5-MeO-DMT

Description

5-methoxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine, commonly referred to as 5-MeO-DMT, is a fascinating psychoactive compound belonging to the indolealkylamine family. This potent substance can be found in a variety of plants and animals, but it is most famously extracted from the skin glands of the Sonoran Desert toad (scientific name: Incilius alvarius, previously known as Bufo alvarius). This toad is known for its unique production of 5-MeO-DMT, alongside its active metabolite, bufotenine, which contributes to its intriguing psychoactive properties.
