MDPR, also known as 3,4-methylenedioxy-N-propylamphetamine or as N-propyl-MDA, is a lesser-known psychoactive drug and a substituted amphetamine.[1][2]
Use and effects
In his book PiHKAL (Phenethylamines I Have Known and Loved), Alexander Shulgin lists MDPR's minimum dose as 200 mg orally and its duration as unknown.[1][2] MDPR is described as a "promoter"; by itself it has almost no effects on the mind, but it promotes the effects of hallucinogens, similarly to the closely related MDPH.[1] Shulgin reported that 160 mg of MDPR strongly enhanced the effects of a small (60 μg) dose of LSD,[1] and that similar enhancement of hallucinogenic effect was noted when mixing MDPR with other drugs such as psilocybin, mescaline, 2C-B, and 2C-T-7.[1] The reason for this synergistic action of MDPR has not been elucidated.[1]
