine, norepinephrine and serotonin and also inhibits the action of glutamate by blocking NMDA receptors. Some types of opioid receptors in the brain are also affected by PCP. These complex effects on multiple chemical systems in the brain most likely underlie the behavioral effects of PCP.

PCP is a powerful psychedelic known for its dissociative effects at higher doses. It is best known for stories of the strange and sometimes violent behavior of people under its influence.
DESCRIPTION
Phencyclidine (PCP) is a synthetic chemical in the dissociative anaesthetic class. It is perhaps best known by the media hype it received in the late 1970's portraying it as a extremely dangerous chemical causing madness, psychotic reactions, and super-human strength. It is found in a variety of forms including crystals/powder, tablets, and liquid. Recently it seems to be available on the underground market most commonly as cannabis joints, regular cigarettes or cannabis leaf dipped in liquid PCP....and usually marketed as something else, seldom as 'PCP'.
Dose
PCP is used in very small quantities with 5-10 mg considered an average dose.
Law
PCP is illegal to possess in the United States (schedule II).
Chemistry
Phencyclidine (PCP) is a synthetic chemical.
History
PCP was first synthesized in 1926 and began being investigated as a human anesthetic in the mid 1950's by Parke Davis. It was marketed as a human anesthetic for two years under the name 'Sernyl' before being withdrawn from the market due to hallucinations experienced by patients under it's influence. Recreational use rose in the late 60's leading to its placement in Schedule III in the early 70's. After its recreational use continued to rise during the early 70's, PCP was moved to Schedule II in 1978.

Pathological changes induced in cerebrocortical neurons by phencyclidine and related drugs,
by J.W. Olney; J. Labruyere; M.T. Price
Science Vol 244 (No 4910) Jun 16, 1989; 1360-2
Phencyclidine (PCP), a dissociative anesthetic and widely abused psychotomimetic drug, and MK-801, a potent PCP receptor ligand, have neuroprotective properties stemming from their ability to antagonize the excitotoxic actions of endogenous excitatory amino acids such as glutamate and aspartate. There is growing interest in the potential application of these compounds in the treatment of neurological disorders. However, there is an apparent neurotoxic effect of PCP and related agents (MK-801, tiletamine, and ketamine), which has heretofore been overlooked: these drugs induce acute pathomorphological changes in specific populations of brain neurons when administered subcutaneously to adult rats in relatively low doses. These findings raise new questions regarding the safety of these agents in the clinical management of neurodegenerative diseases and reinforce concerns about the potential risks associated with illicit use of PCP.
To sum up: PCP is bad shtuff, DON'T DO IT

PCP is an animal tranquilizer that is sometimes mixed with marijuana and smoked. It was called the "Superman" drug because users felt themselves invulnerable. The fact was they just didn't feel the pain because of the numbing effects and many messed themselves up jumping out windows, fighting with police, etc.

PCP is a mixture of two drugs with a specific compound, all it really is, is just ICE, mixed with a bit of COCAINE, and about 3/10th's of a gram, of polyethylene.
{for a single gram of ice that is}
To answer your other question, you can smoke it, snort it, or bump it.
And for your last question, it actually works a lot like heroin: up and down, ya know, fast then slow, as in how the rest of the world looks like it's moving.

You should try DXM first, its a more readily available dissociative. If you already have the PCP, then dip a cig or some weed in it if its liquid or snort it if its powder.

It's Phencyclidine.
a drug used as an anesthetic by veterinarians; illicitly taken (originally in the form of powder or `dust') for its effects as a hallucinogen by drug users.
Usually it's mixed with weed and smoked...good luck on trying to get down safely from the high.
