Pyr-T (N,N-tetramethylenetryptamine) is a lesser-known, possible psychedelic drug. Pyr-T was first characterized by S. Mitzal.[1] Toxicity testing was later performed by Hunt and Brimblecombe, and although a lethal dosage was found in rats, a value is not given.[2] In the book TiHKAL (Tryptamines I Have Known and Loved), neither the dosage nor the duration are reported.[3]

Pyr-T produces few to no effects in humans, but some behavioral changes were observed in animal tests.[2] Very little data exists about the pharmacological properties, metabolism, and toxicity of pyr-T.
