3C-P is a [[psychedelic]] [[phenethylamine]], sometimes used as an [[entheogen]]. It has structural and pharmacodynamic properties similar to the drugs [[mescaline]], [[proscaline]], and [[amphetamine]]s.  Little information exists on the human [[pharmacology]] of 3C-P, but a [[psychedelic]] dosage appears to be 20-40mg, and is accompanied by [[stimulant]] effects.

Chemically 3C-P is 4-propoxy-3,5-dimethoxyamphetamine, with the formula [[carbon|C]]<sub>14</sub>[[hydrogen|H]]<sub>23</sub>[[nitrogen|N]]<sub>1</sub>[[oxygen|O]]<sub>3</sub>.  Although its name is similar to the psychedelic phenethylamine [[2C-P]], it is much closer in structure to mescaline, and proscaline.  3C-P is the 3-[[carbon]] [[homologous series|homologue]] of proscaline.
