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

'''2-Methylmethcathinone''' (also known as '''2-MMC''', '''Orto''' or '''Orthomephedrone''') is a novel lesser-known stimulant-entactogen substance of the [[cathinones|cathinone]] class that induces powerful euphoria and strong, energizing stimulation. It is related to other bath salts like for example [[3-MMC]] or [[4-MMC]] (Mephedrone). The mechanism of action is not fully studied, but dopamine

, serotonin and norepinephrine releasing activity is known to be involved.

It is highly advised to use [[ harm reduction practices]] if using this substance as it has a very short history of use.

*'''[[MDMA]]''' - The neurotoxic effects of MDMA may be increased when combined with other stimulants.

*'''[[Cocaine]]''' - This combination may increase strain on the heart.

*'''[[Alcohol]]''' - Combining alcohol with stimulants can be dangerous due to the risk of accidental over-intoxication. Stimulants mask alcohol's depressant effects, which is what most people use to assess their degree of intoxication. Once the stimulant wears off, the depressant effects will be left unopposed, which can result in blackouts and severe respiratory depression. If mixing, the user should strictly limit themselves to only drinking a certain amount of alcohol per hour.
