r/Drugs AMA series: MXE (Methoxetamine)
MXE, or Methoxetamine, is a near chemical analog of Ketamine (AMA), a dissociative, but has been slightly modified chemically in order to increase potency. Users report that it has many similarities to Ketamine, but also some clear differences.
First Synthesis: Unclear. This drug became popular in 2011 (there are no Erowid trip reports prior to 2011), so relatively recent is a safe assumption.
Intended Use: More potent version of Ketamine, an anesthetic. Possible applications as an antidepressant.
Current research into medical applications: None.
Legality: Unscheduled. It is an analogue of Ketamine, which is not a Schedule I or II drug, which makes the Federal Analogue Act unapplicable.
