Butylone

  Butylone is a drug which is commonly sold on the street along with ethylone as a substitute for MDMA and methylone due to methylone's declining availability on the research chemical market. There is a behavioral and pharmacological similarities between butylone and MDMA, the observed subjective effects of both substances are not completely identical.

Butylone is suggested to be less potent than its relatives methylone and ethylone as well as possessing more classic stimulant as opposed to entactogenic effects. Butylone acts as a mixed inhibitor/releasing agent of serotonin, norepinephrine, and dopamine. These are the neurotransmitters in charge of pleasure, reward, motivation and focus. This is done by inhibiting by consumption and reabsorption of the neurotransmitters after they have performed their function of transmitting a neural impulse, essentially allowing them to accumulate and be reused, causing physically stimulating and euphoric effects.
