AL-38022A is an indazole derivative drug which is one of a range of similar drugs developed for scientific research and with some possible clinical applications. It acts as a potent and selective agonist for the 5-HT₂ family of serotonin receptors, with highest binding affinity for the 5-HT_2C subtype and around four times less affinity for 5-HT_2A and 5-HT_2B. In drug discrimination tests on animals, it fully substituted for both DOM and 5-MeO-DMT.^[1]
