Abstract:
Alpha-methyltryptamine (AMT) is a synthetic hallucinogenic indolealkylamine, that was initially studied as a monoamine oxidase inhibitor and used as an antidepressant. Although a popular hallucinogen in the 1960's, use of this drug is currently uncommon. We report a patient with sympathomimetic features who was found to have ingested AMT.
