    Product Description

    Pentedrone (Item No. 11011) is a substituted cathinone and designer drug that is similar to methcathinone, a controlled psychoactive stimulant. Isopentedrone is a variant of pentedrone in which the α-propyl and β-keto groups have switched positions. This by-product of the synthesis of pentedrone has been detected in seized designer drug powders.1 The physiological and toxicological effects of this compound have not been characterized. This product is intended for forensic and research purposes.

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
