5-Cl-AMT

5-Cl-AMT (5-chloro-α-methyltryptamine; PAL-542) combines three properties with harm-reduction implications: it is a serotonin-dopamine releasing agent, a potent 5-HT2A agonist, and an in vitro MAO-A inhibitor. Treat it as an MAOI during the session window even though clinical reversibility is not established. Start with a microtest of 0.5-1 mg to gauge sensitivity; community trials report activity at 1-2 mg and full days' worth of effects from 8-12 mg. Because the come-up is slow and the duration long, redosing is usually unnecessary and can produce a late, heavy body load. Volumetric dosing is strongly advised so that sub-1 mg adjustments are possible; weigh at least 10-20 mg on a 0.001 g scale, dissolve to make 1 mg/mL or 0.5 mg/mL, and measure with an oral syringe.
