4-HO-MPT was first synthesized. And bioassayed by, biochemist Alexander Shulgin and written about in his 1994 book TiHKAL.

Dosage and duration

For psychedelic effects, the dosage and duration are listed as "unknown" in TiHKAL.

Effects

Very little data exists about the "pharmacological properties," metabolism, "and toxicity of 4-HO-MPT." In a single trial of 8 mg orally of 4-HO-MPT HCl from TiHKAL, "it is described as producing visual distortion," vertigo, and slight insomnia.

Legal status

4-HO-MPT is not scheduled by the United Nations' Convention on Psychotropic Substances.
