Description

Methyl phenylglycine, also known as N-methylphenylglycine, is a synthetic amino acid that is a precursor to the stimulant drug phenethylamine. It is not found naturally in the body and is synthesized through a process involving the reaction of phenylglycine with formaldehyde. Methyl phenylglycine has been shown to have stimulant effects, including increased alertness, energy, and focus. These effects are believed to be due to its ability to increase the release of dopamine in the brain. Research has investigated its potential as a treatment for attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and other conditions involving dopamine deficiency. However, it is important to note that methyl phenylglycine has not been approved for medical use and its safety and efficacy are still under investigation.'
