MDPHP (3',4'-Methylenedioxy-α-pyrrolidinohexiophenone) is a stimulant of the cathinone class originally developed in the 1960s,[1] which has been reported as a novel designer drug. In the UK its slang name is monkey dust.[2][3] It is closely related to the potent stimulant MDPV though with slightly milder effects, and has been used as an alternative in some countries following the banning of MDPV.[4][5][6][7]

MDPHP is specifically listed as a controlled substance in Japan [8] and Hungary,[9] and is controlled under analogue provisions in a number of other jurisdictions.

Documented fatalities

A case of a "fatal acute intoxication caused by MDPHP" in a 48 year old male was reported in February 2022 by physicians at an Italian hospital.[10]
