5-MeO-MiPT

5-MeO-MiPT is a psychedelic and hallucinogenic drug, used by some as an entheogen. It has structural and pharmacodynamic properties similar to the drugs 5-MeO-DiPT and MiPT.

Chemistry
5-MeO-MiPT is in a class of compounds commonly known as tryptamines, and is the N-methyl-N-isopropyl homologue of the organic psychedelic, 5-MeO-DMT. The full name of the chemical is 5-methoxy-N-methyl-N-isopropyltryptamine.

Effects
Taken orally, 5-MeO-MiPT produces psychedelic effects that can last 4-6 hours. When smoked, the effects are nearly instantaneous and can last up to 2 hours.

This is an anologue of the more popular drug 5-MeO-DiPT (foxy methoxy) and has been dubbed "moxy" in the RC community. Some users report the tactile effects of moxy without some of the unwanted side effects. At higher doses it becomes much more psychedelic and less tactile. But at doses of 4-10 milligrams users find 5-MeO-MiPT to be a very euphoric and tactile chemical.

Dosage
Orally, 5-MeO-MiPT is active at 4-6 mg. The drug can also be smoked, but unlike most other tryptamines, this route requires a much higher dosage. 12-20mg is usually smoked. It typically produces a very strong odor.

Some users report activity as low as 1mg while others report no activity up to 20mg, this compound seems to be highly sensitive to the individual and any potential researchers should keep this in mind. Titrating the dose would be especially important with this compound.

Some users report little to no visual activity until doses of 10mg or higher are taken. This chemical proves very useful for opening up and expressing ones self much like MDMA (3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine) and may be a useful chemical in psychedelic therapy.

Pharmacology
The mechanism that produces the hallucinogenic and entheogenic effects of 5-MeO-MiPT is unknown, though is most likely attriutable to 5HT2A receptor agonsim, among others.

Dangers
The toxicity of 5-MeO-MiPT is not known but as with all research chemicals doses should be carefully weighed on an accurate milligram scale and users should take caution because overdoses are not listed.

Popularity
5-MeO-MiPT is rare on the black market, but is available through research chemical suppliers.

Legality
5-MeO-MiPT is unscheduled and unregulated in the United States, however its close similarity in structure and effects to 5-MeO-DiPT could potentially subject possession and sale of 5-MeO-MiPT to prosecution under the Federal Analog Act. This seems to be the tact the federal government is taking in the wake of the DEA's Operation Web Tryp. A series of Court Cases in the US involving the prosecution of several online vendors in ongoing as of 2004. 5-MeO-MiPT is a Class A drug in the United Kingdom.
