Behavior and endocrine effects of 3,4,5-trimethoxyamphetamine in male mice

Abstract

Effects of single doses of 50 and 100 mg/kg of TMA given i.p. were noted in male albino mice after 40 min and 2 1/2 h. Locomotor activity was significantly altered and biochemical tests indicated stimulatory effects on adrenocortical and adrenomedullary functions due to TMA.

Simultaneous determination of nineteen hallucinogenic tryptamines/β-calbolines and phenethylamines using gas chromatography–mass spectrometry and liquid chromatography–electrospray ionisation-mass spectrometry

“…It is used as the potency standard against which all other phenethylamine bases have been compared [5,18]. On the other hand, 3,4,5-trimethoxyamphetmine (TMA) was the very first totally synthetic psychedelic hallucinogen, structurally related to mescaline [19]. Both compounds are strictly controlled by law in Japan and in most countries but the source plants of mescaline are not controlled.…”

LC–MS analysis of trimethoxyamphetamine designer drugs (TMA series) from urine samples

“…TMA (3,4,5-trimethoxyamphetamine) was the first totally synthetic psychedelic phenethylamine found to be active in man [2,3]. TMA is already classified in Schedules I to the 1971 United Nations Convention on Psychotropic Substances.…”
