Also known as α-Me-5-HT, alpha-methyl-5-HT, alpha-methyl-5-hydroxytryptamine, α-methylserotonin
α-Methylserotonin (αMS), also known as α-methyl-5-hydroxytryptamine (α-methyl-5-HT) or as 5-hydroxy-α-methyltryptamine (5-HO-αMT), is a tryptamine derivative closely related to the neurotransmitter serotonin (5-HT). It acts as a non-selective serotonin receptor agonist and has been used extensively in scientific research to study the function of the serotonin system.

==Use and effects== According to Alexander Shulgin in his book TiHKAL (Tryptamines I Have Known and Loved), αMS is well-studied in preclinical research but has not been tested in humans.
