4-HO-EPT, also known as 4-hydroxy-N-ethyl-N-propyltryptamine or as eprocin, is a psychedelic drug of the tryptamine family, which is structurally related to psilocin (4-HO-DMT).[1] It was encountered as a novel designer drug in Japan by 2021.[1]
Use and effects
4-HO-EPT was not included nor mentioned in Alexander Shulgin‘s book TiHKAL (Tryptamines I Have Known and Loved).[2] Subsequently however, an assumed prodrug of 4-HO-EPT, 4-AcO-EPT, has emerged as a novel designer drug, and has been said based on online anecdotal reports to have a dose of 20 to 30 mg orally.[3][4]

4-HO-EPT is a potent full agonist of the serotonin 5-HT2A, 5-HT2B, and 5-HT2C receptors.[5][6] It has one to two orders of magnitude greater potency as a serotonin 5-HT2A and 5-HT2B receptor agonist than as a serotonin 5-HT2C receptor agonist.[5] The drug also shows affinity for other serotonin receptors, such as the serotonin 5-HT1A and 5-HT6 receptors.[6] 4-HO-EPT produces the head-twitch response, a behavioral proxy of psychedelic effects, in rodents.[5]
Pharmacokinetics
The metabolism of 4-HO-EPT has been studied.[7]
