3,4-methylenedioxyamphetamine and Encephalopathy, Toxic

3,4-methylenedioxyamphetamine has been researched along with Encephalopathy, Toxic in 9 studies

3,4-Methylenedioxyamphetamine: An amphetamine derivative that inhibits uptake of catecholamine neurotransmitters. It is a hallucinogen. It is less toxic than its methylated derivative but in sufficient doses may still destroy serotonergic neurons and has been used for that purpose experimentally.
