n-methyl-3,4-methylenedioxyamphetamine and Hypothermia

n-methyl-3,4-methylenedioxyamphetamine has been researched along with Hypothermia in 20 studies

N-Methyl-3,4-methylenedioxyamphetamine: An N-substituted amphetamine analog. It is a widely abused drug classified as a hallucinogen and causes marked, long-lasting changes in brain serotonergic systems. It is commonly referred to as MDMA or ecstasy.
3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine : A member of the class of benzodioxoles that is 1,3-benzodioxole substituted by a 2-(methylamino)propyl group at position 5.

Hypothermia: Lower than normal body temperature, especially in warm-blooded animals.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" In conclusion, the study suggests a potentially dangerous effect of concomitant caffeine and mephedrone, and highlights the importance of taking polydrug use into consideration when investigating the acute adverse effect profile of popular recreational drugs."1.43Caffeine alters the behavioural and body temperature responses to mephedrone without causing long-term neurotoxicity in rats. ( Fone, KC; Green, AR; King, MV; Shortall, SE, 2016)
" GHB is frequently combined with other recreational drugs although these interactions are not well characterised."1.35Sedative and hypothermic effects of gamma-hydroxybutyrate (GHB) in rats alone and in combination with other drugs: assessment using biotelemetry. ( McGregor, IS; van Nieuwenhuijzen, PS, 2009)
" Binge dosing produces a higher final peak response than a similar non-divided dose."1.32Effect of ambient temperature and a prior neurotoxic dose of 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA) on the hyperthermic response of rats to a single or repeated ('binge' ingestion) low dose of MDMA.
