3-Methoxy-4-methylamphetamine (MMA) is an entactogen and psychedelic drug of the phenethylamine and amphetamine classes.[1][2] It was first synthesized in 1970[1] and was encountered as a street drug in Italy in the same decade.[3] MMA was largely forgotten until being reassayed by David E. Nichols as a non-neurotoxic MDMA analogue in 1991,[2] and has subsequently been sold as a designer drug on the internet since the late 2000s.[4]

In animal studies, MMA fully substitutes for MDMA and MBDB, partially substitutes for LSD, and does not substitute for amphetamine.[2] Additionally, it has been shown to potently inhibit the reuptake of serotonin and does not produce serotonergic neurotoxicity in rodents.[2] These data appear to confer a profile of MMA as a selective serotonin releasing agent (SSRA) and 5-HT2A receptor agonist.[2]

According to anecdotal reports, MMA is active in humans at doses of 20-60 mg and possesses a duration of approximately 12-16 hours.[4] It is said to produce empathy and mild 2C-like psychedelic effects, and although it is mood-lifting, it is not euphoric like MDMA and is more antidepressant-like in comparison.[4] At higher doses, such as 140 mg, the effects are much more psychedelic (comparable to DOM) but can be dysphoric and very long-lived.[5]
