5-MeO-MET, also known as 5-methoxy-N-methyl-N-ethyltryptamine, is a relatively rare designer drug from the tryptamine family, related to compounds such as methylethyltryptamine (MET) and 5-MeO-DMT.[1][2][3][4] It was first synthesised in the 1960s and was studied to a limited extent, with studies finding it to be more potent in animal behavioral tests than 5-MeO-DMT.[1][5][6] It was first identified on the illicit market in June 2012 in Sweden.[7] It was made illegal in Norway in 2013,[8] and is controlled under analogue provisions in numerous other jurisdictions.
