Î,N,N-TMT
Introduction
Alpha,N,N-trimethyltryptamine (α,N,N-TMT; α-TMT) is a tryptamine derivative that is a hallucinogenic drug. It is similar in structure to other hallucinogenic tryptamines such as DMT and AMT.
α-TMT has been animal tested in comparison with AMT, and was found to produce similar effects to AMT but is only around half as potent.[1] Anecdotal reports from human users suggest that it produces psychadelic effects similar to those of other tryptamine derivatives when taken orally at a dose of around 80â120 mg, however it does not appear to have been widely sold or used, and its safety profile has not been studied.
