3,4-Methylenedioxyphentermine (MDPH) is a psychoactive drug of the amphetamine family. MDPH was first synthesized by Alexander Shulgin.[1] Very little data exists about the pharmacological properties, metabolism, and toxicity of MDPH.[1]
Use and effects
[edit | edit source]In his book PiHKAL (Phenethylamines i Have Known And Loved), the dose range is listed as 160–240 mg, and the duration as 3 to 5 hours.[1] MDPH's effects are very similar to those of MDA: they both are smooth and "stoning," and do not cause any visuals.[1] They also alter dreams and dream patterns.[1] But it is said to have none of the magic of MDMA.[1] Shulgin describes MDPH as a promoter; it promotes the effects of other drugs, similarly to 2C-D.[1]
Chemistry
[edit | edit source]Synthesis
[edit | edit source]The chemical synthesis of MDPH has been described.[1]
Analogues
[edit | edit source]The N-methyl derivative, 3,4-methylenedioxy-N-methylphentermine (MDMPH), has been described by Shulgin as lacking MDMA-like effects.[2] Accordingly, MDMPH, as well as MDPH, were found to be inactive as serotonin releasing agents in vitro.[2][3]
Society and culture
