Metox-amphetamines The simplest representative of the hallucinogenic amphetamines is the PMA (death drug). It is synthesized very easy and that’s why it can be found very often on the black market. A foolish article, according to which, it was the second most powerful hallucinogen after LSD, stimulated the interest of the illegal chemists towards PMA; this conclusion was based on the experiments performed over lab mice. Actually PMA is 1000 times weaker than LSD; in doses of 50-70 mg it causes some effects, similar to those of mescaline, but it is rather a stimulant than anything else. After inconsiderable increasing of the dose the PMA may have some unpleasant side-effects such as anxiety, delirium and muscle spasms. PMA is relatively highly toxic. |
