Methoxpropamine (MXPr, 2-Oxo-3'-methoxy-PCPr) is a dissociative anesthetic drug of the arylcyclohexylamine class and NMDA receptor antagonist[1] that is closely related to substances such as methoxetamine and PCPr.[2] It has been sold online as a designer drug, first being identified in Denmark in October 2019,[3] and is illegal in Finland.[4]
