Phencyclidine (PCP) is believed to be the first arylcyclohexylamine with recognized anesthetic properties, but several arylcyclohexylamines were described before PCP in the scientific literature, beginning with PCA (1-phenylcyclohexan-1-amine) the synthesis of which was first published in 1907. PCP itself was discovered in 1926 but not ...
Phencyclidine or phenylcyclohexyl piperidine (PCP), also known in its use as a street drug as angel dust among other names, is a dissociative anesthetic mainly used recreationally for its significant mind-altering effects. [1] [4] PCP may cause hallucinations, distorted perceptions of sounds, and violent behavior.
Pentamidine is an antimicrobial medication used to treat African trypanosomiasis, leishmaniasis, Balamuthia infections, [2] babesiosis, and to prevent and treat pneumocystis pneumonia (PCP) in people with poor immune function. [1]
Phencyclidine, a high-affinity ligand of PCP site 2. PCP site 2 is a binding site that was identified as a high- affinity target for phencyclidine (PCP), an anesthetic and dissociative hallucinogen that acts primarily as an NMDA receptor antagonist . [ 1 ]
Phencyclidine, a hallucinogenic and dissociative recreational drug, also known as angel dust 3-HO-PCP, a designer drug related to phencyclidine; 3-MeO-PCP, a designer drug related to phencyclidine; 4-MeO-PCP, a research chemical related to phencyclidine; Pneumocystis pneumonia, a form of pneumonia caused by the yeast-like fungus Pneumocystis ...
PCPr is an arylcyclohexylamine dissociative anesthetic drug with hallucinogenic and stimulant effects. It is around the same potency as phencyclidine, although slightly less potent than the ethyl homologue eticyclidine, [1] and has reportedly been sold as a designer drug in Germany and other European countries since the late 1990s.
Pneumocystis pneumonia (PCP), also known as Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PJP), is a form of pneumonia that is caused by the yeast-like fungus Pneumocystis jirovecii. [ 3 ] [ 4 ] Pneumocystis specimens are commonly found in the lungs of healthy people although it is usually not a cause for disease. [ 5 ]
Methylenedioxyphencyclidine (3',4'-MD-PCP, MDPCP) is a recreational designer drug with dissociative effects. It is an arylcyclohexylamine derivative, with similar effects to related drugs such as 3-MeO-PCP and 4-MeO-PCP .
