N-Methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP) is an organic compound consisting of a 5-membered lactam. It is a colorless liquid, although impure samples can appear yellow. It is miscible with water and with most common organic solvents. It also belongs to the class of dipolar aprotic solvents such as dimethylformamide and dimethyl sulfoxide.
It uses coping mechanisms like relaxation as an alternative to an anxiety response when anxiety-inducing stimuli are present. [21] In-person practise in actual anxiety-producing situations is encouraged. [21] In many ways, it is comparable to other methods for controlling anxiety, like applied relaxation and anxiety management training. [21]

Piracetam is in the racetams group, with chemical name 2-oxo-1-pyrrolidine acetamide. It is a cyclic derivative of the neurotransmitter GABA [4] and shares the same 2-oxo-pyrrolidone base structure with pyroglutamic acid. Related drugs include the anticonvulsants levetiracetam and brivaracetam, and the putative nootropics aniracetam and ...
Psychotropic alkylamines are alkylamines that share the critical property of not containing an aromatic nucleus, but are still biologically active.While many of these molecules are stimulants, others are antiviral, have competitive NMDA antagonist activity, or are nicotinic receptor antagonists.
