However it is worth noting that it only has a structural similarities to Ketamine and Methoxetamine is a totally different substance. This is a research chemical. Drug users should be aware that this compound is geared towards the scientific community. It is also trademarked stating "Methoxetamine is a legal Ketamine alternative for the laboratory research."<ref name="Methoxetamine™">[www.methoxetamine.co.uk/]</ref> |

Methoxetamine or 3-MeO-2-Oxo-PCE is a chemical of the arylcyclohexylamine class. It is an analogue of ketamine that also contains structural features of eticyclidine and 3-MeO-PCP. Like ketamine, it is thought to behave as a NMDA receptor antagonist and dopamine reuptake inhibitor, though it has not been formally profiled pharmacologically. Anecdotal reports suggest a longer duration than ketamine.[1] Methoxetamine differs from many other dissociative anesthetics of the arylcyclohexylamine class in that it was designed for grey-market distribution. Methoxetamine is a product of rational drug design: its N-ethyl group was chosen to increase potency, lessing the risk of Interstitial cystitis that can result from the accumulation of ketamine-like metabolites in the urinary bladder.[2]
