Iris (drug)

Iris, also known as 2-methoxy-5-ethoxy-4-methylamphetamine or as DOM-5ETO, is a drug and a substituted amphetamine. It is also the 5-ethoxy analogue of DOM. The drug was first synthesized by Alexander Shulgin. In his book PiHKAL, the minimum dose is listed as 9 mg orally and the duration as unknown. Iris produces few to no effects. Very little data exists about the pharmacological properties, metabolism, and toxicity of IRIS. The drug is one of Shulgin's "ten classic ladies", a series of methylated DOM derivatives. It is not an explicitly controlled substance in the United States, but may be considered scheduled as an isomer of DOET. Iris is a controlled substance in Canada due to phenethylamine blanket-ban language.
