Description: MDPHP is a stimulant in the cathinone and pyrovalerone classes, making it structurally similar to α-PVP, α-PHP, and MDPV. It has a very limited history of use, having shown up primarily in Europe in the mid-2010s. There’s reason to believe the purity and content of MDPHP batches has been highly variable, sometimes involving other cathinones being sold as it, which makes it harder to characterize its effects. A lot of the attention on the drug has come from the media. Reports of people using “monkey dust” (said to either be MDPHP or MDPV) and then becoming violent, psychotic, or suicidal have spread around the UK and Australia in particular. Claims suggesting it has a high chance of making people psychotic or violent are largely baseless. Stimulant psychosis is possible with high doses, prolonged use, and/or sleep deprivation, but it is not the typical effect nor is it unique to MDPHP; it can also easily happen when abusing common stimulants like cocaine or methamphetamine. With reasonable doses and sleep, psychosis is very unlikely.
