para-Ethoxyamphetamine, also known as 4-ethoxyamphetamine (4-ETA), is a psychoactive drug and research chemical of the phenethylamine and amphetamine chemical classes which is closely related to the infamous para-methoxyamphetamine (PMA). para-Ethoxyamphetamine has similar effects to PMA in animal studies, although with slightly weaker stimulant effects. [1] [2] [3] Like PMA, it has prominent MAOI activity, [4] and is likely to have similar dangers associated with its use.
