It acts as a selective serotonin releasing agent and is also a MAOI.[1]
PIA is rumored to be a serotonergic neurotoxin on the account of that being reported to be the case for para-chloroamphetamine.
However, PIA is a much weaker 5-HT neurotoxin than is the case for PCA.[2]
Analogs
5-IAI was an attempt to make a non-neurotoxic analog of PIA.
gollark: Maybe throw in a free reusable water bottle too, people like those.
gollark: There's no reason you couldn't do both.
gollark: Isn't the personhood thing about being able to sue them? It's not like they're meaningfully people in that they can directly vote or whatever.
gollark: Mostly by, as far as I can tell, just doing socially-accepted-as-being-environmentally-friendly things, not exactly effective things.
gollark: Are consumers just meant to avoid environment-destroying companies? If they act rationally and selfinterestedly they don't really have a good incentive to.
