5-MeO-DBT, also known as 5-methoxy-N,N-dibutyltryptamine or as 5-MeO-BET, is a rare substituted tryptamine derivative, which is thought to be a psychoactive substance and was identified in a designer drug sample by a forensic laboratory in Slovenia in March 2021, [1] although only analytical studies have been conducted and no pharmacological data is available. [2] [3] [4] It is nevertheless controlled under drug analogue legislation in a number of jurisdictions.
