'''2-Methylmethcathinone''' (also known as '''2-MMC''', '''Ortho''' or '''Orthomephedrone''') is a novel lesser-known stimulant-entactogen substance of the [[cathinones|cathinone]] class that induces feelings of euphoria, and stimulation. It is related to other substituted cathinones like for example [[3-MMC]] or [[4-MMC]] (Mephedrone).

2-MMC is shown to be more dopaminergic and less serotonergic compared to [[MDMA]]. This profile makes it more stimulating and less empathogenic, similar to that of [[Amphetamine]]. | 2-MMC is shown to be more dopaminergic and less serotonergic compared to [[MDMA]].

*'''[[Effect::Stimulation]]''' - Orthomephedrone is reported to be highly energizing and stimulating, it encourages physical activities like running, walking, or dancing. The style of stimulation can be described as "forced". This means that at higher doses, it becomes difficult or impossible to keep still as jaw clenching, involuntarily body shakes and vibrations become present.

The style of stimulation can be described as "forced". This means that at higher doses, it becomes difficult or impossible to keep still as jaw clenching, involuntarily body shakes and vibrations become present. Additionally, wave-like feelings of sedation and relaxation may be paradoxically present, although this doesnt happen that frequently as on [[3-MMC]], it can lead users to redose. | ||
