 ===DMT===
-* Oral: [[DMT]] is inactive when taken by mouth because enzymes in your stomach (MAO enzymes) break it down. To achieve effects orally, DMT is often combined with MAO inhibitors (MAOIs) which prevent this breakdown. Examples of such combinations include pharmahuasca and ayahuasca (be aware these combinations can be dangerous).
+* Oral: Oral [[DMT]] is inactive because stomach enzymes called MAO enzymes break it down. To experience effects orally, DMT is frequently combined with [[MAO inhibitor]]s (MAOIs), which prevent this breakdown. This combination is known as [[pharmahuasca]]. When the MAOIs and DMT are derived from plant extracts, it is referred to as [[ayahuasca]].
 * Insufflation (snorting): DMT absorbed through the nose may drip down your throat and be swallowed. If swallowed, it will be broken down in your stomach and have no effect.
