3,4-Methylenedioxy-N-hydroxyamphetamine (MDOH, MDH), also known as N-hydroxy-MDA, is an entactogen, psychedelic, and stimulant of the phenethylamine and amphetamine chemical classes.[2] It is the N-hydroxy homologue of MDA, and the N-desmethyl homologue of MDHMA.[1]

Use and effects

[edit]

In his book PiHKAL (Phenethylamines I Have Known and Loved), Alexander Shulgin listed the dose range as 100 to 160 mg orally and its duration as approximately 3 to 6 hours.[1] He describes MDOH as being very psychedelic and producing increased pleasure in beauty and nature.[1] Shulgin also mentioned several negative side effects also seen with MDMA ("Ecstasy") such as difficulty urinating and internal dryness.[1] He has noted that the properties and effects of MDOH are very similar or near-identical to those of MDA and that MDOH might be converted into MDA in the body.[1]
