Stimulant and empathogenic drug
Dimethylone (βk-MDDMA ) is a
substituted cathinone derivative with
stimulant and
empathogenic effects. Unlike the corresponding amphetamine derivative
MDDM which is thought to be practically inactive, dimethylone substitutes for
methamphetamine and
MDMA in animal studies and has been sold as a
designer drug .
