Alpha-methyltryptamine (AMT) is a novel psychoactive substance available over the Internet. This study used European Monitoring Centre for Drugs and Drug Addiction (EMCDDA) Internet snapshot methodology to investigate the availability and cost of AMT in March/October 2012. From March to October 2012, there was a decrease in the number of Internet sites selling AMT (44 to 31). AMT powder was cheaper in "bulk" (100 g) than in "recreational-user" (100 mg) quantities, and there was a decrease in price. Data from Internet snapshot surveys complement and allow triangulation of data from other sources to build a more detailed picture on availability and use of novel psychoactive substances.
α-甲基色胺(AMT)是一种可通过互联网获取的新型精神活性物质。本研究采用欧洲药物和药物成瘾监测中心(EMCDDA)的互联网快照方法,调查了2012年3月/10月AMT的可得性和成本。2012年3月至10月,销售AMT的互联网站点数量有所减少(从44个降至31个)。AMT粉末“批量”(100克)的价格比“娱乐性使用者”(100毫克)用量的价格便宜,且价格有所下降。互联网快照调查的数据补充了其他来源的数据,并允许对这些数据进行三角测量,以更详细地了解新型精神活性物质的可得性和使用情况。
