6-Bromo-MDA, also known as 6-bromo-3,4-methylenedioxyamphetamine or as 2-bromo-4,5-methylenedioxyamphetamine (2-bromo-4,5-MDA), is a lesser-known psychoactive drug of the phenethylamine, amphetamine, and MDxx families related to 3,4-methylenedioxyamphetamine (MDA).[1][2] It is the 6-bromo derivative of MDA.[1] In his 1991 book PiHKAL (Phenethylamines I Have Known and Loved), Alexander Shulgin listed the dose as 350 mg orally and the duration as unknown.[1] 6-Bromo-MDA has been reported to produce amphetamine-like effects with no other details provided.[1] However, Daniel Trachsel reported that 6-bromo-MDA was inactive at doses of up to 350 mg.[2] The drug was first described in the scientific literature by Silvia Sepaveda and colleagues by 1972.[2][3]
