Well You would actually be supprised that Pma isnt floating around as much as people think it is
and i fucking hate pmxx! Anyway
PMA stands for para-methoxyamphetamine. It is also known as 4 MA, or 4-methoxyamphetamine.
The legal status at this point in time i believe is as follows: it may have changed but i think the schedules still stand
Australia – Schedule III (2002)
Canada – Schedule III (2002)
UK – Scheduel I, Class A (2001)
US – Schedule I (2001)
Pmxx's nature is of this:
PMA causes a release of serotonin and also acts as a monoamine oxidase inhibitor. This dual action contributes to the dangerous nature of PMA.
What are the effects of PMA?
At low doses (<40mg), PMA will cause stimulation, mild visuals, pupil dilation, nystagmus, altered consciousness, nausea, and elevated body temperature. Basically, it produces many of the same initial effects as MDMA.
At slightly higher doses (60+mg), PMA can cause a sudden and dangerous increase in body temperature, blood pressure, and heart rate.
In what ways is PMA dangerous?
PMA is dangerous in its own right due the sharp dose-response curve that it exhibits - a relatively moderate increase in dose can produce dangerous (and possibly lethal) effects. This, combined with its action as a cardiopulmonary stimulant and MAOI, makes PMA extremely dangerous when taken in combination, especially with other amphetamines.
PMA is dangerous in practice because it has been sold in pill form as MDMA. The habit of many MDMA users to consume multiple doses at once is what has lent PMA its “killer” image in recent years.
Why is PMA being sold as MDMA?
PMA is being sold as MDMA because it is easier and safer to make - the precursors are not as strictly controlled/watched. Also, the effects of a low PMA dose can be confused with the effects of MDMA. This makes PMA seem to be a good substitute for manufacturers who do not want to make MDMA.
How does PMA react to various testing kits?
Note – this is the authoritative list of reactions to reagents. This list has been confirmed with testing kit retailers and other knowledgeable and trustworthy people.
Marquis – No reaction
Mecke – No reaction
Mandelin – Dark green
Simon – No reaction
Robadope – Reddish/Purple
Has PMA ever been combined with MDxx in the same pill?
YES! PMA has been combined with MDMA in order to fool testing kits while minimising manufacturing costs.
A way to combat this is by using the EZ-Test Xtreme (or other comparable testing kit), which combines two reagents – Simon’s and Robadope’s. The Simon’s reagent will indicate the presence of MDxx while Robadope’s will indicate PMA.
However, the notion that PMA is combined with MDMA in order to enhance the positive effects or 'make you roll harder' is wrong; as stated earlier, PMA in combination is even more dangerous than PMA alone.
