5-MeS-DMT
5-MeS-DMT, also known as 5-methylthio-N,''N''-dimethyltryptamine or as 5-methylthio-DMT, is a lesser-known psychedelic drug of the tryptamine family. It is the 5-methylthio derivative of dimethyltryptamine and is an analogue of 5-MeO-DMT.
In his book TiHKAL, Alexander Shulgin lists the dose as 15 to 30mg smoked and its duration as less than 1hour. In individual reports, the duration was 10 to 30minutes. The effects included feeling stoned and no visuals, among others. It was also described as coming on very fast and being quite intense. The drug is described as being about half as potent as 5-MeO-DMT.

History
