Dissociative agents, such as phencyclidine (PCP) and ketamine, belong to the arylcyclohexylamine class. During illicit synthesis, numerous analogs of PCP can be produced. To date, over 60 psychoactive "designer" derivatives have been identified, and most are undetectable by standard drug testing. This case describes the first laboratory-confirmed use of 3-methyl-PCP, a novel arylcyclohexylamine...

Little information is available regarding the pharmacological activity or relevant blood or tissue concentrations of DMP, and even less is known about other structurally related beta-keto methylenedioxyamphetamine analogs on recreational drug...
