On the basis of the material available both in the scientific literature and on the web, this paper aims to provide a pharmacological, chemical and behavioural overview of the novel compound methoxetamine. This is a dissociative drug related to ketamine, with a much longer duration of action and intensity of effects. A critical discussion of the availability of information on the web of methoxetamine as a new recreational trend is here provided. Those methodological limitations, which are intrinsically associated with the analysis of online, non-peer reviewed, material, are here discussed as well. It is concluded that the online availability of information on novel psychoactive drugs, such as methoxethanine, may constitute a pressing public health challenge. Better international collaboration levels and novel forms of intervention are necessary to tackle this fast-growing phenomenon.
基于科学文献和网络上可得的资料，本文旨在对新型化合物甲氧基苯环乙胺进行药理学、化学及行为学概述。这是一种与氯胺酮相关的分离性药物，作用持续时间和效果强度长得多。本文对作为一种新的娱乐趋势的甲氧基苯环乙胺在网络上的信息可得性进行了批判性讨论。同时也探讨了与分析在线的、未经同行评审的资料本质相关的那些方法学局限性。得出的结论是，诸如甲氧基苯环乙胺之类新型精神活性药物在网络上的信息可得性可能构成一项紧迫的公共卫生挑战。需要更高水平的国际合作和新型干预形式来应对这一快速发展的现象。
