Chemistry[edit | edit source]

5,6-Dibromo-DMT is a synthetic compound, meaning it does not occur naturally. It is a derivative of DMT, which is a naturally occurring psychedelic compound. The chemical structure of 5,6-Dibromo-DMT includes two bromine atoms at the 5 and 6 positions of the indole ring, hence the name 5,6-Dibromo-DMT.

Pharmacology[edit | edit source]

The pharmacology of 5,6-Dibromo-DMT is not well-studied. However, as a structural analog of DMT, it is presumed to act as a serotonin receptor agonist. DMT is known to bind to the 5-HT2A receptor, which is thought to be responsible for its psychedelic effects. It is possible that 5,6-Dibromo-DMT has similar activity, but this has not been confirmed.

However, these reports should be taken with caution, as the effects of 5,6-Dibromo-DMT can vary greatly depending on the individual and the dose taken.

Safety[edit | edit source]

The safety profile of 5,6-Dibromo-DMT is largely unknown. As with all psychedelics, it is recommended that users take precautions to ensure their safety, including having a sober sitter present and starting with a low dose.

Legal Status[edit | edit source]
