PVT is a synthetic stimulant in the pyrrolidinophenone class that has been sold online as a designer drug. It is structurally related to α-PVP, with a thiophene ring replacing the phenyl ring.1 First identified in Japan in 2013, PVT is uncommon and is suspected to be less potent than α-PVP. People who have used it report stimulating effects.
