Chemistry[edit]
Proscaline is in a class of compounds commonly known as phenethylamines, and is the 4-propyloxy homologue of mescaline. The full name of the chemical is 4-propyloxy-3,5-dimethoxyphenethylamine.
Effects[edit]
Proscaline produces psychedelic effects that can last 12 hours.
Pharmacology[edit]
The mechanism that produces proscaline’s hallucinogenic and entheogenic effects is unknown, though is most likely attributable to 5HT2A and 5HT2C receptor agonism, among others.
