4-Methylmethcathinone or Mephedrone is a stimulant drug related to cathinone and methcathinone. The effects of 4-Methylmethcathinone are reportedly similar to those of similar drugs such as MDMA and methylone.^{[citation needed]}

[edit] History

The drug was used in early products by the legal high company Neorganics^[1], but the range was discontinued in January 2008 after the government of Israel, where the company is based, made 4-Methylmethcathinone illegal. The chemical can still be purchased from some online stores but is generally considered a legal 'grey area', as it is an analogue of class-A controlled substance methcathinone, and as such not a substance frequently found in legal drugs. It has been reported to be sold on the illicit market as a controlled substance analogue, but little is known about its pharmacology or toxicology as yet.^[1]
