Methylhexanamine, commonly known as 1, 3-dimethylamylamine or DMAA, is an indirect sympathomimetic drug. Methylhexanamine has been marketed under many names as an energy-boosting dietary supplement, but its safety has been questioned as a number of adverse events and at least 5 deaths have been associated with methylhexanamine-containing supplements.
