3,4-Methylenedioxy-N-methylphentermine (MDMP or MDMPH), also known as 3,4-methylenedioxy-α,α,N-trimethylphenethylamine, is a lesser-known drug.[1]
Use and effects
MDMP was first synthesized by Alexander Shulgin.[1] In his book PiHKAL, the minimum dose is listed as 110 mg, and the duration is listed as approximately 6 hours.[1] MDMP produces few to no effects, and is slightly similar to MDMA.[1]
Pharmacology
