Proscaline, or 4-propoxy-3,5-DMPEA is a psychedelic and hallucinogenic drug, used by some as an entheogen. It has structural and pharmacodynamic properties similar to the drugs mescaline, isoproscaline, and escaline.

Chemistry

Proscaline is in a class of compounds commonly known as phenethylamines, and is the 4-propyloxy homologue of mescaline. The full name of the chemical is 4-propyloxy-3,5-dimethoxyphenethylamine.

Effects

Proscaline produces psychedelic effects that can last 12 hours.

Pharmacology

The mechanism that produces proscaline’s hallucinogenic and entheogenic effects is unknown, though is most likely attributable to 5HT2A and 5HT2C receptor agonism, among others.

Popularity

Proscaline is virtually unknown on the black market. Limited accounts of proscaline can be found in journal articles, and in the book PiHKAL (Phenethylamines i Have Known And Loved).

Legality

Proscaline is unscheduled and unregulated in the United States.
