Class (Stereo):
CHEMICAL (RACEMIC)


Conditions:

Methoxyphedrine (para-methoxymethcathinone, 4-methoxymethcathinone, bk-PMMA, PMMC, Methedrone, 4-MeOMC) is a phenethylamine, amphetamine, and cathinone derivative that acts as a triple reuptake/release/reversible monoamine oxidase inhibitor and used as a recreational drug. Methedrone has been found to be a potent serotonin transporter (SERT) and norepinephrine transporter (NET) inhibitor, but a weak dopamine transporter (DAT) inhibitor. Methedrone induces the transportation mediated release of NE, DA, and 5-HT from cells preloaded with monoamines making it a serotonin-norepinephrine-dopamine (SNDRA) releasing agent, also known as triple releasing agent (TRA), which is a common characteristic among drugs of abuse. The health risks associated with Methedrone are unknown but are expected to be similar to other cathinones. The deaths of two young men in southeast Sweden in 2009 were attributed to Methedrone overdose.
