Drug info - Tryptolene...Any know this

[gammagore]

Hi
So SWIM has come across a dude that has some Tryptolene, not sure if the spelling is right.

SWIM's problem is that he cant find any info on this, SWIM is told it "trips you out".

So does anyone have any idea??is this a psychedelic drug??

Peace

more than likely it is either a tryptamine or a phenethylamine (or an antihistamine/neurotoxin in worst case scenarios)

I've not found any information on tryptolene(or any similar spelling..), and would have to say that it's probably a made up name for another chemical the dealer doesn't want to have to explain everything about every time they sell it... or someone is trying to bullshit you.

MY advice: don't do it unless the dealer drops with you... I wouldn't do anything the offerer won't partake in.

Sounds like some fool that ordered some 5-meo-dmt off the internet and wanted to give it a "Cool street name". Demand the dealer tell you exactly what the active ingredient is and if he doesn't know/tell run away as fast as you can.

Yeah, press the guy hard on what this actually is. "Tryptolene" sounds dubious at best. If he said "Tryptamine" was the name of the drug, then he's certainly full of shit, as Tryptamines are an entire class of drugs (like "opiates" or "amphetamines").

Cheerz for the advise, sounds a bit dodgy to me, Il tell SWIM to get more info from the dude.
If hes not more clear il make sure SWIM stays far away from it.

Thanks again for all reply's.

whoah, swim sells a decent amount of research chemicals, often 2 or 3 different types at a time... is it wrong for him to tell his obviously un-educated clientell that 2 are 'tryptamines' and 1 is a 'phenethylamine', or just refering to one as 'tryptamine'... doesn't nessesarily make me wrong or prove that I'm offering a dubious product, that I'm mis-informed or intentionally mis-informing...... tho it does sugggest it heavily.

I'll say that I've seen swim negotiate a few deals, and he rarely goes into great detail about the contents of the products... even more often mis-representing it to ease the customer. (seen him sell 2c's and DOx's as 'psilicybin' pills at one point..)



note that swim really is SWIM... my lab ferret is graceous enough to have free participants that he doesn't lie about the contents of the drugs... medical saftey before legal safety...

We don't look too kindly on things like that around here. (misrepresentation of RC's; admission of dealing)

Tryptoline probably..

Tryptoline, also known as tetrahydro-β-carboline and tetrahydronorharmane, is a natural organic derivative of beta-carboline. It is an alkaloid chemically related to tryptamines. Derivatives of tryptoline have a variety of pharmacological properties and are known collectively as tryptolines.

Pharmacology
Many tryptolines are competitive selective inhibitors of the enzyme monoamine oxidase type A (MAO-A). 5-Hydroxytryptoline and 5-methoxytryptoline are the most active monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs) with IC50s of 0.5 μM and 1.5 μM respectively, using 5-hydroxytryptamine (serotonin) as substrate.

Tryptolines are also potent reuptake inhibitors of serotonin and epinephrine, with a significantly greater selectivity for serotonin. Comparison of the inhibition kinetics of tetrahydro-β-carbolines for serotonin and epinephrine reuptake to that of the platelet aggregation response to these amines has shown that 5-hydroxymethtryptoline, methtryptoline, and tryptoline are poor inhibitors of reuptake. In all respects 5-hydroxytryptoline and 5-methoxytryptoline showed greater pharmacological activity than the tryptoline and methtryptoline.

Although the in vivo formation of tryptolines has been a matter of controversy, they have profound pharmacological activity.

Damn, good find. Thanks for the legwork.

Yes, it is wrong. His clientele is uneducated, and he is looking for a quick buck. Your post is a sign of everything wrong in the RC market in a few short sentences. There is a clear admission that SWIY is choosing money over the safety of others.

Thank you for making this point. It is vital that people understand how mass-ignorant-consumption and misinformation-spr...

[gammagore]

Well, it turns out that no more information was available to SWIM.
Im told the dude was just adoment that it trips you out.

Swim assures me that he wont be taking any dodgy sounding candy.

Thanks to all for the info.
