2,3,5-Trimethoxyamphetamine (2,3,5-TMA), also known as TMA-4, is a psychedelic drug of the phenethylamine and amphetamine families. It is one of the possible positional isomers of trimethoxyamphetamine and is a positional isomer of 3,4,5-trimethoxyamphetamine (TMA or TMA-1).

Use and effects

In his book PiHKAL (Phenethylamines I Have Known and Loved) and other publications, Alexander Shulgin lists 2,3,5-TMA's dose as greater than 80mg orally and its duration as perhaps or about 6hours. Based on limited testing, it produced threshold effects including much introspection among others, along with no subjective physical symptoms. The drug at 80mg was described as comparable to 50μg LSD or 120mg TMA and as being roughly 4-fold as potent as mescaline. Per Shulgin, more testing is needed to fully characterize the drug in humans.
