MPM (psychedelic)

MPM (Methyl-Propyltryptamine) is a psychedelic drug and a substituted tryptamine. It is a member of the tryptamine family, which includes other psychedelic substances such as DMT, psilocybin, and LSD.

Chemistry[edit | edit source]

MPM is a substituted tryptamine, meaning it is a derivative of the tryptamine molecule. The chemical structure of MPM consists of a tryptamine backbone with a methyl group and a propyl group attached to the nitrogen atom of the tryptamine. This structure is similar to other substituted tryptamines such as DMT and psilocybin.

Pharmacology[edit | edit source]

The exact mechanism of action of MPM is not fully understood. However, like other tryptamines, it is believed to act primarily as a serotonin receptor agonist. This means it binds to and activates certain serotonin receptors in the brain, which can lead to its psychedelic effects.

Effects[edit | edit source]

The effects of MPM can vary greatly depending on the dose, the individual's physiology, and the setting in which it is taken. Common effects reported by users include visual hallucinations, altered perception of time, enhanced introspection, and feelings of euphoria. However, MPM can also cause negative effects such as anxiety, paranoia, and physical discomfort.

Legal Status[edit | edit source]

The legal status of MPM varies by country. In some countries, it is classified as a controlled substance, while in others it is legal to possess and use. It is important to note that even in countries where MPM is legal, it may still be regulated under analogue laws, which can make it illegal to sell or distribute without a license.
