4-Propionoxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine (4-PrO-DMT, or O-Propionylpsilocin) is a synthetic psychedelic drug from the tryptamine family with psychedelic effects, and is believed to act as a prodrug for psilocin.[1] It produces a head-twitch response in mice.[1] It has been sold online as a designer drug since May 2019. It was first identified as a new psychoactive substance in Sweden, in July 2019.[2] A number of related derivatives have been synthesized as prodrugs of psilocin for medical applications.[3]
