The name `Duimpie-snuif' literally means finger-snuff; traditionally it is used as a snuff. The pulverised plant is also reported to be an hallucinogenic additive to tobac.co to be smoked. Or else it can simply be dried and powdered and used as a snuff. The dosage is small with approximately 50 milligrams of plant chewed producing a feeling of euphoria, which lasts for about 20 minutes; this is followed by sedation.
