"Miprocin" redirects here. It is not to be confused with Mupirocin.
Miprocin (4-Hydroxy-MiPT) is a artificially-made, substituted aromatic compound and a lesser-known psychedelic drug from the tryptamine family. Miprocin is part of the class of drugs known as serotonergic psychedelics (which includes magic mushrooms, LSD and mescaline), and its effects and molecular structure resemble that of the tryptamine psilocin. To date, there have been no reports of deaths from 4-HO-MiPT.

History
4-HO-MiPT was first synthesized by Alexander Shulgin. In his book TIHKAL (Tryptamines I Have Known and Loved). 4-HO-MiPT is a synthetic psychedelic considered similar in activity to psilocin. It is relatively uncommon and has only a short history of human use.
Chemistry
Miprocin is the 4-hydroxyl analog of the chemical N-Methyl-N-isopropyltryptamine as well as the two-carbon homologue and possible structural analog of 4-HO-DMT.
Pharmacology
Miprocin is a serotonergic. Its method of action comes from its partial agonist activity at 5-HT2A and 5-HT1A serotonin receptors and serotonin neurotransmitters located in the prefrontal cortex in the human brain.
Toxicity
Very little is known about the overrall toxicity of Miprocin. The chemicial structure of it is very similar to Psilocin and it isn't known to be associated with compulsive use and physical dependence however, this being a research chemical and because its use is so uncommon, it should therefore be considered & treated like an experimental chemical. Although some people are willing to ingest these chemicals for their effects, it is not reasonable to assume that this chemical is in any way 'safe' to use recreationally.

The duration is listed as 4-6 hours, although other sources list the duration as 5-8 hours, depending on certain variables (such as metabolism, food interaction).
Legality
4-HO-MiPT is a unscheduled drug in the United States. It may be considered an analog of psilocin, in which case could lead to persecution under the Analog Act of the USA.
The substance could also be considered illegal in the UK under the Misuse of Drugs Act 1971.
Miprocin was scheduled as "hälsofarliga varor" (health-threatening substances, having no acceptable medical use) in Sweden on Nov 1, 2005.[3]
