Tetrahydroharmine (THH), also known as 7-methoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroharman (7-MeO-THH), is a fluorescent indole alkaloid and β-carboline that occurs in the tropical liana species Banisteriopsis caapi.

==Use and effects== THH has been reported to produce psychoactive effects similar to those of harmaline in humans. It has been reported to be about one-third as potent as harmaline at a dose of 300mg orally. THH is believed to be one of the constituents of Banisteriopsis caapi responsible for the hallucinogenic effects of the plant. The duration of THH is unknown.
