5-MeO-DET, also known as 5-methoxy-N,N-diethyltryptamine is a psychedelic drug of the tryptamine family related to 5-MeO-DMT. [1]

Contents

Use and effects

Low dosages (0.5–1 mg) are reported to produce a relaxing body high and mild entheogenic effects. [1] Shulgin reports in TiHKAL that higher dosages (1–3 mg) can produce very unpleasant reactions. [1] One user referred to it as a "torture psychedelic". [1] The prominent adverse effects of 5-MeO-DET even at low doses prevent it from being taken at fully hallucinogenic doses. [1] Its duration is said to be 3 to 4 hours. [1]

Interactions

Pharmacology

5-MeO-DET inhibits serotonin reuptake with an IC50 value of 2.4 μM and activates 5-HT2A receptors with an EC50 value of 8.11 nM. [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] The drug fully substitutes for DOM in rodent drug discrimination tests. [9] It also substitutes for 5-MeO-DMT in rodent drug discrimination tests. [10]
