Chemistry:5-MeO-NsBT
5-MeO-NsBT, also known as 5-methoxy-N-sec-butyltryptamine, is a psychoactive drug of the tryptamine and 5-methoxytryptamine families.[1][2] It emerged as a novel designer drug online in December 2022.[1] More specifically, its chemical synthesis and the claimed properties and effects of 5-MeO-NsBT were posted on a specialized psychoactive drug forum.[1]
The dose of the drug is said to be 3 to 10 mg orally and its onset is said to be 20 to 30 minutes, whereas its duration was not specified.[1] Its effects were reported to include mildly increased empathy and sociability, more fluid thinking, easy and pleasant writing, intoxication, confusion, and after-effects such as mild depression.[1] In addition, possible anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects were reported.[1] No psychedelic or hallucinogenic effects were described.[1]
The drug has not otherwise been encountered, for instance sold online or in drug seizures, as of 2023.[1] It is not a controlled substance in Canada as of 2025.[3]
