αMT, or α-Methyltryptamine is a synthetic indole alkaloid molecule of the [[tryptamine]] class. Tryptamines share a core structure comprised of a bicyclic indole heterocycle attached at R<sub>3</sub> to an amino group via an ethyl side chain. AMT is substituted at the alpha carbon R<sub>α</sub> of its tryptamine backbone with a methyl group. | αMT, or α-Methyltryptamine is a synthetic indole alkaloid molecule of the [[tryptamine]] class.

Tolerance to the effects of αMT | Tolerance to the effects of αMT is built [[Time to full tolerance::almost immediately after ingestion]]. After that, it takes about [[Time to half tolerance::14 days]] for the tolerance to be reduced to half and [[Time to zero tolerance::1 month]] to be back at baseline (in the absence of further consumption). AMT presents cross-tolerance with [[Cross-tolerance::all [[psychedelics]]]], meaning that after the consumption of αMT all psychedelics will have a reduced effect. | ||
