'''3,5-Dimethoxy-4-propoxyamphetamine''' (also known as '''3C-P''' or '''3C-Proscaline''') is a lesser-known [[psychoactive class::psychedelic]] substance of the [[chemical class::Substituted amphetamines|amphetamine]] class. Although its name suggests it may be related to the [[2C-x]] family, this is not the case since it is the 3-Carbon analog of [[proscaline]]. | '''3,5-Dimethoxy-4-propoxyamphetamine''' (also known as '''3C-P''' or '''3C-Proscaline''') is a lesser-known [[psychoactive class::psychedelic]] substance of the [[chemical class::Substituted amphetamines|amphetamine]] class.

The original synthesis date of 3C-P is unknown. Its theoretical synthesis is briefly mentioned in [[Alexander Shulgin|Alexander Shulgin's]] book [[PiHKAL]], in which it is speculated to have psychedelic properties and a presumed dosage range of 20 to 40 milligrams.<ref>https://erowid.org/library/books_online/pihkal/pihkal140.shtml</ref> It is typically sold on the online [[research chemical]] market. | |||
Very little data exists about the pharmacological properties, metabolism, and toxicity of 3C-P, and it has only a brief history of human usage. It is highly advised to use [[harm reduction practices]] if using this substance. | |||
