Methiopropamine (MPA) is a thiophene-based structural analog of methamphetamine originally reported in 1942.[1] It originally appeared for public sale in the UK in December 2010[2][unreliable source?] as a "research chemical" or "legal high".[3] It gained limited popularity as a recreational stimulant due to litte euphoria compared to other common stimulants like amphetamine, instead being described as clear headed[4][unreliable source?], a more functional stimulant.

Long term health risks are yet to be determined due to lack of interest from the pharmaceutical industry in terms of testing the substance, and anecdotal data from recreational users is also limited.

[edit] Pharmacological effects

Due to a lack of clinical studies, only anecdotal reports exist for its effects. Anecdotal reports from internet forums of pharmacological effects include mild euphoria, increased alertness, energy and sexual arousal.

[edit] Side effects

Ancedotal reported side effects are quite adverse on higher doses including: increased heart rate, increased sweating, discolouration of extremities, cardiovascular problems and chest pain,[citation needed] all common symptoms of vasoconstriction.

Ancedotal reports have also included reporting it to have much more prominent negative side effects compared to common stimulants like amphetamine.

[edit] Dosage

An average dose of Methiopropamine is between 25mg-50mg orally. Insufflated is between 20mg-45mg.
