5-MeO-MIPT
Encyclopedia
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
, DiPT, and MiPT
. It is commonly used as a "substitute" for 5-MeO-DiPT (known as "Foxy Methoxy"), and because of the very similar structure and effects, it is commonly referred to as "Moxy" or "Moxie".
s, 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-isopropyl
tryptamine.
This is an analogue of the more popular drug 5-MeO-DiPT
(nicknamed "foxy methoxy") and has the nickname "moxy". Some users report the tactile effects of 5-MeO-DiPT 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. Its energetic effects can be very strong at high doses, increasing normal heart rate considerably. Sounds can be amplified in perception to a point where synesthetic effects ("touching or/and tasting sounds") occur.
Some users report activity as low as 1 mg while others report no activity up to 20 mg, 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 10 mg 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.
agonism, although additional mechanisms of action such as inhibition of monoamine reuptake
may be involved also.

5-Meo-Mipt and other derivatives are illegal in Romania, as of January 2011.
Psychedelic
The term psychedelic is derived from the Greek words ψυχή and δηλοῦν , translating to "soul-manifesting". A psychedelic experience is characterized by the striking perception of aspects of one's mind previously unknown, or by the creative exuberance of the mind liberated from its ostensibly...

Effects
Taken orally, 5-MeO-MiPT produces psychedelic effects in less than 20 min that can last 4–6 hours. When smoked, the effects are nearly instantaneous and can last up to 2 hours.This is an analogue of the more popular drug 5-MeO-DiPT

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. 12–20 mg is usually smoked. It typically produces a very strong odor.Some users report activity as low as 1 mg while others report no activity up to 20 mg, this compound seems to be highly sensitive to the individual and any potential researchers should keep this in mind. Titrating

Pharmacology
The mechanism that produces the hallucinogenic and entheogenic effects of 5-MeO-MiPT is thought to result primarily from 5-HT2A receptor5-HT2A receptor
The mammalian 5-HT2A receptor is a subtype of the 5-HT2 receptor that belongs to the serotonin receptor family and is a G protein-coupled receptor . This is the main excitatory receptor subtype among the GPCRs for serotonin , although 5-HT2A may also have an inhibitory effect on certain areas such...
